Peripheral Nerve Block Stimulator Stimuplex® Dig RC with Remote Control

The Stimuplex Dig RC Peripheral Nerve Stimulator with Remote Control: an industry standard

The Stimuplex Dig RC peripheral nerve stimulator from B. Braun Medical. It has set the pace for peripheral nerve stimulator functionality for over 10 years.

NEW! Remote Control Unit
Now available, a unique, under-the-glove hand held remote current output control device for your Stimuplex Dig. It allows the anesthesia provider operating solo to raise and lower current output from the Stimuplex stimulator without breaking sterile technique.

The Remote Control is now available for order with any new Stimuplex Dig RC that you purchase. All existing Stimuplex Dig RC (STIM300 #333542) units already have a 3-prong connector for the remote control. Existing STIM300 owners can purchase the remote control unit as an add-on device. Owners of older STIM200, STIM100, and Stimuplex-S units will have to purchase a new unit to take advantage of the Remote Control capabilities. Under-the-glove hand held remote current output control. Using your non-dominant hand, you can palpate while using 1 or 2 other fingers to raise and lower current output.

What makes the Stimuplex Dig RC unique?

It has always been a dedicated peripheral nerve stimulator, built specifically to enhance your technique and increase success in peripheral nerve blockade of the upper and lower extremities. And, the Stimuplex Dig from B. Braun has always been part of a system approach to peripheral nerve blocks when used with the insulated A Series needles.

Simply put: Stimuplex Dig RC is more ergonomically efficient and consistent than the practice of using non-insulated needles, connected by bulky alligator clip leads to a high current range nerve stimulator with limited settings and functionality for nerve location.

The Stimuplex Dig RC has always offered advanced features such as:

Special circuitry generates a constant stimulating current that automatically compensates for variable tissue resistance encountered

Low current range — 0 - 5.0 mA — to minimize potential for nerve trauma

Short stimulus pulse duration: 0.1ms to trigger motor nerve response, not sensory

1Hz and 2Hz impulse frequency

Low battery red LED indicator

Audio and LED alerts to indicate any disconnects and open or closed circuit connections

New integrated electrode cable for the latest Stimuplex Dig RC

A Series insulated needles for use with Stimuplex feature fully insulated shafts and atraumatic short bevels

The integrated electrode cable (pictured above left) in the newest Stimuplex Dig RC offers greater stability and better protection against damage. Its design also helps to avoid inadvertant mix-ups with other cables, or loss of the cable.

To protect your investment in the Stimuplex Dig, B. Braun now offers the Stimu-PLUS Annual Maintenance Program. For more details, click here>>.

The Stimuplex system is completed by using insulated, atraumatic short bevel needles from B. Braun (pictured above right). The Stimuplex-DIG peripheral nerve stimulator: an industry standard These needles feature a fully insulated shaft with integrated conducting lead and pre-attached extension tubing. They come in a variety of lengths and gauge sizes to suit your procedures of the upper and lower extremities.

The special short bevel of the needles glides smoothly through all tissue layers and easily identifies the perivascular space by a distinct "click". The pre-attached extension tubing allows for aspiration and injection while maintaining an "immobile needle" technique.
