The handheld Unidirectional ultrasound vascular Doppler is an instrument that detects blood flow using the principles of the Doppler effect. It can be a very useful tool in assessing how good the blood flow is to the foot or hand. It is a painless test and very similar to taking blood pressure using a stethoscope. It is particularly useful for the assessment of arterial disease but can also be used for venous problems. These vascular Doppler are used for identifying the arterial and venous flow patency. Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) is a simple procedure to detect obstruction in the blood flow. The LifeDop 150R features a non-display, handheld Doppler with superior sound quality, extended battery life, enhanced probe sensitivity, interchangeable probes, and a one-year full warranty. It includes a battery recharging system, so you don’t have to worry about overcharging or draining of the batteries. Features: • Interchangeable Doppler Probes • Unidirectional Doppler • 8MHz Vascular Probe is Standard • Continuous Wave Doppler • 4, 5 and 8 MHz Vascular probes • Rechargeable battery operation • Charger supplied free

The VD8M features a handheld Doppler with superior sound quality, extended battery life, enhanced probe sensitivity, interchangeable probes, and a one-year full warranty. It includes a battery recharging system so you don’t have to worry about changing the battery often. Features: • Interchangeable Doppler Probes • Unidirectional Doppler • 8MHz Vascular Probe is Standard • Continuous Wave Doppler • Dry-cell or Rechargeable battery operation • Charger supplied free

One of the frequent causes of non-traumatic lower-limb amputation is Diabetes and is usually preceded by foot ulcer and infection. The reason of this ulceration is commonly a loss of protective sensation due to peripheral neuropathy, for which there is no prevention strategy. Current research promotes early detection of neuropathy so that secondary prevention measures, such as intensive foot-care education and treatment, can be used for individuals. In an effort to standardize and simplify the detection of insensate foot, the 5.07/10-gm Monofilament is recommended by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization as a device that can be used by health professionals at every level of care. A standardised filament is pressed against part of the foot. When the filament bends, its tip is exerting a pressure of 10 grams (therefore this monofilament is often referred to as the 10 gram monofilament). If the patient cannot feel the monofilament at certain specified sites on the foot, he/she has lost enough sensation to be at risk of developing a neuropathic ulcer.

Transcutaneous oxygen monitoring (TCOM / tcpO2) is a well-documented technique reflecting the nutritive flow in the capillaries. Today, TCOM / tcpO2 is commonly used in clinical applications such as wound-healing assessment, hyperbaric medicine, amputation-level determinations and more. Precise8001 offers the possibility to monitor the transcutaneous oxygen at the sites of interest. Features: • Fluorescence photo optical system and hence no membrane technology • No membrane and hence minimal operating cost • No pre-heating of sensor and self-automatic calibration while testing • Measurement time is less than 10 min • Automatic marking of end value • 10.1-inch large LCD touch screen Display • Displays the measurement process graphically and numerically • Integrated patient and measurement database • Oxygen partial pressure range of 0 to 2000 mmHg • Sensor temperature range 37 to 44 degree Celsius • Long enough 250cm(2.5meter) sensor cable for ease of placement • USB connection for Computer connection - Optional • Connects external memory for data transfer in txt format • Software for data transfer to computer - Optional • Standalone operation and operate with the computer if software purchased • Measurement is independent of skin pH and salt content • Weighs less than 3 kgs • Built-in rechargeable battery supports minimum 3 hours of operation • Unit works between 100Volts and 230Volts AC power supply • Truly portable

This basic neuropathy Assessment kit consists of one Tiptherm, one VibraTip and 25 Nos. 10gm Monofilaments to check the loss of temperature, vibration and touch sensitivity. Early diagnosis of distal symmetric polyneuropathy by testing temperature sensitivity, can prevent complications of diabetic foot. Precious time is gained if examinations are geared towards detecting this symptom. Regular testing of temperature sensitivity should therefore be a compulsory part of basic diabetes treatment. Failure to perceive variances in temperature in the extremities is the most decisive early symptom of distal symmetric polyneuropathy, a typical ailment accompanying diabetes mellitus (Ziegler 1988). TIP THERM® is ideal for testing temperature sensitivity. It is not dependent on external power sources, is practically indestructible, easy to handle and small and light enough to fit in any jacket or overall pocket. VibraTipTM: a wipe-clean, pocket-sized and disposable device for testing vibration sense. The advantages include ease and speed of the test with little required training, less user variability compared with the calibrated tuning-fork test, small size, and easy cleaning.
