Intelect® Focus Shockwave
World Class Medical Technology for Clinicians
Intelect® Focus Shockwave
The Intelect® Focus Shockwave offers state-of-the-art Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT).
In ESWT a wave is produced by a small explosion generated underwater inside an 'applicator. ‘This wave is focused through a lens and transmitted into the tissue.
This focused shockwave can be electromagnetically generated; it has high energy, around one hundred times more powerful than a Radial Pressure Wave, making it optimum for a range of conditions in urology, orthopaedic indications, cardiology and neurology.
Deep therapy regions can be treated safely and reliably with focused shock waves.
The large focal zone provides enhanced targeting precision.
Indications:
- Achillodynia
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Tibial stress syndrome
- Calcific tendinitis
- Patellar tendinitis
- Epicondylitis
- Metatarsalgia
- Trigger points: periarticular shoulder pain
TWO TYPES OF SOUND WAVES
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) technology encompasses the use of two distinct forms of sound waves to transfer energy into tissue, resulting in two types of shockwave devices that clinicians can choose to incorporate into their practice.
Focus Shockwaves vs. Radial Pressure Waves
The Chattanooga® Focus Shockwave device generates sound waves via an electromagnetic hand piece with a built-in water buffer, while the Radial Pressure Wave devices utilize a pneumatic/ballistic design. These differences impact the waveforms they produce.
Focused shockwaves have higher peak energy and generate maximal force at a selected depth. Radial pressure wave devices generate their maximal energy on the skin, which then dissipates as it travels to depth. Energy levels at depth are dictated by the settings on the machine and the applicator used.
