PAIN METER
MONITORING TISSUE TENDERNESS IN REAL-TIME
WHAT IS THE PAIN METER?
The Pain Meter is a simple handheld, squeezable device that reads the patient’s tenderness to palpation through a metered 0-100 point scale — communicating to doctors in real-time. This helps both the practitioner and the patient to discern a normal response, an exaggerated response (hyperalgesia) and/or an abnormal response (allodynia)—placing appropriate context to the clinical encounter.
Pain Meter – It’s Time To Start Listening
$349.00
The Pain Meter is a patient-centred handheld device to measure a patient’s sensory experience during a neuromusculoskeletal evaluation. It is voluntarily squeezed by the patient while the doctor/therapist applies pressure to specific anatomical regions in question. The high-resolution compression sensitive bulb helps communicate degrees of tissue sensitivity to the doctor/therapist to allow real-time visualization of the patient’s perspective during an assessment and/or therapy intervention.
The Pain Meter works best with those patients that are new or present with a new chief complaint. It also works well for those that may apprehensions or nervousness about the clinical encounter.
