Treatment Locations
The treatment should be conducted with the adequate applicator regarding treatment surface. The small applicators
(5mm, 10mm, 15mm) are better suited for small surfaces such as small tendons or joints. The larger applicators (25mm
and 40mm) are the best options for treating larger surfaces such as large muscles or joints.
The default protocols provide quick access to different standard parameters. The standard frequency is set to 15hz
but can be increased for better patient comfort. The standard number of pulses is set to 2500 pulses as per clinical
literature recommendations:
• SMART protocols 1 and 2 enable a quick energy level decrease also to maximise patient comfort. The number
of pulses increases to compensate the reduced energy delivery induced by reducing the air pressure input
inside the handpiece,
• SMART Protocol 3 is indicated as a preset for large surfaces to provide suf cient energy transmission on larger
treatment surfaces,
• SMART protocols can be used on all indicated parts of the body regarding previous applicator and settings
parameters.
See table 2 in section 4.1 for information of preset protocols.
