Medstorm PainSensor
Innoventiv Respiratory Care AG · source
The MedStorm Pain Sensor is a wearable device that measures real-time pain and nociceptive stimuli via changes in skin conductance, reflecting skin sympathetic nerve activity (acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors).
Technical characteristics
Wireless sensor measuring sympathetic nervous system activity via skin conductance technology. Ultra-fast response time of 1-2 seconds. Bluetooth connectivity to monitors (Philips, Masimo), tablets or electronic medical records.
Target patient
All ages from 23 weeks of amenorrhea, including premature babies, sedated and non-sedated patients under anaesthesia, intensive care patients and post-operative recovery patients.
Clinical applications
Accurate monitoring of intraoperative pain, in intensive care, post-operative recovery and neonatal care. Rapid detection of pain indicators and drug response.
Specific features
- Three adhesive electrodes (palm or sole of the foot)
- Insensitive to haemodynamic, respiratory and thermal variations (22-42°C)
- Tolerates drugs (beta-blockers, epinephrine, curare)
Patient benefits
- Optimal analgesia minimising opioid-related complications
- Reduction in the effects of over-sedation or under-sedation
- Reduction in iatrogenic complications
Clinician benefits
- Individualised and objective titration of analgesia
- Reduction in opioid-related complications
- Reduction in hospital costs and length of stay
- Improved patient safety
- Based on 80+ peer-reviewed clinical studies
