I don't see it mentioned, although there is an IEC standard that covers them: IEC 60601-2-10 (1987-12) Medical electrical equipment. Part 2: Particular requirements for the safety of nerve and muscle stimulators "Specifies particular requirements for the safety of electrical stimulators of muscles and nerves in the specialized practice of physical medicine. It excludes stimulators used with implanted electrodes, brain stimulation, neurological research, cardiac pacemakers, defibrillators and other surgical procedures" It doesn't seem to be harmonized yet.
