An innovative device

SUDOSCAN is a test that provides an accurate evaluation of sweat function. The test focuses on small nerve fibers within the peripheral nervous system innervating the sweat glands.

The device consists of a computer and 4 electrodes on which patients place their hands and bare feet. In less than 3 minutes, SUDOSCAN offers a stimulation of the sweat glands that assess small nerve fibers (C fibers).

Simple results obtained in 3 minutes

The results are displayed automatically.
If the score is high, this indicates no sign of sudomotor dysfunction and no autonomic neuropathy. If the score is low, this indicates a sudomotor dysfunction and a neuropathy.

Sudoscan Technology

BY IMPETO MEDICAL

SUDOSCAN tests sweat gland function by applying a small direct current to both hand and foot sensor plates. At a low voltage, the stratum corneum acts as a capacitor, leaving the sweat ducts as the only channel for the transmission of Cl- ions.
SUDOSCAN provides a quantitative measure of chloride conductance (measured in microsiemens) and its results serve as a biomarker to assess sweat gland function in relation to sweat gland innervation.

The process

  • The patient is asked to put his hands and feet on large electrodes
  • A small electric tension is applied to the surface to stimulate the sweat glands
  • The results of the response to this stimulation are expressed as :
    1. Electrochemical Skin Conductance for SUDOSCAN, indicating the presence and severity of the small fiber peripheral autonomic neuropathies;
    2. Percentage of risk for EZSCAN indicating a risk to develop diabetes.

About Impeto Medical

Our Mission

  • Impeto Medical is a medical device company created in June 2005 part of WITHINGS company. Its corporate headquarters are located close to Paris, France. The company is also present in San Diego, CA, USA and in Beijing, China.
  • Our goal is to provide the medical community with screening tests to face epidemically spreading metabolic disorders and their complications. 
  • By providing less invasive, faster and less costly procedures, we enable physicians to screen larger patient populations and to detect diseases complications earlier. 
  • We build value for our investors through constant innovation based on clinical research as well as focus on priority medical issues.

Patents

The SUDOCAN® device is covered by the following patents:

  • “Electrophysiological analysis system and method” (US Patent No. US 8965497B2, European Patent No. EP 1898783B1),
  • “Electrophysiological analysis system” (US Patent No. US 8655443B2, European Patent No. EP 2124736B1),

CERTIFICATION SYSTEM 

ISO 13485:2016

Promotional Communication. The medical devices SUDOSCAN & EZSCAN are regulated health products under the CE certification, Class IIa, according to the European Medical Device directive – SGS Belgium, notified body 1639. The test allows screening and monitoring of peripheral autonomic neuropathies. It can be performed in diabetic patients or in patients suffering from neurological diseases involving small fibers damage. As with any diagnostic test, its results must be interpreted in a global context including the clinic and other examinations performed. Please read the user manual instructions carefully.
