IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
CONTRAINDICATIONS
There are a number of contraindications in the context of the relevant fields of the Air250 Abdominal use. In rehabilitation, only the medical staff can determine the form and extent of therapy. Medications can have an influence on the rehabilitation (e.g. neuroleptics, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, anti-epileptics, etc.). In the following cases, Air250 Abdominal training may only be carried out after consultation with a doctor:
· Pregnancy · Acute thrombosis · Fresh wounds (e.g. after surgery) · Artificial joints or prosthetics · Bone fractures · Spinal disc damage · Traumatic injury to the spine · Diabetes · Epilepsy · Inflammation
· Acute migraine headache · Chronic illnesses · Cancer · Acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris
(determined by a stress test) · Cardiovascular diseases e.g. severe high blood pressure
at rest, carditis, congestive heart failure, severe valvular heart disease, dangerous heart arrhythmias at rest, or aortic aneurysm
If the patient is experiencing acute illness, febrile condition (i.e. fever), or newly occurring pain, this represents an absolute
contraindication for physical stress. In such situations, it is necessary to postpone training until the patient’s health has improved sufficiently.
In some situations (especially in patients with coronary heart disease or lung disease) overstraining can lead to an acute intensification of the patient’s symptoms. In such situations, an exercise ECG is essential and training is only possible
under medical supervision.
The use of the automated operation (pulse automatic, preset programs, external control via computer or other device) is prohibited, unless the strain was authorized by a physician in accordance with the patient’s capacity/health.
For applications in endurance training, diagnostics and performance testing of patients, performance diagnostics, and stress tests, the same contraindications apply (among others) as with all physical stress. If there is doubt, it is important that a physician be consulted before using the Air250 Abdominal.
