Self-Adhesive Pre-Gelled Butterfly TENS Unit Electrode - Home Health Care

The Self-Adhesive Pre-Gelled Butterfly TENS Unit Electrode are replacement electrode pads for use with most TENS Units and Electronic Muscle Stimulators (at least all the ones we carry).

Directions for Use:

Application:

• Clean skin thoroughly prior to each application of the electrode. Electrode does not stick well if any lotion, oil, make-up, dirt, etc. is left on skin.
• Insert the pins of the lead wire from the device into the electrode wire connectors.
• Remove the electrodes from the protective liner and aspplyu firmly to the skin. Adhesion improves when electrodes reach skin temperature.
• Helpful hint: Always moisten skin with a damp cloth with water prior to applying electrodes. This will improve the electrode adhesion and life.

Removal:

• Lift at the edge of electrode and peel. Do no pull on the lead wires when removing electrodes from the release liner or skin. You may damage the electrodes if you do so.
• Place the electrodes on the liner and remove the lead wire by twisting and pulling at the same time.

Care and storage:

• Between uses, store the electrodes in the resealable bag in a cool, dry place.
• The life of the electrodes varies depending on skin condition, sotrage, amount of use, type of stimulation, and stimulation site. Electrode life may be extended by carefully following the application instruction above.

Important:

• The electrode is intended for single patient use only.
• Do not apply to broken skin. Should skin rash occur, discontinue use and contact your physician.
• Do not stimulate while driving a motorized behicle, or operating machinery.
• Do not exceed 0.1 Watts/CM

The Self-Adhesive Pre-Gelled Butterfly TENS Unit Electrode can be used approximately 3-5 times before they begin losing its adhesiveness. To provide better adhesive support we recommend our It Stays Roll-on Body Adhesive (a19050).

About TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) therapy:

It is a set of electrodes which are placed on the skin on your back and it emits an electrical signal which stimulate your neurons through the skin. (Thus the name.) The sensation is more like the tingling and numbness of your jaw after dental work than like pain.
