IVES

Integrated Volitional control Electrical Stimulator

Effective Rehabilitation with IVES

IVES is an integrated Volitional control Electrical Stimulator that can be used for upper- or lower-limb rehabilitation of patients with paralysis caused by cerebrovascular diseases or locomotive disabilities.

All functions from setup to treatment are integrated into one compact body

A vatiey of treatment modes, to fit a wide range of pathologies.

“Power Assist mode” as well as five other treatment modes are available. A single unit can be used for various cases of patients’ needs.

Up to 45 treatment patterns can be stored and easily recalled for later use.

IVES+ administrative functions

When IVES is connected, its treatment modes are enabled and a patient’s treatment history including total treatment time, the number of times stimulation was emitted and the cumulative simulation time.

IVES is a pocket-sized stimulator that's so simple to operate.

Easy to use

After entering the treatment settings in IVES+, simply press the START button to begin treatment

Compact and Lightweight

IVES is about the size of a cell phone and weighs only 95 grams.

Easy Battery Charging

Just place it on the battery charger to charge

Can be used for upper or lower limb treatments

Equipped with Power Assist Mode and Sensor Trigger Mode. Treatment parameters for both upper and lower limbs can be stored in one device.

Equipped with six treatment modes to accommodate a variety of symptoms and conditions, from the hospital to patient's home

Power Assist Mode [Voluntary movement + Electrical Stimulation]

Using real-time feedback, electrical stimulation is output in proportion to EMG signal in the body part being treated. The amount of strength exerted can be visually monitored with the muscle action potential indicator lights

External Assist Mode

*available only for GD-611

*requires bipolar electrode cord (optional accessory)

Electrical stimulation is emitted in proportion to the EMG signal in a body part other than the one being treated. By stimulating the paralyzed side of the body in proportion to the EMG signal in the healthy side, both sided can be trained.

Trigger Mode

*available only for GD-611

When the EMG signal in the body part being treated reaches the present threshold, electrical Stimulation is output according the present parameters.

External Trigger Mode

*available only for GD-611

*requires bipolar electrode cord (optional accessory)

When the muscle action potential a body part other than the one being treated reaches the preset threshold, electric stimulations output according to the preset parameters.

*Bipolar electrode cords and IVES gel electrodes are required to use this mode.

Normal Mode

*available only for GD-611

Outputs electrical Stimulation according to preset parameters

Sensor Trigger Mode

*Gait sensor required (optional accessory)

Electrical Stimulation starts and stops based on feedback from the gait sensor. When the gait sensor detects that the patient's heel has left the floor, stimulation is output based on preset parameters.
