sensitivity and convenience
in nerve monitoring |
You
asked…we answered. The NIM-Response®
2.0
As
medical technology evolves, so does our
NIM™ nerve integrity monitor. And when
physicians around the world tell us what
they need, we listen. Every NIM system
we develop combines your experience with
ours, helping us make better nerve
monitors for you and your patients.
The NIM-Response
2.0 merges advanced electronics with
powerful, intuitive software. For both
the novice and advanced user, it offers
an array of new features and
enhancements to help improve patient
safety and physician convenience through
nerve monitoring.
Key features of
the new NIM-Response 2.0
- User-friendly color touchscreen
and menus
- Increased sensitivity with
reduced interference
- Printable log of patient's EMG
activity
User-friendly color touchscreen and
menus

 |
Easy-to-use color
touchscreen with intuitive
graphics and icons to guide
you. Versatile new menus
offer maximum control for
advanced users and standard
settings for new users.
Improved Quick Setup lets
you save and load your
preferred settings faster
and easier than before.
New touchscreen stylus
allows you to access NIM
functions easily from the
sterile field.
|
Increased
sensitivity with reduced interference
The NIM-Response 2.0 is more
sensitive to lower-level EMG activity
because it has an improved
signal-to-noise ratio.
• Lets you hear and identify smaller
EMG signals to help you minimize nerve
manipulation during surgery
System-wide improvements give
the NIM-Response 2.0 cleaner EMG
signals
and reduced susceptibility to
interference.
• Less noise and fewer false
positives
The NIM-Response 2.0 features
improved emissions so that it has
minimal impact on ABR monitoring and
complies with Class B emission
standards.
• Minimal impact on ABR monitoring
|
Because of a lower baseline,
the NIM-Response 2.0 can
detect events of lower
amplitude. |

NIM
evolution
Each version of our
innovative NIM™ system
teaches us more about how to
make nerve monitoring better
for you and your patients. |
 |
NIM-2®
Our original model, the
NIM-2
system allowed surgeon
control of nerve monitoring
and muting of electrocautery
noise. |
NIM-2®XL
The NIM-2XL built upon our
experience with the NIM-2,
offering new features such
as current delivered tone
and displaying both channels
at the same time. |
 |
|
 |
NIM-Response®
System
Continuing our drive toward
innovation, the NIM-Response
system introduced many new
features, such as
touchscreen controls,
four-channel monitoring and
Quick Setup. |
