  • Page 3 2. Do not apply stimulation across the patient’s chest, because the introduction of electrical current into the chest may cause rhythm disturbances to the patient’s heart, which could be lethal; 3. Do not apply stimulation over open wounds or rashes, or over swollen, red, infected, or inflamed areas or skin eruptions (e.g., phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins);...

  • Page 8: Operating Instruction For Physician

    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR PHYSICIAN INTENDED USE TENS/EMS/MIC/IF Model Ultima NEO combines the systems of a TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator) device, an EMS or NMES (Neuro-Muscular Stimulator), a MIC (Micro current) stimulator and an IF (Interferential) stimulator. How does TENS/EMS/MIC/IF work?
  • Page 9 The goal of electrical muscle stimulation is to achieve contractions or vibrations in the muscles. The impulses stimulate the nerves to send signals to a specifically targeted muscle, which reacts by contracting, just as it does with normal muscular activity. For MIC system: Micro current (MIC) stimulation is a type of therapy in which very low current is sent into the cells of the body.
