• In the place of the arrangement of the electrodes it is necessary to estimate the continuity of the skin
and exteroceptive sensation.
• In order to decrease the resistance of skin you can clean it with alcohol or water with soap, after wiping
leave the skin moist. Small skin damages should be secured with medical or cosmetic petroleum jelly.
• During the first therapy it is necessary to use rather lower doses of current than the recommended ones.
Intensity (sensory threshold level or motor threshold) depending on the goal of therapy, it is necessary
to increase in accordance with the patient’s sensations and maintaining comfort during treatment.
• In case of reporting burning it is necessary to stop the treatment and examine the skin.
• The electrodes should be used in accordance with the indications of the manufacturer and should be
replaced periodically, depending on the degree of wear. Loss of electrical properties by the electrodes
causes the risk of burning the patient.
• Due to the need to ensure the accuracy of the output parameters of the device, it is not possible to set
amplitudes lower than:
o 0,3 mA – unipolar currents in CC mode,
o 0,5 mA – bipolar currents in CC mode,
o 1,5 V or 2 V – currents in CV mode.
These values are so small that they do not pose a threat to the patient and do not cause unpleasant
sensations.
