Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document discusses the use of CO2 laser technology for stimulating Laser Evoked Potentials (LEPs) in neurophysiology. This technology has transformed the study of pain by selectively activating nociceptors without affecting non-nociceptive afferents, which is a limitation of electrical stimuli.

Specifications and Advantages
The CO2 laser stimulator is compact, practical, and easy to use, providing quick assessments of the nociceptive system. It is widely used in clinical neurophysiology for various pain assessments. The YAP laser allows for easy stimulation of different body areas and can be used in shielded environments like MRI and MEG rooms.

Technical Features
The Neurolas system uses an articulated arm with high mechanical accuracy, allowing the CO2 laser beam to travel efficiently. It offers adjustable amplitude, duration, and energy density of the laser emission. The system is compatible with electromyographs and controlled by a microprocessor.

Clinical Applications
LEPs are useful in diagnosing various pain syndromes, including neuropathic pain, myelopathy, brain infarction, and more. The document cites numerous studies demonstrating the reliability of laser EP recording in assessing the nociceptive pathway.

Safety and Standards
The laser device is classified as Class 4 according to EN 60825-1 standards, with specific safety measures to avoid exposure to direct or diffuse radiation.

Company Profile
DEKA, a part of the El.En. Group, is a leader in laser technology for medical applications, adhering to ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 standards. The company markets its products globally, emphasizing quality and innovation.

Stimul 1 340 CO2 LASER TECHNOLOGY FOR stimulation OF LEPs (Laser Evoked Potentials) Stimul 1340 The introduction of laser stimulators in basic and clinical neurophysiology has revolutionized the approach to study pain in humans. Because large-diameter fibers have a lower electrical threshold than the small nerve fibers that convey pain sensations, electrical stimuli, even noxious, also excite large, nonnociceptive afferents, thus inhibiting nociceptive transmission or hindering nociceptive signals. Hence the need for a selective activation of nociceptors. Although several methods of heating the...

Neurolas Neurolas is a CO2 laser system used in neurophysiology for studying evoked potentials. The stimulus generated by Neurolas excites the thermal-mechanical nociceptors provoking cerebral potentials and in this way allowing to detect the dysfunctions in the behaviour of the afferent fibres. Neurolas offers the chance to adjust the amplitude and/or the duration of the stimulus as well as varying the energy density of the laser emission in an ongoing manner by acting on the stimulation area. Other advantages of this laser include the high repeatability of the impulses, the totally negligible...
