Pierenkemper Operating Manual - PierenStim Parese
Please refer to the relevant specialist literature for the
generation and evaluation of the I/t curve.
The accompanying l/t curve forms can be used for the
documentation of the ascertained measurement values.
Because pulse widths of less than 10 ms cannot be
measured with the PierenStim Parese, there is here a
modified I/t curve which does not necessarily correspond
with parameters ascertained on large scale devices.
Electrode placement
Moisten the sponge electrodes with water. Place the
electrodes on the required body locations with the belt
strap. Connect the device and the electrodes with the
electrode cable.
Starting the stimulation
The stimulation can now be started with the left-hand
key. The device now changes to the therapy mode.

The left-hand
and
intensity to a specific value. As soon as muscular tension
occurs then the intensity is adequate. The current level
is shown in the lower left-hand display. This level can be
varied in the range between 0 and 60 mA in steps of 1
mA. If the
and
keys remain permanently depressed,
the intensity is automatically adjusted upwards or
downwards. In the interests of safety the automatic
intensity adjustment is interrupted every 10 mA.
