Frequently asked questions
Does it have reliable safety monitoring?
Yes, the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 is engineered with advanced safety monitoring systems essential for secure and efficient peripheral nerve stimulation.
Key features designed to enhance patient safety and operational stability include:
- Comprehensive Alarms: The device provides immediate feedback through acoustic signals and dedicated alarm screens for operational deviations. Specific alerts include:
- Disconnect alarms (connection loss).
- Current threshold alarms (current level deviations).
- Continuous Resistance Monitoring: It actively monitors load impedance (kOhm), which is permanently displayed, helping clinicians confirm circuit integrity and stability.
- SENSe Technology: This innovative technology is designed to promote safer, quicker nerve localization and sustained motor response.
- Latex-Free Construction: Components do not contain natural rubber, minimizing potential allergy risks.
- Permanent Parameter Display: Critical data (amplitude, duration, frequency, and impedance) are constantly visible on the high-contrast LCD screen, allowing for continuous, effortless monitoring.
Does the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 contain latex?
No, the components of the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 do not contain natural rubber latex.
How does the stimulator efficiently locate nerves?
The B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 efficiently locates nerves using its proprietary SENSe technology. This innovative system is engineered for safe, easy, and highly efficient nerve stimulation, and is rated best overall in clinical evaluation.
The key benefits of SENSe technology for nerve location are:
- Faster Identification: Helps users find the nerve sooner.
- Sustained Motor Response: Ensures the motor response is maintained longer during continuous block procedures.
How does the SENSe technology improve stimulation?
The innovative SENSe technology is a proprietary feature of the Stimuplex HNS 12, designed to optimize peripheral nerve block procedures. It has been rated best overall in clinical evaluation for performance.
This technology significantly improves stimulation efficiency and safety by:
- Faster Nerve Location: Helping users find the target nerve sooner.
- Sustained Response: Ensuring the motor response is maintained for a longer duration, especially critical for continuous nerve blocks.
- Overall Efficiency: Making the entire nerve stimulation process safer, easier, and more efficient.
Does the Stimuplex HNS 12 offer adjustable pulse duration?
Yes, the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 features adjustable pulse duration, which enhances precision during peripheral nerve block procedures. This capability allows clinicians to precisely target and stimulate specific motor or sensory nerve components.
The device offers three distinct pulse duration settings:
- 0.1 Ms
- 0.3 Ms
- 1.0 Ms
What important parameters are permanently displayed?
The B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 features an enlarged, high-contrast, full-graphic LCD display designed for excellent visibility during procedures. This display continuously monitors critical data essential for safe and efficient nerve block administration.
The following key operational parameters are permanently displayed:
- Stimulus Amplitude (in mA), presented in large digits.
- Stimulus Duration (in ms).
- Stimulus Frequency (in Hz).
- Load Impedance (in kOhm).
Additionally, the screen can display the Charge Delivered (in nC) if that function is activated by the user.
Is a medical license required to purchase the Stimuplex HNS 12?
Yes, a valid medical license is required for the purchase of the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 Nerve Stimulator.
Note that there are specific purchase restrictions:
- Medical License Only: Veterinary licenses are not accepted.
- Shipping Restriction: The device cannot be shipped to residential addresses.
Does the Stimuplex HNS 12 feature an ergonomic design?
Yes, the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 12 features an advanced ergonomic shape specifically designed for easy and comfortable handling during peripheral nerve block procedures. It maximizes usability through:
- Easy Handling: The shape is engineered for comfortable and stable handheld use, reducing strain during lengthy procedures.
- Precise Control: Current adjustment is managed via a digital ratchet dial for precise, tactile adjustment of the current output.
- High Visibility: It features an enlarged, full-graphic LCD display with high contrast and a wide viewing angle, ensuring critical parameters are always easily readable.
Are there any recommended accessories for the device?
Yes, for optimal use, it’s recommended to purchase the B. Braun Stimuplex HNS 11/12 Replacement Cable (HEC) (#333576) and B. Braun Stimuplex D Insulated Needles with Extension Sets.
