VerTouch Disposable Device: A non-powered device intended to be used with a parent pressure imaging display unit to assist a clinician in identifying anatomical landmarks for locating and marking an interspinous needle insertion site, prior to a neuraxial diagnostic or therapeutic procedure (e.g., epidural anesthesia). It consists of a hand-held frame, with an integrated piezoresistive force sensor array (electrically excited by the display unit), designed to be attached to the display unit and placed on the patient’s lumbar spine region for noninvasive tactile-force mapping. A hygienic cover/sleeve and skin marking pen are typically supplied with the device. This is a single-use device.
