It is well-suited for rehabilitation clinics, neurology practices, and hospital-based therapy departments where sensory testing is a routine component of patient evaluation and progress monitoring. The stainless steel construction makes it particularly effective for clinical settings where instrument sterilization between patients is required as part of infection control protocols. Any clinician who performs sensory assessment and needs a durable, easy-to-clean pinwheel of standard clinical length will find the Fabrication Enterprises Wartenburg Pinwheel a reliable and widely used assessment tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is a Wartenburg Pinwheel used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Wartenburg Pinwheel is a neurological assessment tool used to evaluate cutaneous (skin) sensation and sensory nerve function. The clinician rolls the spur across the patient's skin in a defined pattern to assess the patient's ability to detect sharp sensation, identify areas of sensory loss or hypersensitivity, and map dermatomal or peripheral nerve distributions. It is commonly used in neurological exams, peripheral nerve injury assessment, and sensory re-education programs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this pinwheel be sterilized between patients?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — the stainless steel construction allows the pinwheel to be wiped down with standard clinical disinfectants or sterilized according to your facility's infection control protocols. Always follow your facility's guidelines for reusable clinical instruments used on skin surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the packaging contain latex?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — the non-retail packaging for this item contains latex. If you or the intended user has a latex allergy, take appropriate precautions when handling the packaging. The instrument itself is stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the same as a neurological hammer pinwheel attachment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo — the Wartenburg Pinwheel is a standalone instrument, not an attachment for a reflex hammer. It is used specifically for sensory assessment by rolling the spur across the skin surface, whereas a reflex hammer is used to test deep tendon reflexes by striking a tendon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fabrication Enterprises","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40388469260342,"sku":"10059","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/fabrication-enterprises-nerve-sensory-evaluator-access-default-title-fabrication-enterprises-wartenburg-pinwheel-stainless-steel-7-5-inch-23631683158070.jpg?v=1788637181","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/en-ca\/products\/fabrication-enterprises-wartenburg-pinwheel-stainless-steel-7-5-inch","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
