4. Safety guidelines

Contraindications

Do not use if you have a pacemaker (or if you have a heart rhythm problem) or with any electronic medical devices. Using this unit with electronic medical devices may cause erroneous operation of the device. Stimulation in the direct vicinity of an implanted device may affect some models. Stimulation on the front of the neck can affect your heart rate. Very strong stimulation across the chest may cause an extra heartbeat.

Do not use if you are or may be pregnant. It is not known whether TENS may affect foetal development.

Do not use on the abdomen in the later stages of pregnancy. Stop using immediately if you experience unexpected contractions.

Warnings

Do NOT use when driving, operating machinery, or similar actions needing muscular control. Loose electrodes, or sudden changes in contact may cause brief involuntary muscle movements.

Do NOT use to mask or relieve undiagnosed pain. This may delay diagnosis of a progressive condition.

Do NOT use if you have, in the area being treated: active or suspected cancer or undiagnosed pain with a history of cancer. Stimulation directly through a confirmed or suspected malignancy should be avoided as it may stimulate growth and promote spread of cancer cells.

Do NOT use electrodes on the front of the neck. Stimulation on the front of the neck can affect your heart rate or cause contraction of the throat.

Do NOT use electrodes across the chest. Very strong stimulation across the chest may cause an extra heartbeat and/or rhythm disturbances to your heart, which could be lethal.

Do NOT use while simultaneously connected to high frequency surgical equipment as it may result in burns at the site of stimulator electrodes and possible damage to the stimulator.

Do NOT use in close proximity (e.g. 1 m) to a shortwave or microwave as this may produce instability in the stimulator output.

Do NOT use electrodes near the thorax as this may increase the risk of cardiac fibrillation.

Do not use the heat function if you cannot sense temperature.

Do not use the heat function on any muscle or joint which has swelling or oedema. Heat may worsen the pain and/or condition.

Do not use if you have poor sensation in the pelvic region. You may not be able to control the intensity of stimulation safely.

Do not use if you experience any adverse reactions from the device and consult a healthcare professional immediately.

! Cautions

Caution should be used if you have a bleeding disorder as stimulation may increase blood flow to the stimulated region.

Caution should be used if you have suspected or diagnosed epilepsy as electrical stimulation may affect seizure threshold.

Caution should be observed when using the device at the same time as being connected to monitoring equipment with body worn electrodes. It may interfere with the signals being monitored.

Caution should be used following recent surgical procedures. Stimulation may disrupt the healing process.

Not intended for use in an oxygen rich environment.

Not intended for use in conjunction with flammable anaesthetics or flammable agents.

The patient is an intended operator.

Do not service and maintain the device while in use.

Note: The Ova 3 has no essential performance characteristics. Device failure will not cause acceptable clinical risk for the user.

5. Using Ova 3

Preparing for a session

Applying the hydrogels

For best results, wipe clean and dry the targeted area of the body.

Remove the hydrogels from their plastic bag.

Remove the coloured plastic liners first and apply to the bottom face of the electrodes.

Note: Ensure to align the Hydrogel correctly before applying to the bottom face of the electrodes.

Leave the transparent plastic liners on the gels until you are ready to place the pads on the body.

Note: It is important the liners are removed in this order. Ensure to keep one of the liners to re-apply onto the gel your session is complete.

Two identical medical or anatomical diagrams showing a cross-section with green checkmark and red X mark, no text or symbols present.

Applying the electrodes

Remove the transparent plastic liners labelled 2 and apply the electrodes to the body.

We recommend placing the electrodes in one of three positions.

TENS stimulation will work differently depending on the location of your nerves therefore it is important to try all these positions to find what provides you with the most pain relief.

On the front, in a vertical format

Diagram of a medical device with two identical devices and a connecting rod, placed on a human pelvis (no text or labels)

In the vicinity of your groin, place the pads vertically, about 10cm (4 inches) apart.

On the front, in a diagonal format

Diagram of a medical device with two blue devices and a connector, enclosed in a white anatomical outline (no text or labels)

In the vicinity of your groin, place the pads in a V-shape, narrowing to about 10cms (4 inches) apart at the lower end of the pads.

On the lower back

Diagram of a human torso with two medical electrodes and a connecting rod, no text or symbols present

Place the pads vertically either side of the spine, approximately 10cms (4 inches) apart, with the bottom of the electrodes no higher than the top of your buttocks.

As each person's body is different, the Ova 3 is supplied with electrodes which are large enough to be effective even if not located exactly over all three dermatomes. When the pads are placed correctly the Ova 3 will work well.

Therefore, if after thirty minutes considerable relief has not been achieved, either move the electrodes slightly or try an alternative position.

Connecting the stimulators

Once the electrodes have been attached to the body, connect both stimulators via the magnetic fixing point.

Note: The stimulator must be connected to the electrode in the correct orientation. If you feel magnetic resistance, rotate the stimulator 180^ and try connecting again.

To adjust the treatment time of the session, press the treatment time button once to enter treatment time selection mode.

Once in treatment time selection mode, repeatedly press the treatment time button to cycle between available treatment times.

Note: Ova 3 is set to a continuous treatment time by default.

4) Setting the intensity

9 mA 27 mA 54 mA

When adjusting intensity, ensure to reach a sensation that feels strong but comfortable.

Adjust intensity by repeatedly pressing the + or - buttons. To increase the intensity quickly, hold the + or - buttons.

Once you have increased the intensity, the session will begin. The 4 white LEDs on the left stimulator will flash once and then display treatment time remaining.

LED's will turn off at 15-minute intervals in descending order.

If continuous treatment time is selected, the upper most LED will flash for the duration of the session.

Continuous 45-30 min left 30-15 min left 15-0 min left OVA OVA OVA OVA

Note: At low intensity levels, it is common for no sensation to be felt. Your body can also become used to the sensation. Continue to increase the intensity until the sensation is strong but comfortable.

Note: You may feel more sensation in one pad than the other. This is normal – it depends on where the electrodes are in relation to your nerves.

Connection error display

When attaching the stimulators to the electrode, intensity is always reverted to 0.

If a stimulator is removed from an electrode whilst it is active or if there is poor contact with the skin, a connection error will occur, and intensity will be reverted to 0.

A connection error is indicated by 3 beeps and the LED display; all white LED's will flash quickly.

To restart the session, ensure the stimulators and electrodes are attached correctly and increase the intensity within 10 seconds to resume the session.

Note: During a connection error, all controls will not operate unless the Ova 3 electrodes and stimulators have been properly re-connected.
Note: If a connection error occurs and no action has been taken after 1 minute, the device will automatically turn off.

5) Activating heat therapy

Off / No heat active Heat mode 1 38°C Heat mode 2 41°C OVA OVA OVA

Heat therapy can be used in parallel with TENS pain relief programmes.

To activate heat therapy, press the heat button once to enter heat therapy mode.

Once in heat therapy mode, repeatedly press the heat button to cycle between the available heat modes.

This is indicated by a short beep as well as shown on the LED display.

Ova 3 has two heat modes, low and high.

Note: Ensure to allow sufficient time for the device to heat up before increasing temperature further.

Heat therapy will run for 10 minutes before automatically deactivating. If the TENS programme being used has a

remaining treatment time of less than 10 minutes, the heat therapy will deactivate when the TENS session ends.

It is recommended to use heat therapy once at the beginning of your session for soothing relief.

Caution: If at any time during use the heat therapy feels painful or uncomfortable, deactivate the heat.
Note: Heat mode may not be able to be turned on due to overheating or not enough battery life. If heat mode cannot be turned on, the orange LEDs on each stimulator will quickly flash 3 times. This will occur repeatedly until the device has reached a suitable temperature or the device has been recharged.

After your session

Upon completion of the session Ova 3 will automatically switch off.

To turn the device off manually hold the power button for 3 seconds.

Remove the stimulators from the electrodes by carefully lifting the stimulator from its magnetic port.

Remove the electrodes from your skin by peeling from the corner of the electrode. Make sure the hydrogel is removed from the body and remains attached to the electrodes.

Re-apply the liners onto the hydrogels on the rear of the electrodes. Return the electrodes and stimulators to the storage case. Good storage will help maximise the life of the gel.

Ensure to replace the Hydrogel pads when they lose their stickiness.

Remove the Hydrogels from the electrodes by peeling them away carefully. Poor connection to the body may cause ineffective treatment, discomfort, and skin irritation.

6. Pain relief programmes

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) provides a natural solution to pain relief in one of two ways:

Pain Gate

Stimulates sensory nerves to block pain signals from being received from the brain. Pain Gate stimulation provides pain relief whilst being used.

Endorphin Release

Low frequency TENS promotes the release of endorphins, the body's natural pain killer. Endorphin Release builds up over 40 minutes and will last several hours after stimulation is ended.

The Ova 3 offers four pre-set clinically tested programmes. It is important to try all four programmes to find which suits you the best.

Note: It is sensible to change from one programme to another regularly to prevent your body

accommodating to one programme.

Programme Type of Relief Sensation
1 Pain Gate Smooth, constant	sensation
2 Pain Gate Smooth, constant	sensation
3 Pain Gate + Endorphin Pulsing
4 Endorphin Tapping

Frequency of use

TENS can be used for as long as it is necessary. Continuous treatment is safe, but electrodes should be repositioned regularly (at least every 12 hours) to allow the skin to breathe.

7. Hydrogels advice

The electrodes and hydrogels supplied are reusable but for single patient use. The hydrogels should provide 10-20 applications per gel. However, this will vary depending on the user's skin condition and how the hydrogels are stored between use. Try to limit the amount of time the gels are exposed to the air.

The adhesive is a peelable hydrogel (water based).

It is possible to restore some of the adhesion of the hydrogel by adding a tiny drop of water on each gel and spreading it around with your finger. If too much water is added, the hydrogel will become too soft. If that happens, place the electrodes and hydrogels sticky side up in a refrigerator for a few hours. This should help restore some adhesion.

The hydrogels provided are latex-free.

The shelf life of an unopened pack of hydrogel pads is 3 years. This can be affected by very high temperatures or very low humidity.

Hydrogels Cautions:

Do not ignore any allergic reaction to the hydrogel pads: If a skin irritation develops, stop using TENS, as this type of electrode may not be suitable for you.

Do not use this device with gels or electrodes other than those recommended by the manufacturer. Performance may vary from specification. Electrodes with smaller surface area may cause tissue irritation.

Do not use hydrogels if they have lost their adhesion. Treatment effectiveness may be reduced.

DO NOT PLACE ELECTRODES:

In any position other than those recommended in this manual.

20 21

On skin, which does not have normal sensation. If the skin is numb too great a strength may be used, which could result in skin inflammation.

On broken skin. The electrodes could encourage infection.

8. Charging Ova 3
