Z TEK™ is intended to be used by clinicians in symptomatic relief of chronic intractable pain. Also, for post traumatic and post surgical pain relief.

Electrical nerve stimulation dates back to thousands of years BC. The therapeutic use of electric eels and torpedo fish for local analgesia effect was first described by Scribonius Lorgus in 46 AD.

Biologically, the output waveform of Z TEK resembles the portion of an axion action potential during its initial depolarization up until the time of its relative refractory period. Although the frequency and amplitude of Z TEK are different, the picture of the output waveform looks very similar to the natural axion action potential waveform. However no DC level is allowed in the output of a nerve stimulator which is mandated by the FDA. Since an axion cell membrane has a resting potential of approximately – 70 millivolts, this would be a point of difference in the above comparison.

Z TEK produces an electrical exponentially decaying impulse pulse type waveform controllable in both frequency and amplitude with two channels available. The output of energy transfer to patients is described in the specification section and is referred to as microcoulombs. The term microcoulomb refers to the amount of energy available in the output waveform of each channel of Z TEK and relates the output energy of nerve stimulators to the application of electrical induction of analgesic effects to the human body.

Z TEK gives its users the greatest control and degree of power output available to effect the maximum control and management of pain in the broadest spectrum of patient requirements.

Z TEK will allow you to effectively reduce chronic and acute pain in your management of one of the most critical aspects of patient health care. Patients that use Z TEK avoid the risk of possible adverse effects of different drug therapies, and the uncomfortable and sometimes crippling, over-medicated effect is avoided.
