Transkranyal Kortikal Stimulator DIGITIMER- D185mk2

Digitimer Limited
  • Transcranial stimulation with trains of electric shocks permits rapid assessment of the functional continuity of the motor pathways. The use of MultiPulse stimulation results in much larger amplitude MEPs whilst using standard anaesthetic protocols allowing easier qualitative assessment of evoked responses. This technique complements the continuous monitoring of sensory evoked potentials (SEPs) during spinal and aortic surgery. The D185 is easily interfaced with neuro-monitoring equipment, allowing you to add MEPs to your monitoring protocols without replacing your existing equipment.
  • By listening to users, we have incorporated their requests into the “Mark IIa”. This features front panel selection of output polarity, multiturn control of output stimulus and external, rear panel selection of trigger characteristics. Special circuitry has also been added to reduce the stray mains frequency pickup below perceptible levels.
  • In response to a manual or external trigger pulse, a stimulus output is produced characterised by the ‘Number of Pulses’ switch (1 to 9 pulses) and the InterStimulus Interval (ISI) switch (variable between 1.0 and 9.9 milliseconds). The output pulse is a transformer isolated square wave of 50 microsecond duration, adjustable up to 1000 volts with a rated maximum current of 1.5 amps and a rate of current rise of 0.1 amp per microsecond.
  • Although a high voltage can be produced at the output, the short pulse duration ensures that the total energy is within a safe level. An automatic trip system guards against excessive repetition rates by monitoring the integrated stimulus charge and shutting down the output if it exceeds a preset level.
  • A restricted access ‘special’ mode is also provided to allow conventional peripheral nerve stimulation and special stimulus timings.
  • Stimulus pulses can be initiated by either front panel manual push button, foot switch or by a suitable electrical trigger signal. An electrical trigger output signal is available for external synchronisation of recording equipment.
  • Digital displays show the set stimulus level (volts) and peak current (mA) achieved in the first pulse of the train. An output signal (isolated from the patient) is available for recording or monitoring of the stimulus current waveform.
