`
`Introduction
`
`ARP is a new solution to old problems associated with
`traditional electrical
`therapeutic stimulation.
`ARP also
`presents new applications not previously addressed by
`traditional methods. ARP is a neuromuscular stimulator which
`introduces electrical signals to the body through conductive
`electrode pads to provide therapeutic treatment for a variety of
`conditions.
`
`WHAT MAKES ARP DIFFERENT?
`
`Traditionally. there have been two major methods in use for
`applying non-invasive electrical stimulation to the human body.
`The first method is to apply a single polarity, low frequency,
`alternating signal. The concept appears sound but runs into
`difficulty because the electrical resistance in the area of
`treatment may be relatively high at low frequencies. Oue to
`this high electrical resistance, the treatment can be quite
`uncomfortable for the patient. Using low frequency signals at
`the necessary high voltages, there is a loss in the intensity of
`the stimulation within the treatment area, limiting the value of
`the treatment The second method involves the interferential
`process. Interference current therapy consists of two (or more)
`medium frequency currents that are independent of each
`other. These medium frequency currents penetrate into the
`treatment area in order to interfere with each other and
`produce a low frequency. This low frequency produces a
`physiological response in tissue; however, with the production
`of this lower frequency also comes a loss of power. It has
`
`been expressed within the industry that power and frequency
`are the keys to effective electrical stimulation and therapy.
`
`ARP does not use either of the above techniques as its basis
`for action but has introduced a signal with simultaneous high
`and low freque ncies as a multi-phase signal with polarity. This
`produces a high power factor rather than just high voltages
`without producing discomfort to the patient. On the contrary. an
`almost immediate numbing occurs around the treatment area
`immediate,
`long
`lasting
`therapeutic response
`is
`and an
`obtained, often with as little as one treatment.
`
`DO YOU USE THE ARP TRAINER THE SAME WAY AS
`OTHER MACHINES?
`
`Basically no, while the operation and application through
`diagnostic placement of electrode pads is quite similar to other
`to the additional
`machines, ARP's differences are linked
`features of the machine. For example, there is a ~traveling"
`sensation of the stimulation that offers benefit to areas not
`being treated directly. This sensation is extremely useful in the
`treatment of migraine headaches. Also it is important for the
`therapist to understand the advanced penetration effects. The
`therapist must think on a multi-dimensional or, M3_0" level.
`Treatment extends beyond the surface area. Techniques for
`specific regions are discussed
`later in
`this manual with
`applications for specific conditions. Lastly, ARP is applied while
`the subject is put in motion. This is unique only to the ARP.

`
`TERMINOLOGY
`
`All special terms or terms with more than one common usage
`used in this manual are defined below. This definition as
`stated in this section represents the intended meaning of the
`term throughout this manual.
`
`• Continuous mode-Main Pulse stimulation is present at
`all times, DUTY CYCLE dial is at 20120.
`
`• Duty cycle -Variable amount of the time the main pulse
`is generated during a 20 second interval
`
`•
`
`•
`
`•
`
`Electrode pads -Pliable, conducting pads used to deliver
`electrical energy to the body areas being treated.
`
`Frequency -Number of main pulses per second.
`
`Intermittent mode - Method of operation when DUTY
`CYCLE dial is less than 20120.
`
`• Polarity -
`
`Indicates direction of electron flow.
`
`• Power - Effective stimulation intensity, which is
`determined by amplitude and frequency.
`
`the vasodilation effects of electromagnetic
`Because of
`stimulation, people wilh unknown conditions
`(epileptic,
`cardiac. cerebral, and vascular conditions, etc.) may
`experience untoward affects such as, dizziness, nausea,
`profuse perspiration, or fai nting. If this occurs, cease trealment
`immediately and recommend treatment by a physician to
`ascertain the ur)derlying cause(s) of said untoward affects.
`
`FEATURES & BENEFITS
`
`The ARP features a blend of two signals: a main pulse and a
`background signal. The unique signal provides a "3_0"
`stimulation of the body area being treated. Patient
`participation is another featUre of the treatment system,
`resulting in self-directed therapy. Additional detail of treatment
`techniques can be found in the ARP Guide. Electrostimulation
`therapy has been found to be beneficial for a variety of
`conditions:
`
`• Relaxation of muscle spasms
`•
`Prevention and retardation of disuse atrophy
`•
`Increase of local blood circulation
`• Muscle re-education
`•
`Immediate post-surgical stimulation of calf muscle to
`prevent v~nous thrombosis
`• Maintaining and increasing range of motion of body
`limbs

`DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATOR CONTROLS
`
`POWER SWITCH
`The on/off switch is a front panel rocker switch which connects
`(ON) and disconnects (OFF) the power produced by the power
`supply from the remainder of the circuit.
`
`PULSE PRESENT INDICATOR
`This small green light, located on the front panel, indicates the
`presence of the main pulse in the output signal. The
`brightness is relative to the strength of the main pulse signal:
`off when there is no main pulse, to full brightness at full main
`pulse power.
`
`OUTPUT POWER DIAL
`This dial controls the output power of the ARP . This control
`adjusts the power for any combination of electrode pads.
`Turning the dial in a clockwise direction increases the output
`power.

`
`BALANCE DIAL
`This dial is used to adjust the relative Power delivered to the
`electrode pad-pairs and balances power between three or
`more pads. When the dial is turned completely to either the
`right or left channel, power is absent in the oppos~e channel.
`
`POLARITY SWITCH
`This rocker switch, labeled NORM and REV, reverses the
`polarity of the output signal. When switching polarity, the
`output power will reduce to the "Orr level, then gradually
`increase back
`to
`the
`initial output
`level
`to avoid any
`unnecessary discomfort to the patient.
`In the "Normal"
`position the black pad is negative and the red pad is positive,
`conforming to normal electrical conventions.
`
`--/'-ARP Tip
`Before changing polarity, the power level should be low, yet
`perceptible by the patient.

`
`MAIN PULSE FREQUENCY CONTROL DIAL
`This dial is used to adjust the frequency of the main pulse.
`Rotating the control clockwise will increase the main pulse
`frequency.
`
`NOTE: PPS is an abbreviation for pulses per second .
`
`Increasing the frequency results in the patient feeling a
`deeper sensation with less muscle contraction.
`
`DUTY CYCLE DIAL
`The duty cycle period is equal to about 20 seconds. This dial
`is used to select the main pulse active duty cycle. When
`rotated completely clockwise, the main pulse output will be
`continuously present at the frequency selected. When the dial
`is rotated completely counter-clockwise, the main pulse output
`will be disabled. Any other duty cycle (ratio of main pulse
`present/absent) can be selected between these two limits.
`This is called the intermittent mode.

`
`Use the Intermittent Mode when the therapist wishes to
`check on progress during
`the
`treatment
`time.
`The
`intermittent mode can be used to remove the stimulation for
`a period of time. During this lUll, the petient can be
`questioned about the feeling in the area being treated.

`
`TIMER
`
`The operator selects the treatment time (in whole minutes)
`using the MINS button . Each time the MINS button is
`pressed, the timer count advances one minute. If the MINS
`button is held down, the timer will continue to advance.
`Pressing the START/STOP button will begin the countdown.
`When the timer counts down to zero, an audible tone is
`activated . The RESET button will allow the operator to reset
`the timer counter to zero and to turn off the audible tone.
`The timer is NOT a control feature.
`It does not turn the
`machine off; it is for monitoring the length of the treatment
`only.
`
`REAR PANEL CONTROLS
`
`ARP can be powered by either a Lithium Ion battery
`supplied by ARP Manufacturing only or an ARP external
`power supply. The POWER SOU RCE SELECTION switch
`should be pressed toward the female power jack AT ALL
`TIMES. If this switch is pushed in the opposite direction, the
`ARP will not turn on.
`
`TO USE BATIERY POWER:
`
`Attach the lithium ion battery to the back right side of the
`machine via the hook-loop attaching material (Le .. Velcro).
`Plug the battery into the female power jack. The door on the
`back of the machine is no longer used. This switch should
`be depressed towards the Jack for both battery and wall
`power supply sources.
`
`If external power is desired, unplug the battery and plug the
`external power supply connection into the Power Jack in the
`back panel and make sure
`the POWER SOURCE
`SELECTION switch is ALWAYS depressed toward the Jack.
`
`TO RECHARGE BATIERY:
`
`Remove the lithium ion battery from the back of the ARP
`unit and charge with approved lithium ion battery charger
`supplied by ARP manufacturing.
`
`See page 2-22 for battery care and placement
`instructions.
`
`Note:
`The entire ARP timer display begins to flash on and off when
`is
`low and
`the battery should be
`the battery voltage
`exchanged for a fully charged battery. If the patient is being
`treated at this pOint, finish the treatment and then complete
`the exchange.
`
`Notes on the AC Ad apter
`
`1. Your power supply operates on 10~V-240V AC 50/60HZ.
`2. Do not share the AC outlet with other power-consuming
`equipment such as a copy machine or shredder.
`3. Do not place any objects on the power cord or power unit.
`4. To disconnect the cord pull it out by the plug, never pull

`ARP STERILIZATION PROCEDURES
`
`Sponge Conducting Pads
`
`The Sponge Conducting Pads are manufac1li!'d for the specific use with an electric modality such as the ARP. Other types of
`sponges will not provide equal conductivity over the treatment area . We highly recommend that each subject have their own set of
`sponges for sanitary reasons.
`If you are using the same sponges on several subjects, it is imperative that you sanitize these
`sponges between treatments. The sponges will become discolored and sometimes fray after several uses. This is the time to
`replace them and begin using new sponges. Use of typical sponge malerial could become harmful to the subjects. We recom(cid:173)
`mend using only the sponges manufactured for use with an electric modality.
`To sanitize the sponges follow the racommended procedure below:
`
`1. Use only antibacterial nontoxic+disinfectant solutions.
`
`2. Combine a solution of an antibacterial soap and very hot water to clean the sponges,
`squeezing them several times for sanitizing. Rinse the sponges completely
`in very hot water to release oils and dirt.
`
`In addition to sanitizing the sponges we recommend that you also use a disinfectant solution between treatments on the red and
`black electro conducting pads.
`
`DO NOT USE THE FOLLOWING :
`
`Alcohol, Ammonia. Bleach products or compounds, Iodine based solutions, i.e. Betadine/Povidone
`Iodine. and Quantinary Compounds, i.e. Zepharin Solution .
`
`Do not use any sanitizing devices such as steam or autoclave.

`
`The ARP battery charger is programmed to charge 4 hours.
`However. if the battery is needed sooner. it may be removed
`from the charger after 2 1/2 hours for a nearly full charge.
`
`The charger light glows red at beginning of charging cycle.
`turns to orange as the lithium ion battery is going thru
`charging, and finally turns green after 4 hours (the cycle
`ends).
`
`Do not attempt to charge the lithium ion battery with any other
`charger.
`
`Unlike the previous lead-acid battery. this battery may be
`allowed to completely discharge without harm. When the
`battery comes to the end of its current discharge cycle, the
`ARP will cease to operate. At this point, recharge the battery
`with the ARP battery charger and if further ARP operation is
`desired, plug the ARP into the power supply.
`
`These lithium ion batteries have an average number of
`recycles of 500. Depending upon the frequency of use, these
`batteries may tast up to three years or longer.
