information provided in this manual.
DANGERS
Electrodes - Any Chattanooga Electrode with a minimum
active area of cm may be used with this device. This
includes Chattanooga square cm x cm (” x ”), and
StimCare Carbon FM. Use of an electrode with an area
less than cm can cause burns when the unit is used at
higher intensities. Consult your clinician prior to using any
electrode less than cm.
Dangerous voltage – Stimulus delivered by the TENS
waveforms of this device, in certain configurations, will
deliver a charge of up to microcoulombs (C) or greater
per pulse and may be sucient to cause electrocution.
Electrical current of this magnitude must not flow through
the thorax because it may cause a cardiac arrhythmia.
Biohazardous materials – Handle, clean and dispose of
components and accessories that have come in contact
with bodily fluids according to National, Local and Facility
rules, regulations and procedures.
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
