Product Overview
Intelect NMES Unit (77715) - Complete Kit
Intelect NMES Unit (77715) - Complete Kit
The Intelect NMES Unit (77715) is a Neuromuscular Stimulator and is used for the Prevention of Disuse Atrophy as well as Muscle Re-Education, Increasing Range of Motion and Increasing Circulation.
Long known for innovative clinical electrotherapy devices, Chattanooga Group now offers a new, portable, battery-operated Intelect® NMES device that offers fully adjustable parameters including frequency, pulse duration and three stimulation modes.
- Knob Cover: An acrylic knob cover protects Amplitude Controls from accidental user touch when the unit is being used.
- Lid Cover: A panel covers the controls for Frequency, Ramp, Contraction Time and Relaxation Time.
- Amplitude Controls: It controls the "INTENSITY" level of stimulating pulses. These controls located at the top of the unit regulate the amplitude, or intensity, of the stimulation and are the ON/OFF CONTROL. The power indicator will light up with green color when the unit is working.
- Contraction Time Control: Adjust Contraction Time from 1s to 30s by turning the control knob.
- Relaxation Time Control: Adjust Relaxation Time from 1s to 45s by turning the control knob.
- Frequency Control: Select Frequency 5 Hz, 30 Hz, 100Hz by shifting the switch
- Ramp Control Switch: Select Ramp Time 1s, 3s, 5s by shifting the switch
- Battery: 9 Volt DC Battery.
- Channel: Dual channels, isolated between channels
- Pulse Amplitude: 0 ~ 80 mA = 0 ~ 40 volts, adjustable (at 500 ohm load)
- Pulse Frequency (Hz): 5, 30, 100
- Pulse Width (μs): 250, Fixed
- Contraction (On) Time (sec): 1 ~ 30, adjustable
- Relaxation (Off) Time (sec): 1 ~ 45, adjustable
- Waveform: Asymmetric biphasic square pulse.
- Timer Control (mins): No
- Stimulation Mode: One
- Power Supply: 9V DC square shape battery
- Size: (D x W x H) 1.0" x 2.5" x 3.6" (26 mm x 62 mm x 91 mm)
- Weight (including battery): 4.4 oz (126 g)
- Safety standard: EN 60601-1, EN 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-10
- Operation Ambient Temperature Range: 50 ~ 95ºF (10 ~ 35ºC)
- Operation Ambient Humidity Range: 20 ~ 90% RH
- Storage & Transportation Temperature Range: 32 ~ 158º F (0 ~ 70ºC)
- Storage & Transportation Humidity Range: 20 ~ 90% RH
- Unit: 1 year from date of original consumer purchase.
- Accessories (consisting of lead wire, electrodes, carrying case, and belt clip): 90 Days from the date of original consumer purchase.
What is a Neuromuscular Stimulator?
- Neuromuscular Stimulation is achieved by sending small electrical impulses through the skin to the underlying motor units (nerves and muscles) to create an involuntary muscle contraction.
Neuromuscular stimulation has many uses beyond its traditional application to prevent disuse atrophy, including:- An increased range of motion: As a substitute for passive stretching exercise performed by the patient or therapist.
- Muscle re-education: for example, teaching patients how to set their quads.
- Because the transdermal stimulation of nerves and muscles may be accomplished by electrical pulses, this modality can help prevent disuse atrophy. Accordingly, incapacitated patients can receive therapeutic treatment to create involuntary muscle contractions thereby improving and maintaining muscle tone without actual physical activity.
- The Neuromuscular Stimulator is an easy to use system. A marvel of miniaturized electronics, the lightweight power unit transmits electrical pulses through the skin surface and stimulates motor units (nerve and muscles). The electrical impulses are "ramped" so they closely emulate natural muscle contractions.
- Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of practitioners licensed by the State in which they practice to use or order the use of the device.
- The long-term effects of chronic electrical stimulation are unknown.
- Stimulation should not be applied over the carotid sinus nerves, particularly in patients with a known sensitivity to the carotid sinus reflex.
- Stimulation should not be applied over the neck or mouth. Severe spasm of the laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles may occur and the contractions may be strong enough to close the airway or cause difficulty in breathing.
- Stimulation should not be applied transthoracically in that the introduction of electrical current into the heart may cause cardiac arrhythmias.
- Stimulation should not be applied over swollen, infected, or inflamed areas or skin eruptions, e.g., phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, varicose veins, etc.
- Stimulation should not be applied over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions.
- For external use only.
- Do not use NMES on the eye area.
- This device should be used only under the continued supervision of a licensed medical practitioner.
- Safety of NMES devices for use during pregnancy or delivery has not been established.
- Electronic equipment such as ECG monitors and ECG alarms may not operate properly when NMES is in use.
- Apply the electrodes to clean, dry, and unbroken skin only.
- This device should not be used while driving, operating machinery, or during any activity in which involuntary muscle contractions may put the user at undue risk of injury.
- This device should be kept out of the reach of children.
- Keep electrodes separate during treatment. Electrodes in contact with each other could result in improper stimulation or skin burns.
- Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed heart problems.
- Caution should be used for patients with suspected or diagnosed epilepsy.
- Caution should be used in the presence of the following:
- (a)When there is a tendency to hemorrhage following acute trauma or fracture
- (b)Following recent surgical procedures when muscle contraction may disrupt the healing process.
- (c)Over the menstruating or pregnant uterus
- (d)Over areas of the skin which lack normal sensation.
- Some patients may experience skin irritation or hypersensitivity due to the electrical stimulation or electrical conductive medium. The irritation can usually be reduced by using an alternate conductive medium, or alternate electrode placement.
- Electrode placement and stimulation settings should be based on the guidance of the prescribing practitioner.
- This device should be used only with the leads and electrodes recommended for use by the manufacturer.
- Isolated cases of skin irritation may occur at the site of the electrode placement following long-term application.
- Effectiveness is highly dependent upon patient selection by a person qualified in the management of pain afflicted patients.
- If the stimulation levels are uncomfortable or become uncomfortable, reduce the stimulation amplitude to a comfortable level and contact your physician if problems persist.
- Possible skin irritation or electrode burn under the electrodes may occur.
- Possible allergic skin reaction to tape or gel may occur.
- If the stimulation levels are uncomfortable or become uncomfortable, reduce the stimulation amplitude to a comfortable level and contact your physician if problems persist.

using the product post surgery to relieve muscle tension / spasm . i like that unit is compact, lightweight and easy to use. however i do wish that leads (wires) that come with the product were a little longer (6 inches minimum) otherwise i am very happy with unit

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Good product at a reasonable price
Pros:
Easy Storage.

Best Uses:
Following Surgery.
Describe Yourself:
Average Health.
I'm recovering from 3 surgeries to repair my left index flexor tendons which I severed in an accident. Since I have no insurance, it's assisted me greatly in maintaining muscle tone and passive ROM without formal OT. The surgeries left me with some major adhesions and I elected not to have any more surgery, so I'm hoping this unit will be the device to break the adhesions as my hand heals.
