NMT EasyFit Sensor and Cable

The NMT Sensor provides quantitative, automated measurements of neuromuscular block by delivering non-invasive electrical stimuli to the ulnar nerve and recording electromyography (EMG) responses from the adductor pollicis muscle. Surface hydrogel electrodes with adhesive foam ensure secure placement for continuous monitoring. The single-use sensor connects to a reusable NMT Cable and is designed for use with GE HealthCare NMT measurement devices (NMT Module and bedside monitors).
