Product Description
This Baseline Folding Monofilament is an individual 5.07 / 10 gram testing instrument used for screening peripheral nerve impairment and diabetic foot sensation. The monofilament is placed against the skin, typically on the feet, and the point at which it buckles is used to assess whether sensation is present. Because the patient should not administer the test, it is intended to be used by a health professional or another individual assisting with the exam. The reusable design makes it a practical option for repeated evaluations, and it can be cleaned with warm, soapy water after use.
The higher the monofilament value, the stiffer the filament and the greater the force required to bend it. Baseline folding monofilaments are available in multiple force levels, and this 10 gram version is commonly used as part of routine sensory assessment. It is suitable for use in medical, therapy, and rehabilitation settings where monitoring changes in neurological status is important.
