4.4.3 Electrode placement
The placement of electrodes can be one of the most important
parameters in achieving success with therapy. Of utmost
importance is the willingness of the physician to try the various
styles of electrode placement to find which method best fits the
needs of the individual patient.
Every patient responds to electrical stimulation differently and
their needs may vary from the conventional settings suggested
here. If the initial results are not positive, speak to your
physician about alternative stimulation settings and/or
electrode placements. Once an acceptable location has been
achieved, mark down the electrode sites and the device
settings, so the patient can easily continue treatment.
