The evoStim UG is an advanced medical device, marking a breakthrough in perineal electrical stimulation (PES). This device is a 2-channel electrotherapy unit specifically designed for pelvic floor treatment. It can be used with both vaginal and anal probes, offering an extremely versatile solution for various urological and gynecological issues. Combining modern technology with a user-friendly design, the device is suitable for professional healthcare settings as well as home use.
The evoStim UG device provides particularly valuable solutions for two main groups: healthcare professionals and patients.
From the therapists' perspective, the biggest advantages are its versatility and precise control options.
The IntelliSTIM function and five different program groups allow professionals to tailor treatment protocols to their patients. Its detailed feedback system and accurate parameter documentation help monitor therapy effectiveness. Therapists especially appreciate that it suits both initial clinical treatments and home-use training.
From the patients' standpoint, the main benefit of evoStim UG is the possibility of discreet home use.
The user-friendly design, combining a touchscreen and a rotary knob, ensures easy handling even for older or less tech-savvy patients. Automatic safety features, such as circuit break protection, provide security during home usage.
The device is especially recommended for patients who have difficulty attending regular clinical treatments or prefer therapy in a home environment. Its compact size and portability allow flexible scheduling of sessions, making it easy for patients to integrate therapy into daily life.
Both groups gain a significant benefit from the gradual intensity build-up during use, allowing both therapist and patient to safely find the optimal stimulation level. Documenting therapeutic results enables long-term therapy monitoring and adjustment if needed, increasing treatment success.
One of evoStim UG’s key technological innovations is the combination of a touchscreen interface and a unique rotary knob, enabling intuitive and precise control.
The device features an innovative automatic waveform regulation that operates independently across two channels and adapts to the probe type used.
This function ensures optimal therapeutic effect with maximum comfort, whether using ring or lateral electrodes.
Perineal electrical stimulation is a scientifically validated therapy, particularly effective for various forms of incontinence.
The electric impulses used work with a complex mechanism on the pelvic floor area. Stimulation primarily increases muscle tone and improves blood circulation.
Research shows that the treatment significantly elevates urethral closure pressure and positively affects bladder function.
Electrostimulation is especially effective in strengthening pelvic floor muscles.
When pubococcygeal muscle strength is low (Oxford scale 1 or 2), vaginal electrotherapy can yield quick improvements. Treatments typically enhance muscle strength by at least two scale points. This improvement results not only from increased muscle tone but also better blood flow, promoting muscle regeneration and strengthening.
For stress incontinence, evoStim UG applies relatively high-frequency electric impulses, generally between 35-100 Hz. This range stimulates the phasic muscle fibers, causing strong but brief contractions. Treatment sessions last about 20 minutes daily, with contraction times progressively increasing as muscles strengthen. Pulse width is adjustable between 100-400 microseconds based on patient sensitivity.
For urge incontinence, resulting from bladder detrusor instability, lower frequencies of 5-10 Hz are suggested. Pulse width typically optimizes between 250-400 microseconds. The protocol starts with one daily session in the first week, then decreases to 2-3 sessions weekly over the next 3-4 weeks.
Mixed incontinence, accounting for about 40% of cases, features both types. Treatment strategy considers the dominant component. Since urge symptoms often respond faster, these are usually treated first.
An alternative is performing two daily sessions separately focusing on urge and stress components.
evoStim UG includes five main program groups for different therapeutic targets.
Its unique IntelliSTIM function in the five default programs (P10, P20, P30, P40, P50) allows frequency modification without manual adjustment of other parameters.
Automatically, it optimizes pulse width and other settings for the selected frequency, ensuring maximum therapy efficiency.
Each touchscreen button (main program group) can hold up to 10 fully customizable programs, offering great flexibility for personalized treatments.
Use of evoStim UG is strictly contraindicated in certain cases.
Perineal electrotherapy’s specific contraindications include kidney diseases, active lower urinary tract infections, and pelvic tumors.
Treatment is not recommended with residual urine volumes over 100 ml or presence of vesicoureteral reflux.
A subjective contraindication is patient rejection or hypersensitivity to electrical stimulation.
Thorough preparation and understanding of safety rules are essential before starting treatment.
The device uses three AAA 1.5V alkaline batteries.
Wires connect to ports on the device’s bottom; single channel use requires connection to the CH1 port.
The probe should be moistened with tap water or water-based gel before use to ensure conductivity.
Insertion should be done carefully following medical guidance or probe instructions.
Stimulation intensity should be increased gradually until achieving a comfortable level causing noticeable muscle contraction.
Select the appropriate program from the five main groups before starting. Choice depends on patient condition and problem type. The touchscreen and rotary knob make navigation and parameter setting easy.
The device includes an automatic safety system that stops stimulation if circuit breaks or excessive resistance occur, preventing unwanted or excessive stimulation.
Intensity is adjusted gradually and can be fine-tuned during treatment.
Cleaning is crucial for device function and hygiene.
Use a soft, mildly alcohol-based wipe (Clinell device disinfecting wipe), avoiding water-based cleaners.
Perineal probes are for personal use only to avoid cross-infections.
Remove batteries if the device won't be used for a long time to prevent damage from leakage.
Battery replacement need is indicated on the display. Use only appropriate quality batteries for reliable operation.
Average battery life is about 20 hours, depending on program type and output level.
Output parameters are widely adjustable.
Current ranges from 1 to 99 mA at 1 kΩ load.
Frequency ranges from 1 to 150 Hz, pulse width from 50 to 400 microseconds.
The device offers two waveform types: "biphasic symmetric" and "biphasic symmetric alternating" impulses.
Sessions can be set from 5 to 90 minutes in 5-minute steps or continuous mode can be selected.
Includes automatic shutdown to save energy.
Clinical experience shows significant improvement in various incontinence types using evoStim UG.
Stress incontinence improvement is typically noticeable after 4-6 weeks of regular use.
Positive changes often appear already within the first week of treatment for urge incontinence.
Continuous technological progress is seen in perineal electrostimulation.
Future upgrades are expected for evoStim UG’s functions and capabilities. Its modular and software-updatable architecture allows later integration of new therapeutic protocols and features.
evoStim UG is a versatile and effective therapy device representing major advances in perineal stimulation.
Its flexibility, user-friendly design, and advanced features enable professional and home use.
Effective in treating different incontinence types and pelvic floor issues, with many customizable programs, it is a valuable tool in urological and gynecological therapy.
All electrodes combine plastic and metal. Electrode surfaces have a very thin gold plating, suitable even for metal allergy sufferers.
Incontinence therapy includes treatment for stress, urge, and fecal incontinence. Mixed incontinence can be treated with customized programs or sequential use of stress and urge programs.
For vaginismus treatment, the thin PeriSphera AT probe is recommended.
