Note that two independent buttons for Ch A and Ch B now appear at the right of the screen, reflecting the fact that independent channel level control is available for all stimulation modes except 4-pole interferential. Also note that the treatment time defaults to the last figure entered if two different times were set for ultrasound and stimulation – this can be altered by highlighting the clock in this page. Only treatment time and stimulation intensity can be controlled in the combination page. Apply coupling medium to the treatment site and position the ultrasound transducer on the patient so that the lesion point is between the stimulator electrode(s) and the ultrasound transducer. Press and hold the stimulator output button (one channel at a time if A and B are available), turn it on (using the control knob) and slowly increase the intensity until the patient just feels the normal 'tingling' sensation associated with the modality. Turn on the ultrasound output (press and hold the US button whilst turning the control knob clockwise). The patient may feel a slight increase in sensation. Increase the ultrasound intensity to the required level. Move the ultrasound transducer towards the lesion area making sure that there is always coupling medium between the face of the transducer and the skin. When directly over the lesion, the patient will feel increased sensation - this is the centre of the lesion. Treat with ultrasound and stimulation for the remaining time set. Combination 860 45
