Description
The Owen Mumford Neurotips are the single use 40g examination pins that run the sharpness half of the Neuropen screening, testing small nerve fiber sensitivity to sharpness and pain in the diabetic foot. Single use pins keep every test hygienic and every point consistent, with 100 pins per box for program scale screening.
- 40g Sharpness Test – The pins deliver the sharpness stimulus used to assess small fiber function alongside the 10g pressure test.
- Single Use Hygiene – A fresh sterile point for every patient removes cross-contamination risk from the screening.
- 100 per Box – Program quantities match the throughput of diabetic foot clinics and screening events.
About This Neurotips Examination Pins
Sharpness testing examines the small fibers that pressure testing misses, which is why the Neuropen system pairs the two. Neurotips give that test a standardized, disposable point, so the stimulus is the same for every patient and every site. Reduced sensitivity to the pin flags areas where small fiber function has declined.
Single use design also simplifies infection control, because nothing is reprocessed between patients. The pins work with the Neuropen device as its sharpness consumable. Boxes of 100 keep pace with the monofilament side of the same screening program.
Features and Benefits
Test Quality
- Standardized Stimulus – A consistent 40g pin makes sharpness findings comparable across patients and visits.
- Small Fiber Coverage – Sharpness testing covers the fiber population the pressure test cannot assess.
Clinic Practicality
- Disposable Format – Single use pins remove reprocessing from the screening workflow.
- System Consumable – Neurotips are the sharpness consumable designed for the Neuropen device.

Why Choose This Neurotips
Sharpness results only mean something when the stimulus is identical every time, and reusable pins cannot promise that. A standardized single use pin makes the small fiber half of the screening as disciplined as the pressure half.
- Comparable Findings – Identical pins keep sharpness thresholds meaningful across a whole screening program.
- Cleaner Clinics – Single use pins remove a reprocessing step and its infection risk from every list.
- Neuropen Matched – The pins are the designed sharpness consumable for the Neuropen, a differentiator over generic neurological pins.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do Neurotips test?
They test sensitivity to sharpness or pain, which reflects small nerve fiber function. The Neuropen pairs this with the 10g monofilament pressure test.
Are the pins reusable?
No, Neurotips are single use examination pins. A fresh pin is used for each patient.
Which device uses them?
They are the sharpness consumable for the Neuropen screening device. The device holds the pin during the test.
How many pins are in a box?
Each box contains 100 pins. That matches program scale diabetic foot screening.
What does a reduced response mean?
Reduced sharpness sensitivity at a site suggests small fiber decline and flags the area for clinical follow up. Screening results support the wider foot assessment.
How are they stored?
Store the box at room temperature with the screening program supplies. Use a new pin for every patient encounter.
