What is it indicated for?

The Lifecare HC-88 Series Conductive Garments are cutaneous electrodes to be used with

legally marketed electrical stimulators (such as powered muscle stimulators and

transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators).

The knitted garment electrodes will deliver the stimulation signals generated by the stimulator

to the body surface with which they are in contact.

These body parts include hands (gloves), feet (socks), wrists / elbows (wristlets / elbow

guards) and knees (kneecaps).

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
