Product Overview
Owen Mumford Neuropen NT 0100
The Owen Mumford Neuropen NT 0100 is a neuropathy screening tool designed for precise and hygienic neurological examinations. It features an interchangeable 10g (white) or 15g (red) monofilament, allowing clinicians to assess sensitivity loss by applying a consistent, repeatable force to the test area. The Neuropen also includes a sterile, single-use Neurotip, minimizing cross-infection risks while providing a safe, calibrated 40g force for evaluating sharpness sensation.
Features:
- Interchangeable 10g (white) and 15g (red) monofilaments for sensitivity testing.
- Sterile, single-use Neurotip for hygienic sharpness assessment.
- Calibrated force application (10g, 15g, or 40g) for reliable results.
- Compact design with a carrying case for portability and protection.
Specifications:
- Includes: 1 Neuropen, 1 carrying case, 1 Neurotip, and 1 10g monofilament.
- Neurotip force: 40g (sharpness testing).
- Monofilament forces: 10g (white) and 15g (red).
Use Suggestion:
The Neuropen is ideal for diabetic neuropathy screening, allowing clinicians to map sensory deficits accurately. Apply the monofilament perpendicular to the skin until it bends slightly, then ask the patient to indicate sensation. For sharpness testing, use the Neurotip with controlled pressure to assess pain response. Always dispose of the Neurotip after single use.
