Neuropen® Monofilaments are replaceable monofilaments for use in the Neuropen®, which exert a force of 10 g onto the skin to assess protective touch/pressure sensation in large nerve fibers.
Peripheral neuropathy cannot be excluded without regular foot screening in conjunction with symptomatic and clinical assessments. Neuropen® is an effective aid to this screening program, meeting and exceeding current practices by being the first dual purpose, pocket-size device designed to provide a safe and reliable test.
Dual Purpose Neuropen Features:
Neurotip test for assessing reduced sensation to sharpness/ pain in small nerve fibers. The calibrated spring mechanism exerts a force of 40 g to help assess patients.
Monofilament test for assessing protective touch/pressure sensation in large nerve fibers.
