Device Story
Accusonic Advantage Model AA170 is an ultrasonic diathermy device designed to apply therapeutic deep heat to body tissues. It operates by converting electrical energy into ultrasonic waves via a transducer, which are then applied to the patient's skin to generate heat in deep tissues. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals, the device assists in managing pain, muscle spasms, and joint contractures, and promotes local blood flow. The provider controls the intensity and duration of the ultrasonic application based on the patient's therapeutic needs. The device provides a non-invasive method for physical medicine and rehabilitation, aiming to improve patient comfort and mobility through thermal effects.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
