Palpometer - pain measurement, monitoring and assesment tool.

The Sonic Palpometer - A Pain Measurement and Assessment Tool

The Sonic Palpometer is a device that measures the pressure of the examiner's finger during manual palpation.
This controlled palpation provides the examiner with objective information in form of acoustic signals (beeps), on how firmly or softly to press the tissues, thereby standardizing the pressure stimulus of conventional manual palpation.

Professiona pain measuring system

The Palpometer pain assessment technology has been patented in the US, Canada, and Japan.

Potential applications of Palpometer include: musculoskeletal tenderness measurements, tracking and monitoring response in trials, and teaching manual palpation techniques. Potential users of the device include researchers, students, and allied health professionals learning manual palpation.
