Neurotips are sterile,
single use neurological examination pins, which eliminate the risk
of infection. They are semi-sharp, to reduce the risk of skin
puncture particularly on fragile skin.
Calibrated Neurotip test - assesses
reduced sensation to sharpness/ pain in small nerve fibres.
Using a Neurotip within a Neuropen ensures
that a quantifiable force of 40g can be exerted safely onto the skin,
providing a standardised test to identify patients with a decreased sensation
to sharpness.
This provides the clinician with a
safer tool for testing pain sensation, as the chance of piercing the
skin with this standardised force in minimal.
