INDICATIONS

 
  • chronic and acute pain
  • inflammation - edema
  • synovitis
  • musculoskeletal dysfunctions
  • sports injuries - sprains, strains and contusions
  • arthritic conditions - osteoarthritis OA
  • sciatica
  • neuropathies
  • temporalmandibular joint dysfunction TMJ
  • fibromyalgia FMS
  • plantar fasciitis
  • tennis elbow
  • carpal tunnel syndrome CTS
  • fractures - bone reunion
  • wound healing - ischemic ulcers 
  • CONTRAINDICATIONS

  • on pain syndromes where the etiology has not been established
  • pregnancy
  • demand type cardiac pacemakers
  • wound infections
  • through malignant or benign tumors
  • through the eyeball
  • through carotid sinus
  • osteomyelitis
  • over laryngeal musculature
  • over the thorax intersecting the heart
  • presence of topical substances containing metal ions
  • Wounds require thorough flushing of metal ions prior to electro stimulation. 

    ACTION

    Inflamed tissue if left untreated can cause a number of painful chronic and acute conditions. Injured tissue exhibits an increase in bio-electrical impedance slowing down the healing process. Transport of nutrients to and wastes from the cells becomes compromised causing inflammation. CellStim's waveform penetrates through the impedance barrier enhancing the body's own restorative properties resulting in an acceleration of the healing process.

    Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the main energy molecule essential for cellular regeneration.
    Ngok Cheng M.D. (1982) applied electric currents in the range of 100 to 500 uA and discovered increases of ATP, glycine incorporation and aminoisobutyric acid uptake in the proteins of living tissue.

    The increased ATP levels promote protein and collagen synthesis in human fibroblasts, resulting in an increased rate of tissue regeneration of 150%-350%. 


    WARNINGS

  • Proper hydration is essential for optimal effect.
  • The CellStim includes re-useable carbon rubber electrode pads.
  • Allergic reactions are reported by less than 1% of patients. (self-adhesive electrode pads supplied if specified)
  • Due to the sensitivity of the carotid sinuses to electrical interference and the possibility of carotid sinus reflex, the patient should be warned to adhere to prescribed protocols. Incorrect polarity application of positive or negative monophasic current may result in exacerbation of symptoms of nerve root origin.
  • The CellStim may suppress the sensation of pain which otherwise serves as a protective mechanism.
  • Electronic monitoring equipment (such as ECG and ECG alarms) may not operate properly when microcurrent stimulation is in use.
  • PRECAUTIONS

    Patients should be instructed on the following:
    Carry over effect of CellStim treatments and the regenerative advantages.
    Importance of proper skin contact to electrode pads.
    Patients that are dehydrated may experience nausea, light-headedness, and headaches.

    USE IN PREGNANCY

    The safety of microcurrent use in pregnancy has not been established. The benefits of using microcurrent when pregnancy is confirmed or suspected must be weighed against possible hazards.

    USE DURING LACTATION

    No specific studies have been conducted on electro stimulation changes to breast milk and their effect on the infant.

    USE ON CHILDREN

    The efficacy and safety of microcurrent on children under the age of 5 years has not been studied.

    USE WITH OTHER DRUGS

    No adverse reactions have been recorded to date when combined with drugs. However, due to the importance of hydration with any form of electrotherapy, patients that are receiving diuretics should be carefully monitored.

    DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

    Dosages vary according to the specific protocols administered in microcurrent therapy. Typical dosage consists of .5 to 2 hour applications 1 to 4 times per day. To date there have been no reports of overdose.
