Neuropen Neurotips Screening Device - Replaceable Monofilaments

Neuropen - Dual-Function Screening Device

The Neuropen is an effective screening aid, combining two calibrated tests enabling clinicians to identify patients most at risk of foot ulceration (in conjunction with symptomatic and clinical assessments).

The Neuropen allows you to replace your 10g monofilament without discarding the whole device.

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.

Monofilaments

10g Monofilament test - assesses touch/ pressure sensation in large nerve fibres.

A 10g pressure test using Neuropen Monofilaments to assess any reduction in sensation in the tested area.

The 10g monofilament test enables the clinician to map areas of reduced pressure perception by exerting a specific repeatable force on test site. The 10g monofilaments are replaceable providing the user with a reliable and reproducible test.

Neurotips Sterile, single use neurological examination pins

A 40g sharpness test using Neurotips single use neurological examination pins, to assess reduced sensation to sharpness/pain in small nerve fibers.

Neurotips are sterile, single use neurological examination pins, which eliminate the risk of infection. They are semi-sharp, reducing the risk of skin puncture, particularly on fragile skin.

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.
