For muscle reeducation by application of external stimulation to the muscles necessary for pharyngeal contraction.

The devices are single patient, multiple-use [up to three times] cutaneous electrodes for the application of electrical stimulation. The lead wire is attached to the electrode and is designed to be connected to a transcutaneous external muscle stimulator. The cutaneous electrodes are available in two sizes; one for adult patients and one for youth patients. Both sizes are composed of identical materials. The cutaneous electrodes and lead wire do not contain active electronics, software or firmware. The lead wire connects to the cutaneous electrotherapy device. The cutaneous electrodes are composed of materials commonly used in this application: polyethylene, medical grade adhesives, 'spunlace' non-woven, carbon film, silver, polyester, and hydrogel.

This device is intended for muscle re-education by application of external stimulation to the muscles necessary for pharyngeal contraction.

This device is a dual channel battery operated electrical stimulator for use with skin surface electrodes. The output current in each channel can be adjusted from 0-25 ma in 1 ma increments. The pulse repetition rate is fixed at 80 Hz. The output waveform is bipolar symmetrical constant current.
