Timely Neuropathy Testing
Improved hand-held device for evaluating cutaneous sensory detection:
·
incorporates a simple curve that helps prevent a monofilament
from being laid down upon itself, from being sheared off by another device’s
handle, or being damaged when put in a case.
·
enables the monofilaments to be
disposable, or replaceable, and
easily interchanged by an examiner without replacing an entire set, or
disassembling a device.
·
embodies in the preferred version a disk attachment
pre-embedded with a monofilament of a given diameter size, and length, or
more than one monofilament for 2 or more
point discrimination. · enables clear vision and improved accuracy by an optional light source that transmits cool light through the clear light-conducting handle with curve, illuminating the monofilament test stimulus, and skin area of the subject tested.
Monofilament force of application specifications are based on the Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament original style design; and Bell-Krotoski levels of sensibility detection, normative, and force of application/stimulus repeatability measurement research (reference list available on website) |
