The Checkpoint Guardian next-generation stimulator offers enhanced features for information delivery, including a visual display of amplitude and pulse duration output. Like all Checkpoint stimulators, Guardian may be used safely for sustained or repeated nerve stimulation without diminished response.
Determine stimulation threshold for motor response
Test for changes in nerve function throughout the procedure
Stimulate muscle to evaluate excursion in tendon and free muscle transfers
Reliably locate nerves in altered anatomy or anytime nerves are at risk
Map location of nerve through tissue
Localize nerve tissue obscured by scarring, tumor or bone

The CHECKPOINT GUARDIAN® Nerve Stimulator is a single-use, sterile device intended to provide electrical stimulation of exposed motor nerves or muscle tissue to locate and identify nerves and to test nerve and muscle excitability. Do not use this Stimulator when paralyzing anesthetic agents are in effect, as an absent or inconsistent response to stimulation may result in inaccurate assessment of nerve and muscle function. For a complete list of warnings and precautions regarding the use of the Stimulator, please consult the Instructions for Use.
