Frequently asked questions
What comprehensive diagnostic studies are included?
The Cadwell Sierra Wave EMG system provides a comprehensive suite of neurophysiological testing protocols. This robust base package is designed for detailed electrodiagnostic testing, including:
- Electromyography (EMG): Supports free run and capture mode, programmable muscle scoring, and unlimited buffer storage.
- Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV): Includes motor, sensory, mixed, and inching studies.
- Reflex Testing: Covers F Wave, H-Reflex, Repetitive Nerve Stimulation (RNS), and Blink Reflex.
- Evoked Potentials (EPs): Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEP) for upper, lower, and dermatomes.
- Autonomic Studies: Features Sympathetic Skin Response (SSR) and RR Interval (heart rate variability).
Additionally, the system features workflow enhancers like the Programmable StimTroller, AnatomyVIEW, and Auto Findings Composer for automatic comparison to established norms. Optional advanced studies (like Single Fiber EMG or Auditory/Visual EPs) are available if the 4-channel amplifier configuration is selected.
Does the StimTroller improve testing efficiency?
Yes, the system is designed for enhanced operational efficiency using the unique, programmable Sierra Wave StimTroller handheld remote.
This StimTroller reduces overall testing time by placing frequently used functions directly onto the remote controller, allowing medical professionals to streamline their workflow and access controls quickly.
Which Dell laptop is included with the system?
The system comes with a Certified Refurbished Dell E5540 laptop that is pre-installed with the Windows 11 operating system and the Version 11 Cadwell Sierra Wave software.
This high-performance unit provides the necessary power for comprehensive testing protocols, featuring:
- Processor: i5
- RAM: 8 GB
- Hard Drive: 500 GB
Are flexible channel configurations available?
Yes, the Cadwell Sierra Wave EMG system is offered in two primary configurations to suit various clinical and testing needs:
- 2 Channel Amplifier: This standard option is suitable for comprehensive EMG and NCV studies.
- 4 Channel Amplifier (with Evoked Potential Board): This configuration includes the Evoked Potential Board, which is essential for conducting advanced Evoked Potential (EP) studies such as Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEP), Auditory EPs, and Visual EPs.
Is all essential system hardware included?
Yes, this Certified Refurbished Cadwell Sierra Wave system includes all core components necessary for immediate professional neurophysiological diagnostics.
The standard package ensures you receive a complete testing station:
- Computing Platform: A Dell laptop (i5, 8 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD) pre-loaded with Windows 11 and Version 11 Cadwell Sierra Wave software.
- Control Unit: The Sierra II Base Unit Controller/E-STIM.
- Efficiency Tool: The unique Sierra Wave Programmable StimTroller, designed to reduce testing time by providing remote access to common functions.
