Description
The Sonopuls StatUS Module: The Static Ultrasound upgrade for the sonopuls 492, sonopuls 490 or sonopuls 190.
Developed by Enraf-Nonius in collaboration with international institutes, StatUS™ is a safe and effective treatment opportunity to apply therapeutic ultrasound without having to move the treatment head. StatUS™ ultrasound is the latest development in therapy and treatment comfort.
No more time consuming treatment methods, but quick and easy. The Sonopuls ultrasound with the StatUS™ Pack 400 offers numerous advantages for both the therapist and the patient. Simply connect the StatUS™ Pack to your Sonopuls 490, 492 or 190 and you can immediately benefit from hands free ultrasound.
Would you like to work with conventional treatment heads too? Even then there is a version that suits you! The StatUS™ can be connected to the Sonopuls devices, that are equipped with a large or small treatment head. Once connected, you simply choose if you want to use a conventional multi-frequency treatment head (dynamic method) or the StatUS™ applicator (for handsfree ultrasound)
Hands Free
Hands free ultrasound makes a difference for both patient and therapist. StatUS ultrasound is a new revolutionary method of applying therapeutic ultrasound. The Sonopuls StatUS offers the possibility of HANDS FREE ULTRASOUND. A fast and time-saving application. Do more in less time.
Hands-free = time saving
As StatUS™ is a handsfree therapy, the therapist has valuable extra time during treatment.
Hands-free = less labour intensive
As the therapist does not have to hold the head, StatUS™ is ideally suited for long(er) treatments.
Hands-free = Less demanding
As the therapist does not have to hold the head, a StatUS™-treatment is physically less demanding.
Hands-free = greater ease of use
Increased comfort for both the patient and the therapist.
Fast and easy
StatUS™-therapy is instantly available and easy to set up
Non-liquid gelpad
A non-liquid gelpad ensures good transmission of the ultrasound energy. The gelpad is held in place with a fixing ring. The vacuum pressure creates a perfect seal between the body, the gelpad and the treatment head.
The constant perpendicular position of the fixed StatUS™ applicator reduces dosage variations as in dynamic ultrasound applications. This enhances clinical effectiveness and patient safety.
Despite the stationary application hot spots will not occur during StatUS™ treatment, due to two innovative and intelligent forms of modulation: Amplitude Modulation and Duty Cycle Modulation. These (patented) forms of modulation ensure safe treatments without the peak intensities that can create hot spots.
Although it is a static application method, StatUS™ therapy is safe and effective.
StatUS™ therapy does not really differ from conventional ultrasound therapy. The differences are found in the application method. The StatUS™ incorporates an unique technology and special modulations.
The StatUS™ applicator is a multi-frequency ultrasound treatment head that is integrated in a vacuum cup. In just a few seconds the applicator can be attached to the body.

Effective treatment
StatUS™ offers unprecedented advantages. StatUS™ therapy is the ideal and effective treatment method for musculoskeletal and soft tissue disorders. With the Sonopuls 490 or 492 and Status™ Pack 400 from Enraf-Nonius you can work both thermally and a-thermally. The Sonopuls 490 and 492 with StatUS™ are also ideally suited for LIPUS applications.
StatUS™ therapy is relatively simple. The parameters for StatUS™ therapy can be selected quickly and easily via the touchscreen. To simplify the therapy options, a number of pre-programmed StatUS™-protocols are stored in the Sonopuls 490 and 492. These evidence based protocols provide you with clear treatment instructions while the treatment parameters are set automatically.
More efficient StatUS™ does this work for you, without compromising efficiency and effectiveness. StatUS™ makes your job faster, more targeted and more efficient.
The set treatment time is also the effective treatment time. The set capacity is effectively transferred to the appropriate tissue.
Benefits and advantages of the StatUS™ Pack
Non-liquid gelpads:
- No more gel residue
- Easy to clean / hygienic
- Efficient energy transmission
Safe
Special modulation forms ensure that undesired intensity peaks in the ultrasound bundle are considerably reduced. The chance of cavitation is reduced and the occurrence of hotspots is counter-acted.
Efficient
The treatment head is always at the right angle. The special gelpad follows the body’s contours. This combination ensures an even and constant transfer of energy along the whole surface of the head.
52 Evidence based StatUS™ protocols
The Sonopuls devices with StatUS pack offer a full library with 52 evidence based protocols. Just with a few clicks you will get all information and the proper settings for the pathology selected.
