The C2 NerveMonitor offers effective intraoperative neuromonitoring for thyroid surgery. It allows direct neurostimulation with hand guided probes, making it a useful aid, for the localisation of the vocal cord nerve, the recurrent laryngeal nerve >>, and for its functioning testing. Specifically developed for surgical removal of the thyroid, the two independently working stimulators of the C2 NerveMonitor also provide continuous neuromonitoring with the delta electrode >>.
The innovative ALM® technology >> for Advanced Laryngeal Monitoring in thyroid surgery offers an intelligent complete solution for precise and reliable recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring.
The collaborative effects of the ALM® Tube, the C2 NerveMonitor and the C2 Channel Select Software perform ideally together to create a perfected and seamless monitoring method. Through the intuitive user navigation of the C2 NerveMonitor and the easy placement of the ALM® Tube, the surgeon benefits from efficient monitoring during the surgical procedure. Subsequently, the C2 Channel Select Software, a specially developed C2 software module for thyroid surgery, automatically selects the strongest signal.
Neuromonitoring as the standard of care
Neuromonitoring is explicitly recommended for redo-operation in thyroid surgery by the German Society for General and Visceral Surgery – German Association of Endocrine Surgeons.* Therefore, documenting the monitoring process and implementing it as rapidly and intuitively as possible are of critical importance in thyroid surgery. The C2 NerveMonitor offers a barcode scanner to quickly read patient data, effortless integration of data into the patient management system, and many other possibilities for straightforward and fast reporting.
