Step 8: Attach Needle Electrode Clip

Attach Needle Electrode Clip by depressing the plunger and hooking it

around the Needle Electrode, close to the skin.

Step 9: Begin Treatment

Before turning on the Stimulator, talk to your patient about how you will

confirm that the stimulation is reaching the tibial nerve. Patient response

may be either motor or sensory; for some patients it may be both. Ask your

patient to let you know if they start to feel a sensation in their leg or foot.

After turning the Stimulator on, enter Test Mode by holding down the

yellow Test button for 2 seconds.

Step 10: Identify Treatment Level

Using Current Adjustment button, slowly increase setting while observing

patient's foot for a response and periodically asking the patient if they feel

any sensation in their leg or foot.

Step 11: Confirm Patient Response

Motor response is usually a toe flex (11A), toe fan (11B) or toe twitch.

Sensory response (11C) is generally described as a mild pulsing sensation

which travels away from the insertion site, towards the heel, arch, toes or

up the leg.

If the patient is uncomfortable, reduce current setting, reposition

needle electrode or try the other leg.

If the sensation is localized to the immediate area around the insertion

site, the needle electrode may need to be inserted further. About half

of the bottom portion of the electrode should be inserted in the leg.

If there is neither a motor or sensory response, adjust the needle

electrode. If there is still no response, discard the needle electrode

and try the other ankle.

Note that an individual patient's response may vary from treatment

to treatment, based on the needle electrode depth and location.
