The Electrical Stimulation Machine LGT-2320ME is one of the most efficient and versatile physical therapy devices for treating chronic pain, soft-tissue injuries, muscular dysfunctions, and much more.
As many as 12 channels for electrode pads allow the treatment of multiple body parts or patients simultaneously. It is also uniquely designed with a channel for pen electrode treatment, which not only allows the therapists to locate muscle groups for more targeted treatment precisely but also helps pinpoint the affected area for more effective treatment.
The 31 preset protocols allow users to select the appropriate preset protocol for their needs without the need to manually adjust all parameters. Each preset protocol comes with pad placement guidance and treatment guidance, making it more friendly to use and learn by beginners.
The device also allows the custom setting of parameters including pulse width, duration, frequency, surge modulation, and much more. This flexibility allows therapists to tailor treatments to individual patients.
Benefits of Pen Electrodes
- Locate Motor Points. Motor points are a group of points over the skin that can lead to muscle contractions with minimum electrical current. Under the same current, stimulating the motor points can induce stronger muscle contractions to achieve better therapeutic effects and provide a better patient experience.
- Locate Small Muscle Groups. There are some small muscle groups such as forearm and tibialis anterior that might be hard to stimulate by electrode pads, such as the forearm and tibialis anterior, especially for those having a slim body or muscle atrophy. In this case, using the pen electrode can help.
- Function Evaluation: Pen electrodes can be applied to assess muscle function, diagnose neuromuscular disorders, and monitor the progress of muscle rehabilitation therapies.
Types of Pen Electrodes
- Spherical Electrode: It is applied to body parts of uneven surfaces, such as the throat.
- Plate Electrode: It is applied to flat areas such as arms and legs.
- Ball Point Electrode: It is for intracavity simulation such as tongue
- Y-shaped Electrode: It is for bilateral electrical stimulation such as muscle on both sides of the pharynx and supine.
- Dual-point Ball Electrode: It is for bilateral treatment of intracavity such as tongue and palate.
- Cotton Swab Electrode: It is for intracavity stimulation. The cotton swab is disposable for improved hygiene and safety.
- Electric Glove: It can be in combination with manipulation or stainless steel fascia knife therapy for improved efficacy and patient experience.
