Neuropen Kit with 10g Monofilament and Neurotip
Neuropen® is the only peripheral neuropathy screening device incorporating both pressure and sharpness tests, giving clinicians a simple, compact solution for testing large and small nerve fibres in the foot.
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes, potentially leading to loss of sensation, foot ulcerations and eventually amputation.
Treatment of these complications can be expensive yet many are avoidable, making early identification and intervention key to improving patient outcomes and reducing health costs.
Capabilities:
10g Monofilament Test – Neuropen® Monofilament accurately assess touch/pressure sensation in large nerve fibres, enabling clinicians to map areas of reduced pressure perception. The 10g monofilaments exert a specific, repeatable force on the test site. They can be replaced without needing to discard the whole device.
Calibrated Neurotip Test – Neurotips™ accurately assess reduced sensation to sharpness/pain in small nerve fibres. When used with Neuopen®, Neurotips™ ensure that a consistent force of 40g can be exerted safely onto the skin. Neurotips™ are supplied sterile for single use.
