Somedic - Model SENSELab -05 - Brush - Brochure

A new solution to an old problem - a standardized brush for moving tactile stimulation. A large range of different tools has historically been used for the investigation of the various percepts that can be the result of mechanical stimulation of the human skin. Among them you can find cotton wicks, von Frey hairs, sharp needle-point objects, weighted pins, brushes etc. The current trend is to standardize these objects, so as to make investigations comparable among investigators and clinics. The SENSELab Brush no. 5 is an attempt to provide a brush with excellent characteristics for the investigation of Brush Stroke Allodynia, but also for general use where there is a need to investigate percepts to moving (light) touch to the human skin.
