[A new nerve-stimulator "Neurostim LA" (author's transl)]

We have had the opportunity of assess a new nerve stimulator, the Neurostim LA. Its main advantage lies in the fact that no assistant to the anaesthesiologist is necessary, as the anaesthesiologist performing the nerve block can himself adjust the stimulus intensity. The instrument is simple to operate, well constructed and also has the advantage of a 500 h energy source.
