DryTouch

EMG Stimulation and Surgical Suction

DryTouch integrates monopolar stimulation with a Frazier suction instrument for brain mapping, minimally invasive thyroidectomies, and spinal surgeries.

Product Overview

DryTouch is a cross-functional surgical suction probe and EMG stimulation device. DryTouch supports surgeons to deliver a controlled, gentle suction. In addition, the Frazier design removes excess debris from confined surgical spaces and provides EMG stimulation. DryTouch also improves the surgical plan and creates an ideal real-time nerve monitoring space by blending these functions. Overall, DryTouch maintains a clear surgical field and reduces the potential current shunting of applied stimulation.

Product Features

Frazier Suction, Two Lengths

DryTouch is a suction probe with a custom Frazier handle that delivers IOM EMG stimulation. The unique probe enables maximum control of suction and continuous monopolar stimulation to support a maximal tumor resection¹.

DryTouch is a 7 French Lumen and is available in two sizes lengths, 13 cm, and 26 cm.

Enhanced Brain And Tissue Mapping

The all-in-one device can improve suction control while identifying the critical areas related to the central and peripheral nervous system. DryTouch is approved to be used beneath the blood-brain barrier, providing real-time cortical and subcortical motor mapping.

Universal Compatibility

DryTouch probes have a pre-attached lead wire with a standard DIN connector that is compatible with Nerveäna or any nerve monitoring system.

The Frazier handpiece features a tapered connector that attaches to standard suction tubing. The unique design is universal and cost-effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, DryTouch suction stimulator probes are fully compatible with any IOM EMG nerve monitoring system. The monopolar probes feature a pre-attached leadwire with a standard DIN (42802) connector for a seamless connection.
