Abstract
The usual assessment of sensitivity by hand is biased by many subjective criteria both from the investigator and the investigated. They can be largely excluded with a rapid and simple method by estimation of the lowest threshold of irritability and pain using electric high-frequency current. The extent of the deranged sensitivity can be expressed numerically in any skin area. As a result of the reproducibility such an assessment of sensibility is useful for clinical and diagnostic purposes.
