WAVEFORMS (CONTINUED)
Microcurrent
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
Microcurrent is a monophasic waveform of very low intensity. The literature
reports beneficial effects of this waveform in the treatment of wounds. The
physiological working mechanism of this effect is as yet not clearly
understood. It is thoughtto stimulate tissue healing by stimulating the ‘current
of injury’, a current which naturally occurs in healing tissue.
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0-1,000 µA
Polarity Positive, Negative, or Alternating
Treatment Time 1-60 Min
Available on channels 1, 2
Duty Cycle 50%
Frequency 0.1-1,000 Hz
Mode Selection CC
IRMS [mA} 0-0.71 mA
DC component No
IFC Premodulated (Traditional 2 Pole)
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
Premodulated Current is a medium frequency waveform. Current comes out
of one channel (two electrodes). The current intensity is modulated: it
increases and decreases at a regular frequency (the Amplitude Modulation
Frequency).
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0-100 mA (CC) 0-100 V (CV))
Carrier Frequency 2,000-10,000 Hz
Beat Fixed (Sweep Off) 1-200 Hz
Sweep Low Beat Frequency 1- 199 Hz
Sweep High Beat Frequency 2-200 Hz
Cycle Time Continuous or User Defined
Mode Selection CC or CV
Treatment Time (STIM) 1-60 Min
Treatment Time (COMBO) 1-30 Min
Available on Channel 1, 2
DC component No
Diadynamic Waveforms
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
The Diadynamic waveforms are rectified alternating currents. The alternating
current is modified (rectified) to allow the current to flow in one direction
only.
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0- 60 mA
Treatment Time 1-60 min
Available on channels 1, 2
Mode Selection CC
MF
(Monophasé Fixe)Frequency of 50 Hz :phase duration of 10 ms followed by a
pause of 10 ms.
IRMS [mA] 0-40 mA
DF
(Diphasé Fixe) Frequency of 100 Hz:phase duration of 10 ms
CP
(Modulé en Courtes Périodes) : 1 second of MF followed abruptly
by 1 second of DF.
LP
(Modulé en Longues Périodes) : Rhythmical fluctuation between
2 MF currents.
CP-iso
:(Courtes Periodes Isodynamic)A combination of MF and DF waveforms.CP-
id: Same as CP-iso.
IRMS [mA] 0-56.57 mA
DC component Yes
Russian
Advice on size and type of electrodes to be used is given in device GUI "treatment guidelines" feature
Russian Current is a sinusoidal waveform, delivered in bursts or series of
pulses. This method was claimed by its author (Kotz) to produce maximal
muscle strengthening effects without significant discomfort to the patient.
Output Mode Electrodes
Output Intensity 0-100 mA (CC) 0-100 V (CV)
Channel Mode Single, Reciprocal, Co-Contract
Duty Cycle 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%
Mode Selection CC or CV
Anti-Fatigue Not available
Cycle Time Continuous or User Defined
Carrier Frequency 2,500 Hz
Burst Frequency (Anti-Fatigue Off) 1-100 bps
Ramp 0-5 sec
Treatment Time 1-60 min
Available on Channels 1, 2
IRMS [mA] 0-50 mA
DC component No
