C. TENS- Symmetrical Biphasic- Figure 4.5
The Symmetrical Biphasic waveform has a short pulse duration and
is capable of strong stimulation of nerve fibers in the skin and in
muscle. This waveform is often used in portable muscle stimulation
units and some TENS devices. Because of its short pulse duration,
the patient typically tolerates the current well, even at relatively high
intensities.

D. High Voltage Pulsed Current (HVPC)- Figure 4.6
The High Voltage Pulsed Current (HVPC) has a very brief pulse
duration characterized by 2 distinct peaks delivered at high voltage.
The waveform is monophasic (current flows in one direction only).
The high voltage causes a decreased skin resistance, making the
current comfortable and easy to tolerate.

E. VMS™- Figure 4.7
VMS is a symmetrical biphasic waveform with a 100 μsec interphase
interval. Because the pulse is relatively short, the waveform has
a low skin load, making it suitable for applications requiring high
intensities such as in muscle strengthening protocols.
