Measuring devices for the quantitative assessment of thermal and pain thresholds are either simple and only suited for inexact tests or accurate and objective but expensive. The aim was there for to develop a cost effective device to enable a short and practical test of neurosensibility under clinical conditions. The result of this development is a new thermosensibility-measuring device (TSM) consisting of the measuring unit itself and a thermal probe. The data are registered and analysed through direct data transfer to a connected PC. Investigations carried out with this device revealed the construction to be efficient and easy to handle under clinical conditions. The TSM provides the examiner with the opportunity to monitor the neurosensory function of peripheral nerves in a reproducible way.
用于定量评估热阈值和疼痛阈值的测量设备要么简单但仅适用于不精确测试,要么精确客观但价格昂贵。因此,目标是开发一种经济高效的设备,以便在临床条件下进行简短而实用的神经敏感性测试。这一开发成果是一种新型热敏感性测量设备(TSM),它由测量单元本身和一个热探头组成。数据通过直接数据传输到连接的个人电脑进行记录和分析。使用该设备进行的调查表明,其构造在临床条件下高效且易于操作。TSM为检查者提供了以可重复的方式监测周围神经神经感觉功能的机会。
