PULSE DURATION
Wider pulse duration settings will deliver stronger stimulation for any
given intensity setting. As mentioned in the Controls section, by using a
combination of intensity and pulse duration, it is felt that various pulse
widths are capable of stimulating different groups of nerve fibers.
The choice of which pulse duration to use is partially dependent upon the
Treatment Mode and Protocol selected (refer to the appropriate section).
PULSE RATE
The Pulse Rate (hertz or pulses per second) chosen depends greatly upon
the type of electrode placement given to the patient.
When using contiguous and dermatome electrode placements (i.e.
