"I've used Checkpoint in well over 400 cases. Over the last 2 or 3 years, I've expanded my use of Checkpoint to any case in which nerves are at risk, including all of my thyroidectomy cases."

HEAD AND NECK APPLICATIONS
CONFIDENTLY IDENTIFY MOTOR NERVES
- Confirm whether or not a tissue structure is a motor nerve
- Confirm motor nerve response by tetanic contraction
- Identify individual motor nerve branches through soft tissue and tumor
RELIABLY LOCATE NERVES IN ALTERED ANATOMY
- Map location of motor nerves through tissue to facilitate dissection
- Localize motor nerve tissue obscured by scarring and tumor
- Safely stimulate nerves repeatedly and continuously without diminished motor response
EVALUATE NERVE AND MUSCLE FUNCTION
- Safely and reliably stimulate nerves
- Easily palpate muscle response
- Repeatedly stimulate nerve without diminished response
NERVE SAFE BIPHASIC TECHNOLOGY
All Checkpoint Stimulators use a biphasic waveform that is safe for prolonged or repeated stimulation without diminished response.
