CareTec II TENS & EMS Combo Electrical Stimulator

CareTec II TENS & EMS Combo Electrical Stimulator The CareTec II TENS and EMS Combo Electrical Stimulator is a compact, portable electrotherapy unit that combines Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) in a single digital device. Designed for prescribed professional and home-use electrotherapy programs, the CareTec II features two isolated stimulation channels, multiple TENS and EMS modes, adjustable stimulation settings, and both battery and AC-adapter power options. With four TENS modes and three EMS modes, the CareTec II offers multiple stimulation patterns for use with different prescribed treatment protocols. Its dual-channel configuration provides flexibility for treating multiple areas, while dedicated channel controls allow stimulation intensity to be adjusted independently. Measuring only 4.5 x 2.55 x 0.9 inches and weighing 0.28 lb with the battery, the CareTec II is designed for convenient transportation and storage. Key Features TENS and EMS combination unit integrates two electrical stimulation modalities into one portable electrotherapy device. Dual isolated channels provide two electrically isolated stimulation channels. Four TENS modes include Burst, Normal, Pulse Width Modulation, and Pulse Rate Modulation. Three EMS modes include Synchronous, Asynchronous, and Delay. Independent channel intensity controls allow stimulation levels to be adjusted for each channel according to the prescribed treatment parameters. 105 mA maximum output capability is identified by the manufacturer as an industry-leading specification. Monophasic square pulse waveform is used for both TENS and EMS operation. 50–300 microsecond adjustable pulse width provides a range of stimulation settings. 1–150 Hz adjustable pulse rate is available for both TENS and EMS. EMS contraction time adjustable from 1–30 seconds allows the stimulation cycle to be configured. EMS relaxation time adjustable from 0–60 seconds provides control over the rest period. EMS ramp time adjustable from 1–6 seconds allows the stimulation ramp to be configured. 1–60 minute treatment timer or continuous operation accommodates different prescribed treatment durations. 9-volt battery and AC-adapter operation allows the device to be used either portably or with an external power source. Compact handheld format makes the unit convenient to carry and store. Carrying case included provides organized storage and transportation. Two sets of lead wires included support the device's dual-channel configuration. Four self-adhesive reusable electrodes included provide electrodes for initial treatment setup. One-year manufacturer warranty is included. HCPCS code E0730 is listed for the TENS unit. HCPCS code A4595 is listed for electrotherapy supplies. Dual-Channel TENS and EMS Electrotherapy The CareTec II combines TENS and EMS stimulation in a single digital electrotherapy unit. The two channels are isolated from one another, providing flexibility when the prescribed treatment requires stimulation at multiple treatment sites. Each channel has its own controls, allowing stimulation intensity to be adjusted independently. This makes it possible to configure the two channels according to the requirements of the prescribed treatment program. Four TENS Treatment Modes The CareTec II provides four selectable TENS modes: Burst Normal Pulse Width Modulation Pulse Rate Modulation These modes provide different stimulation patterns and allow the TENS function to be configured according to the prescribed treatment parameters. TENS Specifications The TENS function uses a monophasic square pulse waveform and provides the following adjustable parameters: TENS Parameter Specification Waveform Monophasic square Pulse Amplitude 0–100 mA peak at 1,000 ohm load per channel Pulse Width 50–300 microseconds Pulse Width Adjustment 10 microsecond increments Pulse Rate 1–150 Hz Pulse Rate Adjustment 1 Hz increments Treatment Modes Burst, Normal, Pulse Width Modulation, Pulse Rate Modulation The manufacturer identifies the CareTec II as having a 105 mA maximum output capability, while the detailed technical specifications identify an adjustable pulse amplitude range of 0–100 mA peak at a 1,000 ohm load per channel. Three EMS Treatment Modes For electrical muscle stimulation, the CareTec II offers three operating modes: Synchronous Asynchronous Delay The EMS function allows users to configure stimulation parameters including pulse rate, pulse width, contraction time, relaxation time, and ramp time within the device's documented ranges. EMS Specifications EMS Parameter Specification Waveform Monophasic square Pulse Amplitude 0–100 mA peak at 1,000 ohm load per channel Pulse Width 50–300 microseconds Pulse Width Adjustment 10 microsecond increments Pulse Rate 1–150 Hz Pulse Rate Adjustment 1 Hz increments Contraction Time 1–30 seconds Relaxation Time 0–60 seconds Ramp Time 1–6 seconds Treatment Modes Synchronous, Asynchronous, Delay These adjustable parameters allow EMS stimulation timing and cycling to be configured to the requirements of the prescribed treatment protocol. Adjustable Treatment Timer The CareTec II features a programmable treatment timer that can be set from 1 to 60 minutes or configured for continuous operation. Treatment duration can be adjusted in one-minute increments, with an automatic countdown during timed treatments. This built-in timer allows treatment duration to be set directly on the device rather than requiring a separate external timer. Compact Portable Electrotherapy Design Measuring 4.5 x 2.55 x 0.9 inches and weighing only 0.28 lb with the battery installed, the CareTec II is designed for portable electrotherapy use and convenient storage. The unit can be powered by a standard 9-volt battery or the included AC adapter. This provides flexibility for portable use as well as operation from an available AC power source. Complete TENS and EMS Accessory Package The CareTec II comes supplied with the primary accessories needed for its intended TENS and EMS applications. The standard package includes: CareTec II electrical stimulator Two sets of lead wires Four self-adhesive reusable electrodes 9-volt battery AC adapter Instruction manual Carrying case
