Siemens Designed Electrotherapy

Electrotherapy Introduction - 9th Generation Technology

The previous generation’s electrotherapy devices have set the standards for patient safety and comfort worldwide. Once again, the ninth and newest generation of devices has improved this standard.

Ergonomics

The ergonomics begin with the housing: the outer housing is made of powder-coated metal which is dust-proof and splash-proof, and makes the unit very sturdy. The keyboard makes operation simple, and the unit can be operated easily either while standing or while seated.

Integrated Vacuum Unit

The units can be equipped with an optional integrated vacuum unit for vacuum therapy. Vibration-free and extremely quiet, the device makes use of the Venturi, or injection, principle. As it cannot aspirate any water or dirt, the device is maintenance-free, and hygienic treatment can be provided to patients using disposable paper discs which cost only pennies for each application.

Accessories

Our devices have always been fitted with an extensive selection of high-quality accessories. Accessories from previous models can still be used with the new generation of devices. Devices with an ultrasonic therapy unit have been fitted with an additional port, allowing the transducer to remain in the medical device during electrotherapy.

Easy to Service

The newest units are easy to use and have a modular and sturdy, yet simple, mechanical construction. When the unit is turned on, it undergoes a complete self-check procedure. For maintenance purposes, each device has a service menu which allows maintenance personnel to perform a simple and quick error analysis without additional equipment. This guarantees high reliability and low failure rate.

STEREODYNATOR 928The STEREODYNATOR 928

The comfortable therapeutic medical device with three-dimensional interference current.

The STEREODYNATOR 928 holds an additional top-ranking position in the field of electrical therapy. Its range of use predestinated this medical device for use in physiotherapeutic departments of clinics as well as in modern well-equipped private practices.

A stereodynamic interference current is generated through the superposition of three middle-frequency currents flowing in different directions.

The stimulating lower frequencies are already generated through interference of two phase shifted circuits in the area being stimulated. The additional third electrical circuit generates, as opposed to classical interference methods, on one side of a slower change in intensity and on the other side a rhythmic shifting of the interference field. These dynamics of the area being stimulated and the intensity decrease the habituation effect and therefore improve the therapeutic effect.

The STEREODYNATOR 928 uses this three-dimensional interference method. The special characteristics are as follows:

 
bullet Three dimensional stimulation effect
bullet Multi-site stimulation effect
bullet Intensity dynamics
bullet Dynamic behaviour of stimulation site coupled with endogenous/exogenous stimulation shifting

Automated programs improve the handling. The STEREODYNATOR 928 is equipped with several programs which automatically adjust the treatment frequency and the treatment time. Treatment frequencies, particularly for sedation, myokinetics, and vegetative stimulation, are available.

The stimulating effect can alternatively be administered endogenously or exogenously. During endogenous application, the interference is generated through superposition of the electrical circuits in the body. This allows an intense effect. During exogenous application, the interference is created in the medical device. The stimulating effect takes place directly underneath the electrodes on the body surface.

In addition to three-circuit interference current, STEREODYNATOR 928 offers a complete selection of single circuit currents for all known therapeutic procedures.

The STEREODYNATOR 928 is particularly suitable for:

 
bullet Pain Therapy with interference
bullet Muscle toning and detoning
bullet Galvanization and iontophoresis
bullet Pelvic floor stimulation
bullet Treatment of urinary and fecal incontinence

STEREODYNATOR 928 offers the following options:

 
bullet A module for ultrasonic therapy with continuous and impulse ultrasonic waves as well as for the combination of electrical stimulus current and ultrasonic therapy.
bullet A suction application aide for the vacuum therapy.

Recommended accessories:

 
bullet Star electrode set
bullet Stereo-suction electrode set
bullet Therapy set 2
bullet "One-Touch" Philosoph
bullet Immediately after pushing the key for the desired electric current type, the theapy or diagnosis can be started.

Ergonomic Control Panel

Function keys are colored black and modification keys white. Keys for the same function are located in the same position on all devices. They are easy to recognize - which is particularly importatn for the visually handicapped - and also have a pressure point. The parameter settings can be carried out either with the keys or the adjustment knob. The intensity control automatically reverts to "0" after the expiration of the therapy time.
 


Display

All devices are equipped with a high-resolution graphic display. The selected stimulating current type is shown graphically. All important parameters are also shown. Modifications are performed using the white modification keys located around the display or the modification knob.

LED Keys

Optical user support is furnished in the form of LED lights incorporated into the keys:

blinking = key was selected and remains active
constantly lit = key is active
not lit = key is not active

Menu

In addition to "One-Touch" operation, a user-guided method for selection can also be chosen by way of the menu. By selecting the desired effect (analgesia, hyperemia, muscle toning, muscle detoning) and the site of action (head and neck, spinal column and trunk, upper extremities, lower extremities), the appropriate stimulation current is automatically selected and a recommendation for the electrode application is provided. The many also allows the use of special types of stimulation current (i.e. for the treatment of incontinence).

 

STEREODYNATOR
Electrotherapy In A Class Of It's Own

One Touch to Start

 
The new Stereodynator® by gbo Medizintechnik AG has the full spectrum of therapies. At the same time the user interface is so clear, that it offers a maximum level of usability: With one single touch the user can select a therapy from his personal list of favorites. Simply turning the intensity regulator allows a real quickstart. Additionally, the modern high-tech design with brushed aluminum surface and the 15" TFT LC D full color touchscreen monitor offers the doctor “that certain extra” to just having a technically sophisticated electrotherapy unit.

Complete range of functions

The Stereodynator® uses the unique threedimensional interferential current generated by
three superimposed middle frequency signals. This highly effective current is conveniently
applied with special easy to use applicators and the optional Venturi vacuum suction massage module. The Stereodynator® can be used as a device for electrotherapy, ultrasound
therapy and combination therapy. With its two independent channels, it allows to treat
one patient with two different therapies or even two patients at the same time.
