The Discriminator - 1 pc. is an essential tool for health and rehabilitation professionals, designed to assess patients' tactile sensitivity. Made of high-quality ABS plastic, this compass features a scale printed on a sturdy aluminum plate, ensuring precision and durability over time.

What is Two-Point Discrimination?

Two-point discrimination is a fundamental technique used in neurology to test the patient's ability to perceive two distinct stimuli on the skin. This test is crucial for assessing the innervation of skin areas and identifying any tactile agnosias.

Features of the Discriminator

• Material: Durable and lightweight ABS plastic.


• Printed Scale: Facilitates reading and interpreting results.


• Ergonomic Design: Easy to handle during clinical assessments.

Using the Discriminator

The two-point discrimination test should be performed in a controlled environment, preferably with the patient keeping their eyes closed to ensure an objective assessment of sensations. Here’s how to proceed:

1. Position the patient in a comfortable position.


2. Use the pointed ends of the discriminator to gently touch the skin in different areas.


3. Ask the patient to indicate whether they perceive one or two distinct points.


4. Record the responses to analyze the patient's tactile sensitivity.

Why Choose the Discriminator?

This tool is widely used by physiotherapists, neurologists, and health professionals for its reliability and ease of use. Two-point discrimination is a standardized technique that provides valuable information about the patient's neurological functionality.

Benefits of Using the Discriminator

• Early identification of neurological issues.


• Assessment of the progression of neurological conditions.


• Facilitates the planning of targeted therapeutic interventions.

Investing in the Discriminator - 1 pc. means equipping yourself with a fundamental tool to improve the quality of clinical assessments and ensure high-level healthcare.
