GSA GENITOSENSORY ANALYZER ASSESSING PELVIC FLOOR SENSORY FUNCTIONS

In cooperation with leading neurologists and urologists in the USA, Europe and Israel, Medoc has developed a system and methodology for quantitative assessment of pelvic floor sensory functions. The GSA GenitoSensory Analyzer system can be also applied as a valuable, new diagnostic tool for assessment of neural dysfunction intra and peri-vaginally, including clitoral sensation. The GSA GenitoSensory Analyzer assists in determining whether FSD is caused by physiological or psychological reasons, as well as assist in therapy selection and monitoring progression and patients’ recovery. The system can also supply objective documentation as well as a basis to argue for continued coverage with insurance carriers. As thermal and autonomic fibers are small-fibers, thermal testing with the GSA GenitoSensory Analyzer can be employed as a means of inferring diagnostic information concerning autonomic response. Thermal testing may provide a sensitive measure in autonomic disorders, such as with neurogenic bladder, orthostasis and impotence (see below).
The GSA GenitoSensory Analyzer is the essential tool for evaluation of nerve impairment in patients with a complaint of Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) and other pelvic floor disorders. The GSA is designed for use in clinical, research and pharmacologic trial settings.

COMPUTER-CONTROLLED SYSTEM CAPABLE OF GENERATING AND RECORDING SENSORY THRESHOLDS

The GSA is a precise, computer-controlled system capable of generating and recording sensory thresholds to highly repeatable warm, cold, heat-induced pain and cold-induced painful stimuli (for evaluation of small-caliber A-delta and C-fibers) and vibration (for evaluation of large-caliber A-beta fibers). These psycho-physically derived thresholds deviate from normal in cases of disease or injury to the peripheral or central nervous system. The GSA is equipped with a probe for intra-vaginal and peri-vaginal thermal (Pelvic Floor Thermode) and vibratory testing.
