SUPER INDUCTIVE SYSTEM

COMPETITOR COMPARISON

All you need to know in one place

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY!


CONTENT

• Introduction
• Observe all things
• Get familiar with competitors
I. INTRODUCTION
CLARIFY FOR YOURSELF

THERE ARE 3 GROUPS OF MEDICAL DEVICES WHICH


USE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD TECHNOLOGY

• 1st group – direct competitors using the same technology


like SIS for treatment of the musculoskeletal system

• 2nd group - competitors using the same technology like SIS


for brain stimulation

• 3rd group – devices using low-intensity electromagnetic


field technology for the treatment of the musculoskeletal
system
II. OBSERVE EVERYTHING
WHAT TO OBSERVE

THERE ARE A FEW PARAMETERS YOU SHOULD OBSERVE


IN COMPETITORS

• Max. stimulation intensity (1st and 2nd group)


• Intensity of the electromagnetic field (3rd group)
• Wide frequency range and ability to deliver 100% intensity
• Cooling system

THE EXPLANATION FOLLOWS


MAX. STIMULATION INTENSITY (Max. dB/dT)

IT´S NOT ABOUT TESLAS BUT THE PARAMETER THAT


DETERMINES THE STIMULATION INTENSITY IN THE TISSUE

• The parameter tells how much current you bring to the tissue
• The higher the value, the more intense stimulation
• The current is induced in the tissue based on Faraday´s Law of
Induction
• Easy calculation:
• I = current
• B = intensity of the electromagnetic field (in Teslas)
• π = a constant (value 3.14)
• T = pulse width
• T/s = unit Tesla per second
FREQUENCY RANGE AND 100% INTENSITY

BRING IT TO THE MAXIMUM

• Frequency is one of the parameters determining the therapeutic


effect
• The most important is to have the ability to deliver 100% of
intensity even with higher frequencies
• This is connected also to the ability to work continuously
• A typical characteristic of competitors is the rapid decrease of
intensity
COOLING SYSTEM

COOL DOWN AND REMEMBER

• The cooling system is crucial in high-intensity electromagnetic


technology
• The cooling system is typically connected to the ability of the
device to work continuously
• There are various types of cooling systems such as air-cooling
(forced or passive), oil or water cooling
WHY SUPER INDUCTIVE SYSTEM WINS?

PROUD TO SAY

• The highest max. stimulation intensity


• Delivers 100% intensity even with high frequencies
• Ability to work continuously due to patented Cool-Flow
technology and Intensity Predictor
• Equipped with Pulse Quality Monitor which ensures smooth
operation of the device and monitors each pulse

* All competitors claim they have “max 3 Tesla” or “up to 3 Teslas” intensity. This means that their real intensity is much
lower and rapidly decreases when the user wants to work continuously or with higher frequencies. See more on slide

ZIMMER TALKS THE TALK AND WALKS THE WALK

DID YOU KNOW THAT?

• Zimmer as a German high-end brand resells cheap Korean


device
• Zimmer offers transformed Salus Talent device in the different
trolley named EmField Pro
• EmField Pro is not even certified on Zimmer
• The device uses oil cooling and has a high number of service
cases
• Almost 100% of applicators need to be replaced during
warranty
ZIMMER TALKS THE TALK AND WALKS THE WALK
