Description

The Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe is a unique probe designed for spinal and peripheral nerve stimulation during lateral spinal approaches, extreme lateral spinal approaches [XLIF], and minimally invasive spinal surgeries. Insulated down to the semispherical non-tramautic tip, this robust probe aids in the identification of the genitofemoral nerve to provide safe surgical access. This versatile probe can be used for spinal and peripheral nerve identification, as well as pedicle hole and pedicle screw testing.

Warranty: Until Use or Expiration.

Longer than traditional monopolar probes, the Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe is unique in its design: 160 mm insulated shaft ending in a semispherical non-traumatic 1.6 mm tip.

Frequently asked questions

What are the primary applications for this probe?

This disposable extended monopolar stimulating probe is designed for safe and precise nerve identification during complex procedures. Its 160 mm insulated shaft and non-traumatic semispherical 1.6 mm tip make it ideal for deep access and safety assurance in:

  • Spinal Nerve Identification: Crucial for minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS), including lateral spinal approaches such as Extreme Lateral Interbody Fusion (XLIF).
  • Peripheral Nerve Procedures: Used for accurate localization of peripheral nerves, including the genitofemoral nerve.
  • Intraoperative Safety Checks: Recommended for testing pedicle holes and screws to confirm integrity and positioning during spinal instrumentation placement.
Does the probe include critical safety features?

Yes, this disposable monopolar stimulating probe is engineered with critical safety and design features for precision nerve identification, especially during deep surgical procedures:

  • Non-Traumatic Tip Design: The probe features a precise, 1.6 mm semispherical tip engineered to be non-traumatic, which minimizes potential tissue damage during delicate nerve localization.
  • Extended Insulation: The long 160 mm stainless steel shaft is fully insulated with Kynar, maintaining necessary electrical isolation for safety in deep surgical approaches.
  • Secure Connection: It utilizes a molded safety connector (DIN 42 802 standard) that includes built-in strain relief, ensuring a stable and secure connection to the monitoring system.
  • Sterile and Safe Materials: The product is supplied sterile (via Ethylene Oxide), is completely latex-free, and the primary packaging is PVC-free.
  • Enhanced Visibility: The leadwire includes a radio-opaque blue PVC protective cover.
What material is the probe made of?

The probe is made of stainless steel with Kynar insulation.

Is the Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe sterile?

Yes, the probe is supplied sterile and has been sterilized with ethylene oxide.

What is the length of the probe's lead wire?

The lead wire has a length of 2.5 meters.

Is the packaging of the Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe PVC-free?

Yes, the product has PVC-free packaging.

What is the diameter of the probe shaft?

The diameter of the probe shaft is 3.5 mm.

Does the Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe contain latex?

No, the Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe is latex-free.

Is this stimulating probe versatile for various procedures?

Yes, the Rhythmlink Disposable Extended Monopolar Stimulating Probe is designed for precise intraoperative nerve identification and versatility in critical surgical environments. Its 160 mm extended, insulated shaft accommodates deeper surgical approaches.

Primary applications include:

  • Spinal Nerve Identification: Essential during minimally invasive spinal surgeries, particularly lateral approaches like XLIF (Extreme Lateral Interbody Fusion).
  • Peripheral Nerve Identification: Used to safely locate structures such as the genitofemoral nerve.
  • Hardware Integrity Testing: Suitable for confirming the correct placement and integrity of pedicle holes and screws.

It features a non-traumatic 1.6 mm semispherical tip to ensure safe stimulation testing.

What is the benefit of the extended 160 mm shaft?

The Rhythmlink probe features an extended 160 mm insulated shaft, making it longer than traditional monopolar probes. This design provides critical benefits for complex procedures:

  • It enables access to deeper structures during surgery.
  • It is specifically designed to facilitate navigation during lateral spinal approaches (XLIF) and other minimally invasive spinal surgeries.
  • The extended length promotes safer and more precise nerve identification in areas standard probes may not reach.
