Chapter 1 : INTRODUCTION lected for therapy, and the type of pain. In many patients, the reduction or elimination of pain lasts longer than the actual period of stimulation (sometimes EXPLANATION OF PAIN as much as three to four times longer). In others, pain is only modified while stimulation actually occurs. You may discuss this with your physician or Pain is a warning system and the body’s method of telling us that something is wrong.
Chapter 3 : WARNINGS Chapter 4: GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1. Caution should be used in applying TENS to patients suspected of having heart disease. Further clinical data is needed to show there are no adverse results. The AGF-602 TENS is a battery operated pulse generator that sends electrical impulses electrodes to the body and reach the nerves causing pain. The 2. The safety of TENS devices for use during pregnancy or birth has not been established.
Chapter 6 : TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS The technical specification details of AGF-602 TENS are as follows. MECHANISM 1. Channel TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Dual, isolated between channels 2. Pulse Ampulitude Adjustable, 0-80 mA peak into 500 ohm load each channel 3. Pulse Rate 4. Pulse Width Adjustable, from 2 to 150 Hz Adjustable, from 30 to 260 microseconds 5. Modulation Mode Pulse width is automatically varied in cycle pattern over an interval of nominally 6.5 seconds.
The label attached to the back of device directly through the area of pain or localized enervation), a quick pulse rate (setting greater than 80Hz on the Pulse Rate Control) is desired. The patient contains important message about this device- model, serial number, supply should not perceive individual pulses but rather have the sensation of steady continuous stimulation. voltage, CE number and classification.
Chapter 11 : ATTACHMENT OF ELECTRODE LEAD WIRES Chapter 14: ELECTRODE PLACEMENT The wires provided with the system insert into the jack sockets located on top of the device. Holding the insulated portion of the connector, push the plug The placement of electrodes can be one of the most important parameters in achieving success with TENS therapy. Of utmost importance is the willing- end of the wire into one of the jacks (see drawing); one or two sets of wires may be used.
2. Excess hair may be clipped with scissors; do not shave stimulation area. 3. Wipe the area with the skin preparation your clinician has recommended. 2. It may be helpful to improve repeated application by spreading a few drops of cold water over the adhesive and turn the surface up to air dry. Over Saturation with water will reduce the adhesive properties. Let this dry. Apply electrodes as directed. 4.
3. On/Off Switch and Intensity Control : If both controls are in the off-position (white markings on the housing), the device is switched off. By turning the controls clockwise, the appropriate channel is switched on and the impulse display led will illuminate and begin to pulse according to the fre quency set. The current strength of the impulses transmitted to the electrodes increases further when the control is turned clockwise. 6.
BATTERYCHARGING (1) Plug the charger into any working 110 or 220/240v mains electrical outlet. The use of any attachment not supplied with the charger may result in the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. 9. Check/Replace the Battery: Over time, in order to ensure the functional safety of TENS, changing the battery is necessary. 1. Make sure that both intensity controls are (2) Follow the battery manufacturer’s instructions for charging time.
4. Return the device to the carrying box with sponge foam to ensure that the unit is well-protected before transportation. - whether the cable is correctly connected to the device. The cables should be inserted completely into the sockets. 5. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the battery compartment (acid may leak from used batteries and - whether the impulse display led is illuminated. If necessary, insert a new battery.
