Medoc -Model Q-Sense -Sensory Testing (QST) Device
Simple, validated, thermal testing for small peripheral nerve fibers. Q-Sense is a portable, easy-to-use and affordable quantitative sensory testing (QST) device for clinical, research and pharmacologic trial use. Q-Sense offers scientifically validated measures of warm, cool and heat-pain thermal sensory thresholds. All of these can be useful determinants in the evaluation of peripheral sensory nerve function, neuropathic pain, diabetic, chemotherapeutic, and other small-fiber neuropathies.
- Thermal stimulation for basic research needs
- Early detection of diabetic neuropathy and other small-fiber neuropathy
- Monitoring response to therapy in diabetic neuropathy and other small fiber-related neuropathies
- Validated measure accepted by the scientific community
The impairment in thermal cutaneous perception is one of the attributes for the early stage of diabetic neuropathy and may serve a predictor factor in asymptomatic patients. Since the development of diabetic neuropathy is length-dependent, QST should be performed primarily on the feet or hands.
- Sensitive and reproducible
- Pre-programmed test algorithms
- Versatile patient database
- Normative reference data
- Easy-to-interpret clinical test report
- Easy data export to excel
