Neurothesiometers

NEU1 Horwell Neurothesiometer with Rechargeable Battery

The neurothesiometer is a device used for the determination of the vibration sensitivity threshold at locations at the body surface. Regular recordings of vibration perception thresholds (VPT) in a particular patient, provides quantitative results for monitoring progress of peripheral neuropathy caused by diabetes and other diseases such as leprosy.

Applications

• Monitoring progress of diabetic neuropathy and effectiveness of any treatments
• Observing changes in polyneuropathies and the effectiveness of treatments for other diseases
• Assessment of conditions related to operating heavy machinery such as "Vibration White Finger" (VWF)
  
• Medical research on vibration sensitivity related to polyneuropathies, nerve conduction, neurological disorders and diseases.
