Pathway Pain & Sensory Evaluation System
The Pathway Pain & Sensory Evaluation System is a computerized thermal stimulator designed for neurological and pain research. Pathway expands the functions offered by Medoc TSA-II, introducing new hardware and software capabilities to expand the quantitative investigation of human nociceptive pathways.The PATHWAY is a pain management and pain research system intended to be used for the quantitative assessment of small nerve fiber dysfunctions. It measures sensory thresholds such as cold and warm sensation and heat-induced pain.The Device includes: main unit, at least one probe/thermode and accessories.
Details
Device typeThermotester, diagnostic: A mains electricity (AC-powered) device designed to provide quantitative diagnostic evaluation of a patient's reaction to thermal stimuli, typically on the skin surface, by providing information on threshold to heat or cold perception. The device typically operates by gradually increasing the temperature to 42 - 50? Celsius. It is typically used to diagnose early diabetes mellitus, for phantom pain detection, neurological studies of thin fibre nerve systems, and also for pain threshold investigations.
