implanted metallic or electronic device, because this may cause electric shock, burns, electrical
interference, or death.

Warnings
Do not apply stimulation over the patient’s neck because this could cause severe muscle spasms
resulting in closure of the airway, difficulty in breathing, or adverse effects on heart rhythm or blood
pressure.
Do not apply stimulation across the patient’s chest, because the introduction of electrical current into
the chest may cause rhythm disturbances to the patient’s heart, which could be lethal.
Do not apply stimulation over, or in proximity to, cancerous lesions.
Do not apply stimulation when the patient is in the bath or shower.
If you have one of the following conditions, please consult with your physician before purchasing or
