Pain influences the quality of life
Pain conditions are one of the most frequent and burdensome forms of
sickness
DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever can be used to treat all types of pain

Function of DeKa-TitanFunction of DeKa-Titan
Pain is transmitted by an electrical Signal, which is called Action Potential.
This signal is sent by Axon to brain in order to transform or translate the pain
level.

Excitable cells, noziceptors possess a rest potential.
The interior of an excitable cell in the rest state is at a negative potential
between -60 to -100 mV to the external surface of the Axon tissue. This is
caused by the different distribution of the ions in the two spaces.

Function of DeKa-TitanFunction of DeKa-Titan
A stimulus causes an exceeded threshold potential. Induced by a by a briefly
(< 1 ms) opening of the membrane channals for the small sodium ions. The
membrane potential suddenly reduces, the nerve interior even becomes
temporarily positive.

After this „Relaxation-Time“ for repolarisation the cell has reached its ground
potential (-60 to –100 mV) and a subsequent process begins again

Function of DeKa-TitanFunction of DeKa-Titan
The nerve fibre is excitable at the earleast after 2 ms. So the pain stimulus is
transmitted by potential waves.
The maximum frequency action potentials can be triggered and conducted
over the nerve fibres is 500 1/s.
Basic information on pain transmission (V)
The calculated maximum possible frequency at which action potentials can
be triggered of 500 1/s does not comply with realistic in vivo-systems.
Explanation
In addition to the upstream pain-initiating system, a downstream pain-
inhibiting system exists, whose fibres originate from various levels of the
central nervous system and which regulates the flow of noziceptive stimuli.
As the upstream pulse current is controlled by the pain-inhibiting system –
like passing through a gate, this is also referred to as the gate control theory.
Endorphines and enkephalines have been identified as physiological activators
of the pain-inhibiting system.

Gate control theory
Pharmaceutical products use the downstream pain-inhibiting system of the
Gate Control Theory (Endorphines and enkephalines as physiological
activators).
The pulsating DC voltage from this system can be measured in the peripheral
nerve lines externally, i.e. through the skin and tissue.
DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever uses the upstream pain-initiating system.
Like a RC element in an electrical circuit, a special capacitor circuit of DeKa-
Titan ® - Pain Reliever placed on the skin makes it possible to smoothen the
potential differences leading to an attenuation of the signal current of pain to
the brain by nerves.
Thus a reduced level or no pain at all are reported to the brain.

The Idea
1010Manfred Lehnert Manfred Lehnert www.dekamed.comwww.dekamed.com 3.11.20083.11.2008
The DE-KA Titan Pain Reliever is basically suitable for handling any kind of
pain.
A definite pain pulse is important for stimulating the Pain Reliever.
Good results have been achieved especially for:
Headache, migraine, trigeminal neuralgia, painful joints, tennis elbow, sciatica
and back pain, general muscle pain and muscle cramp, rheumatism, post-
operative pain and weather sensitivity.
Application
DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever
Scientific tests conducted by recognized and neutral institutions proved the
effectiveness of the DE-KA Titan.
Tests conducted by a German University
Result: Significant reduction of pain duration
Pain Clinic
Just placing the sensor housing against the forearm veins produced
a test success rate of of 54 % after only 30 minutes
Chang An Hospital, Xian
Test period 2 months; 75% of the patients have experienced pain
relief
Own experiences with patients led to a success rate of over 80%

The DE-KA Titan is usually worn on the left wrist with the
flat side of the housing in contact with the inside of the
wrist. The wriststrap should not be too loose.
For severe pain in the lower extremities, it is advisable to
attach an adhesive electrode in the area of the lumbar
vertebrae, and for severe back pain or general pain an
electrode should be attached as an alternative to the
uppermost cervical vertebra.

Report on my Experience with the DE-KA-Titanium Bracelet
I am happy to report on my positive experience with the DE-KA-titanium bracelet. After the birth of my 2nd son in 1987, I started suffering from migraines. The attacks wereinitially hormone-induced and cycle-dependent. The hormonal therapies available at the time were, however, successful only in the beginning, as the syndrome became independent and was no longer cycle-dependent. Accordingly, starting menopause did not bring any advantages for me, and the strong headaches teamed up with an ever increasing nausea.
My husband is an established gynaecologist in a big practice, I myself am a member of a private medical aid insurance, which is certainly a favourable opportunity to make all therapeutic possibilities accessible to me.

Patient feedback
DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever DeKa-Titan ® - Pain Reliever
Everything imaginable had been tried, including all and any orthodox-medicine therapiesof a medicine-based nature, relaxation exercises and psychotherapy. Alternative medicine, naturopathy, acupuncture and homeopathy were, of course, given a go too. None of the methods was successful. It must be said that the continuous intake of anti-depressants and whenever necessary, the additional dose of strong pain killers brought about a certain partial success. I, however, had to discontinue this treatment, as my personal effectiveness in my manifold tasks was no longer given: I felt as if I had been wrapped in cotton wool and my natural mental alertness was totally suppressed.
In February 2008, I was introduced to the so-called “pain bracelet”, i.e. DE-KA-Titan. At first I was taken aback by the success and of course I was very happy. As recommended, I put on the titanium bracelet at the beginning of a migraine attack, connected it through cables with the correctly placed electrodes and went about my normal activities. To my absolute delight, up to 90 to 100 percent of the pain was no longer perceived. I did not have to take any pain killers. In many cases, when the additional feeling of nausea was not totally gone, I took a simple Vomex A suppository.
Apart from the truly gained quality of life, I thought it was wonderful that I did not suffer any interference or reduction whatsoever in my effectiveness.
My success prompted my husband to introduce the titanium bracelet to his patients now.
