2. Frequency = DEPTH. most common frequency is 3
MHz superficial, 1 MHz is Deep
4 cm is significant amount of tissue depth and
requires 1 MHz
1. Intensity = measure of rate where energy is being
delivered per unit of area.
(0.5 - 1.0 W/cm^2 = NON thermal
1.1 - 2.0 W/cm^2 = Thermal)
Highest safe intensity = 8/BNR
3. ERA = portion of surface of transducer that
produces sound wave. Area of 2 to 3 times
transducer head = 5 minutes!
4. BNR = ratio of intensity of highest peak to
average intensity of all peaks. DETERMINES SAFEST
SPEED to move sound head to prevent tissue
damage and in-crease patient comfort
4.Transparent film dressing
- allows for frequent assessment of wound and
otters some level of protection.
1. Calcium alginate for MOD - HEAVY exudate,
not superficial wound
2. Hydrocolloid dressing for partial and full-
thickness wounds, not superficial wound

on the posterior surface of the

completes a leg curl exercise.
As shown in the im-age, the
visible medial and lateral
tendons are MOST likely
associat-ed with which of the
following mus-cles?
1. Semimembranosus
and semi-tendinosus
