  • Page 4: General Information

    1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 Device Information InTENSity™ 10 TENS stimulator is a portable electro-therapy device featuring Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), which is used for pain relief and electrical muscle stimulation. The stimulator sends a gentle electrical current to underlying nerves and muscle group via electrodes applied on the skin.

  • Page 5: Indication For Use

    HOW TENS WORKS There is nothing "magic" about Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulations (TENS). TENS is intended to be used to relieve pain. The TENS unit sends comfortable impulses through the skin that stimulate the nerve (or nerves) in the treatment area. In many cases, this stimulation will greatly reduce or eliminate the pain sensation the patient feels.

  • Page 6: Contraindications

    2.1 Contraindications This device should not be used for symptomatic local pain relief unless etiology is established or unless a pain syndrome has been diagnosed. 2. This device should not be used when cancerous lesions are present in the treatment area. 3.
  • Page 7 7. Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerves, particularly in patients with a known sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex. 8. Stimulation should not be applied over the neck or mouth. Severe spasm of the laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles may occur and the contraction may be strong enough to close the airway or cause difficulty in breathing.
  • Page 8 CAUTIONS: Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. 2. This device is for single patient use only. 3. Keep yourself informed of the contraindications. 4. This device is not intended for use on an unattended patient who is non-compliant, emotionally disturbed, has dementia, or low IQ.
