1.1 Introduction
The LT3011A Ref.LTK545 is a battery operated pulse
generator that sends electrical impulses to the body and
reach the nerves and underlying muscle group,this is a unit
to be used for pain relief,muscle stimulation and
massage.The device provides two controllable output
channels,each independent of each other,a pair of
electrodes can be connected to each output channel.The

level is adjustable according to the needs of patients.
1.2 Medical background
What is TENS?
TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) gives
good results in acute and chronic pain conditions of many
kinds. It is clinically proven and used daily by
physiotherapists, other caregivers and top athletes around
the world.
High-frequency TENS activates the pain-inhibiting
mechanisms of the nervous system. Electrical impulses
from electrodes, placed on the skin over or near the painful
area, stimulate the nerves to block the pain signals to the
brain, and the pain is not perceived. Low-frequency TENS
stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural
painkillers. TENS is a safe treatment method and has, in
contrast to drugs and other pain relief methods, no side
effects. It may be sufficient as the only treatment form, but it
is also a valuable complement to other pharmacological
