Analgesia

Analgesia Meters

Pain management is paramount to millions of people, and the proper research is essential to creating effective solutions. As such, analgesia testing is a growing field which is becoming more important each year. For analgesic testing, labs need the best analgesia equipment, like the Plantar Test Analgesia Meter, the Electronic von Frey Anesthesiometer, the Plethysmometer Meter, and a Hot Plate Analgesia Meter. Before new pain killing pharmaceuticals are brought to market, they must undergo a host of efficacy studies involving some form of analgesiometry prior to any clinical trials.  The standard nociceptive threshold testing for preclinical trials involves mechanical, thermal, and chemical stimuli with mice and rats. WPI offers a variety of such equipment to help with analgesia testing process. For example, the plantar test analgesia meters emit light and heat sensations to gauge pain perception in test subjects. They also offer precise control over their temperature settings, making your results more accurate. Browse our premium analgesia meters here to learn more.
