Introduction
Intended Use Statement
The Microstim2 is intended to be used for the alleviation of disability related to
muscular weakness or inactivity. The weakness may be due to an upper motor
neurone lesion or disuse atrophy.
The Microstim2 can be used to strengthen muscles, reduce spasticity, increase
range of movement, reduce pain, reduce oedema and increase local blood flow.
Stimulation can also modulate the central nervous system promoting neuroplasticity.
The Microstim2 is designed for use in home healthcare, residential and hospital or
healthcare environments.
General Description
The Microstim2 neuromuscular stimulator is intended for the exercise of weak or
1
paralysed muscle. It is designed to be simple to use with the minimum necessary
user controls. The output stimulation intensity is ramped at the beginning and
end of each cycle by pulse width modulation to produce a comfortable sensation.
Powered by a standard 9V battery, this makes it ideal for use at home for regular
exercise.
