Introduction The Reprieve by Regenesis® and Reprieve DUO by Regenesis ™ (Reprieve) are home-use shortwave diathermy devices designed to relieve pain and alleviate muscle spasms. Please read this entire instruction manual carefully before using this device. These devices are designed for use by the individual to whom it is prescribed.
About Shortwave Diathermy Shortwave diathermy (SWD) uses electromagnetic energy to produce a thermal effect in tissues. The Reprieve by Regenesis® device can operate in continuous or pulsed wave modes with varying power levels. As the pulsed mode has lower average power, potential hazards typically associated with the continuous wave mode may not apply.
Contraindications: Conditions under which the device should not be • used as the risk of use outweighs potential benefit (e.g., reasons not to use this device). EMC: Electromagnetic Compatibility – the ability of the Reprieve • device to operate effectively in the presence of other electronic devices.
The Reprieve by Regenesis® device (Reprieve) is indicated to • generate deep heating within body tissues for the treatment of conditions such as relief of pain and muscle spasms. Reprieve is intended for adults only (22 years of age and older). • Contraindications NEVER use Reprieve if you: •...
