AN ENGINEERING AND CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING PROGRAM IS DESCRIBED TO DEVELOP A DEVICE FOR TAKING AUTOMATED DIGITAL NERVE LATENCY MEASUREMENTS AND DISPLAYING THE RESULTS ON A L.E.D. DISPLAY READ-OUT. THE DEVICE IS INTENDED FOR MEDICAL TESTING OF MOTOR NERVE CONDUCTION VELOCITY AND NERVE LATENCIES, A DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC TEST USED FOR A LARGE NUMBER OF MEDICAL AND SURGICAL DISORDERS. THIS IS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED UTILIZING STATE-OF-THE-ART ELECTRONIC DESIGN TECHNIQUES TO DEVELOP AN INSTRUMENT THAT WILL MEASURE ACCURATE AND REPRODUCIBLE NERVE LATENCIES USING NON-INVASIVE STIMULATION AND RECORDING TECHNIQUES. THE DEVICE WILL BE EASILY PORTABLE, WILL BE OPERABLE BY MEDICAL PERSONNEL WITHOUT SPECIALIZED TRAINING AND WILL BE PRICED IN THE $1,000.00 RANGE.
