Title:
PERIPHERAL NERVE EXAMINATION DEVICE, PERIPHERAL NERVE EXAMINATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/100209
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A peripheral nerve examination device (1) evaluates a nerve of a subject on the basis of an expression by the subject of perception of stimulation. A stimulation control unit (13) controls a plurality of stimulations of varying intensity that are imparted to the subject. A measurement unit (12) obtains a measured value of the reaction time of the subject to each of the plurality of stimulations. An output unit (14) outputs a relationship between the measured values and the intensity of the plurality of stimulations.
