The Hi-TENS device generates a high frequency sinusoidal current with a monopolar mode of application using two electrodes. A neutral electrode is placed in contact with the patient and a handheld and active electrode is manipulated by a therapist. When both electrodes are in contact with a patient the electrical circuit is closed and RF therapy can be provided. The device can be operated in a resistive monopolar mode. The product consists of a power console, LCD monitor, and accessories including resistive electrodes. The unit can provide one level of treatment frequency at 300kHz. Electrodes are attached with an active cable that plugs in on the lateral side of the unit. A safety switch feature allows the patient to shut down the unit in the event of any discomfort.
An assembly of electrically-powered devices designed for professional use to apply multiple different energies (e.g., light-energy, ultrasound, radio-frequency electrical stimulation, electrotherapy) either alone or in sequence, but not simultaneously, to noninvasively treat/prevent a variety of soft-tissue, neuromuscular, and musculoskeletal injuries/disorders (e.g., joint pain/inflammation, stiffness, soft tissue injuries, muscle atrophy); it may in addition be used for aesthetic skin/body contouring (e.g., minimize cellulite, loose or wrinkled skin). It consists of a multi-modality control unit/generator, and dedicated applicators for the transcutaneous delivery of energy.
