OSTEOSYNTHESIS EQUIPMENT

The presence of osteosynthesis equipment (metallic equipment in contact with the bone: pins, screws, plates, prostheses, etc.) is not a

contraindication for use. The electrical current of the Compex Wireless is specially designed not to cause damage to osteosynthesis equipment.

Important!

• Do not use Compex Wireless if you have sensitivity problems.

• Never use the Compex for prolonged periods without medical advice.

• Consult your doctor if you want to use the device for rehabilitation purposes.

• Persons unable to express themselves should not use the device.

• Consult your doctor if you are in any doubt whatsoever.

• Read this manual carefully, in particular chapter , which provides information concerning the eects and indications of each

stimulation programme.

SAFETY MEASURES

• Do not apply stimulation near the area of an implant, such as cochlear implants, pacemakers, electrical or skeletal anchorage implants.

• Do not apply stimulation near metal. Remove jewellery, body piercings, belt buckles or any other removable metallic product or device in the

area of stimulation.

• If pregnant or menstruating, do not place electrodes directly over the uterus or connect pairs of electrodes across the abdomen.

• Do not use the Compex Wireless in water or in a humid atmosphere (sauna, hydrotherapy, etc.).

• Do not use the Compex Wireless in an oxygen-rich atmosphere.

• Never carry out an initial stimulation session on a person who is standing. The ﬁrst ﬁve minutes of stimulation must always be performed

on a person who is sitting or lying down. In rare instances, very highly strung people may have a vagal reaction. This is of psychological

origin and is connected with a fear of the muscle stimulation as well as surprise at seeing one of their muscles contract without their having

intentionally contracted it themselves. This vagal reaction produces a feeling of weakness with a tendency towards fainting which slows

down the heartrate and decreases blood pressure. If this does occur, all you need to do is stop the stimulation and lie down with your legs

raised for the time it takes for the feeling of weakness to disappear ( to  minutes).

• Never allow movement resulting from muscular contraction during a stimulation session. You should always stimulate isometrically; this

means that the extremities of the limb in which a muscle is being stimulated must be ﬁrmly ﬁxed, so as to prevent any movement resulting

from contraction.

• Do not use the Compex Wireless if you are connected to a high-frequency surgical instrument as this could cause skin irritations or burns

under the electrodes.

• Do not use the Compex Wireless unit within one metre of short wave or microwave devices as this could alter the current generated by

the stimulator. If you have any doubts when using the stimulator in close proximity to another medical device, please contact the device

manufacturer or your doctor.

• Do not use the Compex Wireless in areas where unprotected devices are used to emit electromagnetic radiation. Portable communications

equipment can interfere with electrical medical equipment.

• During a stimulation session, do not disconnect any modules which are on. Switch them o ﬁrst.

• Always use the AC adaptor provided by Compex to recharge the device.

• To prevent the risk of electric shock, never use the Compex Wireless unit or the AC adaptor if damaged or open

• Disconnect the AC adaptor immediately if there is an abnormal smell or rise in temperature, or if there is smoke coming from the AC adaptor

or the device.

• To eliminate the risk of electrocution, never place the charging station in a conﬁned space (carrying case, drawer, etc.) during charging.

• Keep the Compex Wireless unit and its accessories out of reach of children. Do not allow any foreign objects (soil, water, metal, etc.) to get

into the device or the AC adaptor.

• Sudden temperature changes can cause condensation to build up inside the stimulator. Only use the device once it has reached

ambient temperature.

• Do not use the Compex while driving or operating machinery.

• Do not apply stimulation while sleeping.

• Do not use the stimulator at altitudes of over , metres.

• When the Remote Control is not connected to docking station, the USB connector can only be used for connection to a computer.
