All of our monofilament material is color-coded for diameter and
threshold level. Color-coding of the monofilament for the 6 eliminates
one source of error in the very small diameter hairs being placed in
the wrong handle during their manufacture, and makes it easier to
see the monofilament application on the skin.  Examiners can recognize 
a correctly calibrated or wrongly marked monofilament by its color.

The Monofilaments can be used for:

bullet Screening:  Marking the Monofilament number or color on
drawing of hands, feet, or other body part where tested makes
a permanent record.
 
bullet Mapping:   Coloring in the area for monofilament level  recognized on a drawing of the hands and feet or other body part, produces a sensory map that is meaningful to the patients, their families, health care workers, physicians, and others in health care delivery, and records areas vulnerable to injury, blisters, and amputations from infections.
 
bullet Monitoring:  Serial screens or maps can subsequently compared in repeat testing, and directly compared with treatment.  Changes in the upgrading or downgrading of status can be identified and compared along side of changes in treatment.

The Clear Vision Reveals™  splinting material can be draped for fabrication of thermoplastic splints for any patient but is particularly well suited for those with arthritis or sensory diminution or loss because the material is CLEAR as glass when heated. It becomes progressively opaque when cooling allowing recognition of the degree of cooling and handling of the material for cutting or molding.

     

The thermoplastic's clear state while molding:

bullet helps the splint fabricated conform precisely to
the part being splinted, particularly small joints of the fingers and hand.
 
bullet allows recognition and elimination of pressure points under the splint material dangerous to tissue (areas that are fragile or have lost of protection sensation.)
 
bulletallows for the material to be molded to minimize splint size and maximize splint protection where needed.
 
bullet allows joint creases of fingers, and other body parts to be seen and adjusted for safe operation of fingers and parts left free.
 
bullet allows seeing and adjustment for areas of blisters or wounds needing extra relief or protection. 
 
bulletis particularly helpful when making a protective plate over areas of neuroma for shock absorption.
 
bulletis particularly helpful when fabricating a splint around pins or buttons used in tendon transfers and reconstructive surgery.
