Automated Point-of-Care Devices for Nerve Conduction Testing
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Portable devices have been developed to provide point-of-care nerve conductions studies. These devices have computational algorithms that are able to drive stimulus delivery, measure and analyze the response, and provide a report of study results. Automated nerve conduction could be used in various settings, including primary care, without the need for specialized training or equipment. DESCRIPTION

The existing health care systems focus on treating diseases rather than preventing them. Patients are generally not tested unless physiological symptoms are appeared. When they do get tested, the results often take several days and can be inconclusive if the disease is at an early stage. In order to facilitate the diagnostics process and make tests more readily available for patients, the conce...
متن کاملValidation of a novel point-of-care nerve conduction device for the detection of diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy.
OBJECTIVE The diagnosis of diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy using objective electrophysiological tests is hindered by limited access to the specialized laboratories and technicians that perform and interpret them. We evaluated the performance characteristics of a novel portable and automated point-of-care nerve conduction study device, which can be operated by nontechnical personnel, and co...
متن کاملMulti-site testing with a point-of-care nerve conduction device can be used in an algorithm to diagnose diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy.
OBJECTIVE We aimed to establish whether multi-nerve testing with a point-of-care nerve conduction device could be used to diagnose diabetic sensorimotor polyneuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 72 consecutive patients with diabetes underwent a full neurological examination and a concurrent evaluation for nine standard electrophysiological parameters using conventional nerve cond...
