Osteosynthesis equipment

The presence of osteosynthesis

equipment (metallic equipment in

contact with the bone: pins, screws,

plates, prostheses, etc.) is not a contra-

indication for the use of Compex programs.

The electrical current of the Compex is

specially designed to have no harmful

effect with regard to osteosynthesis

equipment.

In all of the above cases, you are

advised to:

■ never use the Compex for prolonged

periods without medical advice;

■ consult your doctor if you are in

any doubt whatsoever;

■ read this manual carefully, in

particular chapter VI, which provides

information concerning the effects

and indications of each stimulation

program.

2. Safety measures

What you should not do with

the Compex

■ Do not use the Compex in water

or in a humid atmosphere (sauna,

hydrotherapy, etc.).

■ 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 having intentionally contracted

it themselves. This vagal reaction

produces a feeling of weakness with

a fainting tendency, slowing down

of the heartrate and a reduction in

arterial blood pressure. If this does

occur, all that is required is to stop

the stimulation and lie down with the

legs raised for the time it takes for

the feeling of weakness to disappear

(5 to 10 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

the movement that results from

contraction.

■ Do not use the device at less than

1.5 metres from a short-wave device,

a micro-wave device or high

frequency (H.F.) surgical equipment

to avoid the risk of causing skin

irritations or burns under the electrodes.

If you are in any doubt about using

the Compex in close proximity to any
