PERISPHERA® A – Anal probe for incontinence rehabilitation
The probe is intended for the treatment of male patients with post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence or patients with defecatory disorders. The depth of insertion is adjustable, from 40 to 55 mm, according to the anatomical structure of the patient, by means of the safety hilt with 4 positions which also determines the correct orientation of the probe. The 4 electrodes (2 front and 2 rear) can be connected to separate output channels of the electrostimulation unit or to a single channel (through special “Y”-shaped optional wire adaptors).

Product category: Incontinence systems and stoma aids
PERISPHERA® – O – Vaginal probe for incontinence rehabilitation
Characterised by two spherical electrodes, it is intended for global, undifferentiated and simultaneous stimulation of the puborectalis and both branches of pubococcygeal muscles, regardless of the orientation of insertion into the vagina.
Its large stimulation surface, determined by the area of the two spherical electrodes, enables an excellent recruitment of the muscle groups involved in the control of continence.

Product category: Incontinence systems and stoma aids
PERISPHERA® – E – Vaginal probe for incontinence
With two egg-shaped electrodes and predominant insulation on the top, it is intended for the global stimulation or the EMG biofeedback of the pelvic floor excluding the upper wall adjacent to the bladder. In the treatment of patients with asymmetric perineal muscles following episiotomy or lacerations the PERISPHERA®-E probe allows selective treatments. By rotating the probe 90 degrees to the left or to the right, you can apply a one-sided and independent treatment to each of the two branches of the pubococcygeal.

Product category: Incontinence systems and stoma aids
PERISPHERA® – H – Vaginal probe for incontinence rehabilitation
The probe is characterised by a double circuit, consisting of 4 electrodes arranged radially, which are designed to intercept the two branches (left and right) of the pubococcygeal muscle separately.
It offers the advantage of being able to treat the two branches of the pubococcygeal muscle asymmetrically and independently but simultaneously with 2 electrostimulation channels or 2 EMG biofeedback channels (for muscle asymmetry resulting
from episiotomy).

Product category: Incontinence systems and stoma aids
PERISPHERA® – Q – Vaginal probe for incontinence rehabilitation
The probe is characterised by four laterally arranged electrodes, designed to separately treat the two branches (L and R) of the pubococcygeus muscle. Given the particular shape and arrangement of the electrodes, which also extend on the under side of the probe, it is possible to optimally involve the pubococcygeus muscle and puborectalis regardless of the patient’s position.

Product category: Incontinence systems and stoma aids
PERISPHERA® – U – Vaginal probe for incontinence rehabilitation
The probe is characterised by a double circuit formed by two large flat electrodes (lower side) for the global stimulation of the pelvic floor and two “saddle-shaped” side electrodes for the undifferentiated stimulation of both the right and the left branches of the pubococcygeal muscle. For optimum use it is advisable to utilise both circuits, however if the operator is accustomed using probes only equipped with side electrodes.

evoStim E – Therapeutic unit for Electrostimulation, Biofeedback (EMG), Evoked stimulation
The therapeutic unit evoStim® E is an electromedical equipment for perineal re-education by electrostimulation and EMG biofeedback. It allows passive perineal treatments (with 1 electrostimulation channel), active perineal recovery (with 1 biofeedback channel) and perineal muscular re- learning (by EMG-triggered electrostimulation).
It is intended for both professional use and personal use by the patient.
Perineal electrostimulation
(programmes URGE-STRESS-MIX-PAIN)
In personal use, the rapid selection of a perineal electrostimulation program, among the 4 available, is intuitive for the patient and, when the unit is switched-ON, the last program previously used is loaded.
The pulse generator can deliver symmetrical biphasic pulses (for ring electrode probes) or alternating biphasic pulses (for side-electrode probes).
EMG Biofeedback
Biofeedback is of EMG type, and can be applied either on perineal muscles (with vaginal / anal probe) or on external muscles (with transcutaneous self-adhering electrodes). Since the acquired EMG signal is in the order of a few μV, EMG biofeedback also requires the use of a transcutaneous reference electrode, essential for the suppression of electrical interference.
Visual feedback on the display consists in switching-on a number of concentric circles proportional to the pressure exerted on the balloon of the probe by perineal muscles, during a voluntary contraction. With the range self- calibration, administering biofeedback programs is quite easy with the evoStim® E unit.
Evoked stimulation (programme EVO)
Evoked stimulation, also called muscular cognitive re- learning, Evoked stimulation exploits both, the active re-education (biofeedback) and passive re-education (electrostimulation). The EVO program provides action/rest cycles of electrical stimulation, but any cycle must be triggered by the voluntary contraction of the patient when a certain threshold is attained. The acquired EMG signal is measured in μV and it is directly proportional to the contraction of perineal muscles, which may be measured in the vagina. The pre-defined trigger threshold is 8 μV and may be modified by the user. The threshold also changes automatically, increasing every 3 valid voluntary contractions. The last reached threshold value is automatically stored at the end of the session and will be the start threshold of the next session. Patient’s ability, his/her willing and perseverance to reach ever greater thresholds makes this program involving and effective for functional recovery of the pelvic floor.

evoStim P – Therapeutic unit for perineal Electrostimulation, Biofeedback (Pressure), Evoked stimulation
The therapeutic unit evoStim® P is an electromedical equipment for perineal re-education by intra-vaginal electrostimulation and pressure biofeedback. It allows passive perineal treatments (with 1 electrostimulation channel), active perineal recovery (with 1 biofeedback channel) and perineal muscular re-learning (by pressure- triggered electrostimulation).
It is intended for both professional use and personal use by the patient.
Perineal electrostimulation
(programmes URGE-STRESS-MIX-PAIN)
In personal use, the rapid selection of a perineal electrostimulation program, among the 4 available, is intuitive for the patient and, when the unit is switched-ON, the last program previously used is loaded.
The pulse generator can deliver symmetrical biphasic pulses (for ring electrode probes) or alternating biphasic pulses (for side-electrode probes). In addition to the probe included in the standard package, any type of perineal probe available on the market may be used provided it has 2 mm female connectors.
Pressure Biofeedback
The perineal biofeedback is of manometric type, it can be carried out with the special balloon probe supplied in the package or with any type of probe equipped with Luer-lock female pneumatic link.
Visual feedback on the display is obtained by switching-on a number of concentric circles proportional to the pressure exerted on the probe balloon by perineal muscles during a voluntary contraction.
Evoked Stimulation (programme EVO)
Evoked stimulation exploits both, the active re- education (biofeedback) and passive re-education (electrostimulation).
The EVO programme provides action/rest cycles of electrical stimulation, but any cycle must be triggered by the
voluntary contraction of the patient when a certain threshold is attained.
The ballon pressure is measured in CmH2O and it is directly proportional to the contraction of perineal muscles measured within the vaginal walls. The pre-defined trigger threshold is 8 cmH2O and can be changed by the user. The threshold also changes automatically, increasing every 3 valid voluntary contractions. The last reached threshold value is automatically stored at the end of the session and will be the start threshold of the next session.
Patient’s ability, his/her willing and perseverance to reach ever greater thresholds makes this program involving and effective for functional recovery of the pelvic floor.

evoStim UG – Dual channel, therapy unit for re-education of urinary incontinence by perineal electrostimulation
Description
evoStim® UG is a dual channel electrical stimulator specifically designed for perineal stimulation with vaginal or anal probes. It is ease to use without sacrificing the flexibility and performance. The touch-screen and the unique rotating knob offer a friendly interface either for professional or home use. The intensity of stimulation and the waveform are adjustable independently on the two channels, offering the possibility of using probes with 4 electrodes of different shapes and positions.
The ergonomics of evoStim® UG unit is based on the rotation of the upper knob (to adjust the stimulation intensity or the value of the various parameters) and the push of the button, integrated in the same knob, to turn the unit on / off or pause / resume it. Changing the stimulation intensity or any other parameter must first be enabled by tapping the appropriate area of the touch screen.
Intended use
The evoStim® UG unit can be directly used by the patient, but it is also suitable for professional use by health professionals dealing with physiotherapy and rehabilitation. Perineal electrical stimulation (PES) is commonly used to treat urinary incontinence in its various forms: urge, stress and mixed.
50 programmes for perineal electrostimulation
The 5 virtual buttons at the bottom of the screen allow to quickly select one of the 5 therapeutic aims for the treatment of incontinence (URGE, STRESS and MIX) or for the treatment of pelvic pain (PAIN) or for the treatment of vaginism (RELX).
Each one of the 5 quick-selection virtual buttons is associated with a “standard” program, which is supported by the automatic parameter setting function (ACTION / REST) if the stimulation frequency is changed.
Therefore, since the last program used is re-loaded when the device is switched-on again, the simplified direct use for the patient only requires:

switch-ON the unit,
select one of the 5 virtual buttons (for the first session only),
adjust the stimulation level for one or both channels.

Instead, the professional can link a different program (each of 10 for each button) to each of the 5 virtual buttons and all the parameters can be permanently changed. At any time, however, you can reset to the factory settings a single program, a program group, or all programs.
2 wave-shapes for different types of probes
Selecting the type of probe connected to the unit,
automatically selects the most suitable waveform on each of
the two channels:

Symmetrical biphasic rectangular pulses for the probes with ring electrodes;
Alternating biphasic rectangular pulses for probes with lateral electrodes.

PERIPROBE VAG-2STW – Vaginal probe with 2 electrodes for perineal reeducation by electrical stimulation or EMG biofeedback
Description and intended use
Personal vaginal probe with 2 circular electrodes, anatomica shape, for the treatment of urinary incontinence by electrical stimulation or EMG biofeedback. It may be used either, by the professional dealing with incontinence re- education, or directly by the patient for home care.
For perineal electrostimulation
It must be used as applied part of a certified electro-medical equipment, supplying symmetrical biphasic pulses (zero mean value). The anatomical shape and the two circular, distal and proximal electrodes, spaced 25 mm, allow undifferentiated stimulation of all perineal muscles. A large plastic ring defines the insertion limit of the probe. It has to remain outside the vagina and is aimed to separate the internal portion of the probe by the external connecting area. Connecting the probe to the therapeutical unit is made by a couple of flexible lead wires 20 cm long, ending by 2 mm female connectors.
For perineal biofeedback
As an alternative to electrical stimulation, it can be used for perineal biofeedback, if connected to an electro-medical device suitable for detecting and displaying surface EMG signals (sEMG). Since the electromyographic detection requires a reference electrode, it is necessary to apply a trans-cutaneous adhesive electrode on the outer surface of the skin, preferably at a bony prominence (eg: iliac crest).
Patient position for use
It is suitable to treat a patient in laying position and the special design, in addition to ensuring a perfect anatomical fit with the vaginal walls, allows for easy insertion and comfortable retention by the patient.

Description and intended use
Personal vaginal probe with 2 circular electrodes and central balloon, for the treatment of urinary incontinence by electrical stimulation or EMG and Pressure biofeedback. It may be used either, by the professional dealing with incontinence re-education, or directly by the patient for home care.
For perineal electrostimulation
It must be used as applied part of a certified electro- medical equipment, supplying symmetrical biphasic pulses (zero mean value).
The anatomical shape and the two circular, distal and proximal electrodes, spaced 40 mm, allow undifferentiated stimulation of all perineal muscles.
A large plastic ring defines the insertion limit of the probe. It has to remain outside the vagina and is aimed to separate the internal portion of the probe by the external connecting area. Connecting the probe to the therapeutical unit is made by a couple of flexible lead wires 20 cm long, ending by 2 mm female connectors.
For perineal biofeedback
As an alternative to electrical stimulation, it can be used for perineal biofeedback, if connected to an electro- medical device suitable for detecting and displaying surface EMG signals (sEMG). Since the electromyographic detection requires a reference electrode, it is necessary to apply a trans-cutaneous adhesive electrode on the outer surface of the skin, preferably at a bony prominence (eg: iliac crest). The same probe can be used for pressure biofeedback (also simultaneously with EMG) by detecting, through the balloon, the global pressure of the pelvic floor, which is directly proportional to the force produced by the perineal muscles. In some cases, the use of the manometric biofeedback by the VAG-2STFW probe is easier than with the EMG biofeedback, because it is not affected by hormonal factors of the vaginal mucosa. Furthermore, manometric biofeedback does not implies any external reference electrode.The balloon is made of medical silicone. For the pressure biofeedback, the probe must be used with manometric biofeedback equipment, using a standard Luer-lock pneumatic connection (ISO 594). The probe does not require to be pre-inflated; only precaution, connect the probe to the biofeedback unit, before insert it into vagina.
Patient position for use
It is suitable to treat a patient in laying position, the particular construction makes it easy to introduce and comfortable to be retained by the patient

TOTEM-UG – wireless wearable professional unit for incontinence rehabilitation

small & compact wearable unit dual channel perineal stimulation
dual channel perineal EMG biofeedback
dual channel perineal pressure biofeedback
wireless connection to the host computer
two wave-shapes, selectable according to the probe type
local visualisation of the levels by LCD display
detachable Li-Po battery

Intended use
TOTEM-UG is a patient’s wearable professional unit for the re-education of incontinence by electrostimulation and / or perineal biofeedback, through wireless connection (wireless) with a personal computer. Therapeutic goals are the attenuation or remission of incontinence, exploiting the effectiveness of perineal stimulation and the great contribution of biofeedback techniques to the
functional re-learning. The TOTEM-UG unit is applied to the waist of the patient by means of the belt enclosed in the package.
The use of TOTEM-UG is intended for healthcare professionals trained for perineal incontinence rehabilitation (gynaecologists, urologists, physiatrists, physiotherapists, obstetricians).
The special probe TOTEM Combicon
It allows to:
1 – perform the asymmetric electrostimulation of the two branches of the pubococcygeus muscle with independent parameters and intensities and, simultaneously, acquire a pressure value proportional to the global contraction of perineal muscles.
2 – Simultaneously acquire the EMG signals produced during the voluntary contraction of the two branches of the pubococcygeus muscle and, simultaneously, acquire a pressure value proportional to the global contraction of perineal muscles.
Electrical stimulation and EMG Biofeedback
Electrical stimulation is performed by symmetrical biphasic pulse generators (or alternating biphasic pulses, in case of probes with lateral electrodes), with controlled energy.
In addition to the probes included in the package or supplied as optional accessories, the unit may be used with any type of perineal probe with at least two electrodes and 2mm female connectors.
Pressure Biofeedback
In addition to the EMG biofeedback, the manometric intra- cavity biofeedback can be performed, with a probe VAG-2STFW or any type of balloon probe equipped with Luer-lock female pneumatic connection. With the double biofeedback channel, it is possible to acquire and show on a monitor an intra-cavity pressure signal (vaginal probe) and, simultaneously, a surface EMG signal with transcutaneous electrodes applied over abdominal muscles. This procedure is suitable for the treatment of perineal dysfunctions linked to the so called “inversion of command”.
