Chattanooga Intelect Mobile 2 Combo

Intelect® Mobile 2 Combo - The new generation Chattanooga Intelect Therapeutic Ultrasound and 2 Channel Electrotherapy Device.

The Intelect® Mobile 2 Combo is a combined ultrasound therapy system with 2 channel electrotherapy stimulation used with or without an optional Cart. The Therapy Cart has the option of installing a Vacuum Therapy module for use with the stimulation currents.

The Intelect Mobile 2 Combo offers dual frequency Ultrasound - 1 and 3 MHz, with continuous and pulsed duty cycles (10%, 20%, 50% & 100%).

For Electrotherapy treatments, 5 waveforms are included: Interferential (2 pole and 4 pole), VMS Muscle Stimulation, High Volt, Asymmetric biphasic TENS and Symmetric biphasic TENS.

Supplied with a 5cm² ultrasound applicator, with additional optional heads available.

Guidelines for treatment areas are available on the user interface.

High resolution 7” capacitive touch screen for access to intuitive user interface and extensive anatomical library. Suggestions for the placement of electrodes and areas for ultrasound applicator placement are in easy to use and find guidelines. The touch screen also gives real time information as to the progress of the individual treatment and a summary after treatment ends.

New contemporary ergonomic modern design to fit in any therapy clinic, but versatile enough with the integral option of the battery to make the device simple and convenient to use in the patients own home.

Coupling detection can be monitored either audibly (set to on as default) or visually by the LED on the back of the applicator, treatment time indicator will stop when head is uncoupled so the of amount of ultrasound treatment delivered during the time period is accurately measured and reproducible.

Lightweight device with an ergonomically designed handle and optional integral battery, eliminating the need to carry mains wires on home visits. Optional custom carry case available for transporting the device safely and securely.

Intelect® Mobile 2 was designed to be compliant with IEC 60601-1-11 and can be used for treatment in the patients own home as well as the therapist clinic, giving flexibility and versatility for both clinician and patient alike.

The Intelect Mobile 2 has built in suggested protocols based on currently available clinical evidence, the user can also write and store custom protocols which can be stored with a specific ID or treatment.

Optional cart with storage drawers ensuring all accessories are convenient and easy to reach from the device, large wheels allow the cart and device to be moved easily around the clinic. Add in the option of the vacuum unit to allow the use of vacuum in electrotherapy (optional Therapy Cart required for the optional Vacuum module).

ELECTROTHERAPY MODALITIES

• Interferential - Traditional 4 Pole - Interferential Current is a medium frequency waveform. Current is distributed through two channels (four electrodes). The currents cross each other in the body at the area requiring treatment. The two currents interfere with each other at this crossing point, resulting in a modulation of the intensity (the current intensity increases and decreases at a regular frequency).
• Interferential Premodulated - Traditional 2 Pole - Premodulated Current is a medium frequency waveform. Current comes out of one channel (two electrodes). The current intensity is modulated: it increases and decreases at a regular frequency (the Amplitude Modulation Frequency).
• VMS - VMS NMES is a symmetrical biphasic waveform with a 100 µsec interphase interval. Because the pulse is relatively short, the waveform has a low skin load, making it suitable for applications requiring high intensities, such as in muscle strengthening protocols.
• TENS Asymmetrical Biphasic - The Asymmetrical Biphasic waveform has a short pulse duration. It is capable of strong stimulation of the nerve fibers in the skin as well as of muscle tissue. This waveform is often used in TENS devices. Because of its short pulse, the patient typically tolerates the current well, even at relatively high intensities.
• TENS Symmetrical Biphasic - The Symmetrical Biphasic waveform has a short pulse duration and is capable of strong stimulation of nerve fibers in the skin and in muscle. This waveform is often used in portable muscle stimulation units, and some TENS devices.
• HVPC - The High Voltage Pulsed Current has a very brief pulse duration characterized by two distinct peaks delivered at high voltage. The waveform is monophasic (current flows in one direction only). The high voltage causes a decreased skin resistance making the current comfortable and easy to tolerate.
