The doctor states that she had a patient burned on this device. The patient felt a burning sensation - they removed the electrodes, and the skin underneath was red with a white spot in the middle that was turning into a blister. She was using rubber electrodes with a good amount of gel, however, a burn only appeared under one electrode. The patient did feel a shock during therapy, and left the doctor with a 2cm (. 787") blister. The patient is reported as having felt a little discomfort during treatment, but thought it was normal - when the electrodes were removed from her skin, the skin had turned white & was peeling off on her buttox (electrodes were 4" apart). The burns are reported as having lasted to date (upon notification of event to (b)(4)). The patient is also reported as having received medical attention for the injury.
