Which item is NOT typically documented after an electrotherapy session?

• A. Modality used.
• B. Parameters such as frequency, pulse width, amplitude.
• C. Patient response and adverse events.
• D. Patient's blood type.

Answer: (D)

Documentation after an electrotherapy session focuses on what was delivered and how the patient tolerated it. Clinicians record the modality used, the exact settings like frequency, pulse width, and amplitude, and the patient’s response, including any adverse events. These details are essential for safely repeating or adjusting the treatment in future sessions and for tracking progress or safety concerns over time.

Blood type, however, isn’t part of this immediate treatment information. It doesn’t influence the electrical parameters or the safety and effectiveness of a typical electrotherapy session, so it’s not something that needs to be noted in post-session documentation. It would belong in the broader medical history or intake information rather than in the session notes.
