REHA 17-18-19-20-21-22 • Denervated muscle triangular wave (medical
program)
These programs are ideal for rehabilitation of denervated muscles, for
peripheral neuropathy. Triangular waveform to be used as an alternative to
programs REHA 11-16.
The duration of the pulses is greater than that of the regular rehabilitation
programs (in terms of milliseconds and not microseconds as in case of the
normally inverted muscle) and the frequency is much lower. The stimulation
frequency can be set between 0.2/0.5/1 Hz for all programs, while the pulse
width varies from 50ms (REHA 17 program) to 300ms (REHA 22 program).
Set the frequency parameter as indicated in the previous paragraph.
Session duration: 15 minutes in single phase (but you can perform several
shorter phases multiple times a day).
Electrodes' positioning: use 2 large self-adhesive electrodes (you can use
suitably dampened electrodes with sponge inserts), placed across the muscle
to be stimulated.
ATTENTION: program active on channels 1 and 2.
REHA 23 • Interferential (medical program)
Stimulation that ensures deep tissue penetration. This pulse has a good
analgesic effect, producing at the same time a good trophic action on the
surrounding muscles. Well tolerated by the patient, indicated for the
treatment of periarthritis, knee arthritis, meniscopathy
and for recovery after cross ligament surgery.
ATTENTION: program active on channels 1 and 2.
Session duration: 30 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: as shown in the diagram.
Intensity: enough to cause a good tingle, not painful.
The intensity should be increased gradually each day.
From the moment when the contractions begin to
appear, the program should be continued keeping the
limb locked, avoiding joint extension.
REHA 24 • TENS amplitude modulation (medical program)
The pulse's amplitude varies continuously, creating a more pleasant sensation
than the programs with constant pulses. Suitable for pain relief; it produces a
massaging effect on the surrounding muscles.
Session duration: 30 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning form a square over the painful area as shown in
Figure1.
