14.10.2.4 Patient position
The patient is placed in a position he/she finds the most comfortable: in the prone or side lying position, or
seated.
14.10.2.5 Stimulation energy
The energy must be increased gradually until it causes clearly visible muscle twitches, which are required
to induce hyperaemia.
The mi-RANGE function makes it possible to work with certainty within a therapeutically eective range.
The stimulator prompts you to firstly increase the level of energy:
• a beep sound accompanies the flashing “+” symbols.
• When it detects that the muscles have started to pump, the “+” symbols will stop flashing. You are at the
minimum level of energy that provides therapeutic results.
If the stimulation is well tolerated by the patient, it is advised to increase the energy level slightly.
At the end of the treatment or during a break, a statistic showing the percentage of time spent in the
eective range will appear on the screen.
