Who We Are
PRECISION MEDICAL is a privately owned medical device company
formed in 2014 to promote a new innovated technology based on
NON-invasive Bio-marker detection for Autonomic Peripheral
Neuropathy(APN).
Hyperion is located in Dallas, TX

Smart SKAN
DISTAL NEUROPATHY (small fiber tissue detection)
IS
ONE OF THE MORE UNDERDIAGNOSED CONDITIONS ON MEDICAL
RECORD TODAY.
All Nerves Can Become
Neuropathic
SmartSKAN technology is
to the clinician, what
an X-ray is to an orthopedic
surgeon OR an ultrasound
is to a GBYN.

What Seperates SmartSKAN
SmartSKAN
1) Provides Quantitative Measurement
2) Tracts and Assesses the Patient's condition
3) Easy to Use ( non-invasive)
4) Reproducible – 95%
5) No patient preparation
SmartSKAN is FDA approved and Recognized by the
Neuropathy and Diabetes Association s.

Why Use SmartSKAN?
HOW OFTEN WOULD YOU BIOPSY A PATIENT IF YOU HAD THE
ADVANTAGE OF AVOIDING THE RISK OF AN INVASIVE BIOPSY
PROCEDURE ?
SMARTSKAN IS A

ENTRAPMENT
In Cardiac conditions Autonomic neuropathy
MUST be recognized to
reduce the mortality
of CAN(cardiac autonomic neuropathy).
Treatments include B-blockers, ACE Inhibitors, clonidine, pyridostigmine, etc,
pending symptoms.

How SmartSKAN Works
In short Iontophoresis(alternate currant) that works in conjunction with
Chromoamperometry(low frequency voltage).



This non-invasive scanner analyses the sweat glands to release
chloride ions in response to an electrochemical stimulus.
The level of activity is
linked to the status

The patient is grounded through
grounding pads- securing patient

How It Works- Iontopherisis
As shown above, we see a + and – currant flowing in and
between the dermis and the epidermis tissues.
Skin Conductance (ESC) is derived from the chloride ion flow

Results: Chromoamperometry
The results are concluded through the Conductance ratio
between the current measured and the difference in the
voltages obtained (∆anode-cathode)
ESC: Electrochemical Skin
Conductance is Obtained
when the low voltage is
applied to the anode

Sudorimetry with SmarkSKAN
BEFORE ANY CLINICAL SIGNS OR SYMPTOMS ARE PRESENT
Sudomotor dysfunction is the first detection of damage to
neurological distubances in DISTAL SMALL FIBER neuropathies.
In the graph to the right,
the blue lines repersent
the autonomic nerves

stimulating the glands.

DEFICIENCY – CARPAL TUNNEL- PAF(neuro-degeneration) RSD (hands)
MULTIPLE SYSTEM ATROPHY (MSA)
is a degenerative neurological
brain disorder. This cell degeneration
causes problems with movement,
balance, and other autonomic
functions of the body such as bladder
control or blood-pressure regulation.
The cause of MSA is unknown specific risk factors have been identified.

Follow UPS
Normal and Abnormal Results & Billing

If SmarkSKAN results are NORMAL
It is recommended to repeat testing in 6 to 9 months, depending on
patient’s risk factors concerning diabetes, cardio, kidney,
hypothyroid, etc)


If SmartSKAN results are ABNORMAL
Implement appropriate work-up or referrals
Repeat SmartSKAN in 3 months to monitor progress –
Nerve regeneration occurs in as little as 40 to 50 days
BILLING State regulated Medicare CPT/ID9 codes provided
Billable, office calls, testing, consultations and follow-ups. Precision
Medical provides codes for billing.

Physician's Interpretation Guide
Precision Medical provides a Physician Interpretation Guide to assist
in accurately Pinpointing a patient's diagnosis An example shown below shows a patient with balanced hand and feet
asymmetry.
The red dotted line indicates the spine. The X's indicate the patient area of
the spine where the radial dysfunction and nerve dysfunction exists.
You will receive a full
physician interpretation
guide and further
insturctions to pinpoint
and disagnois multiple
conditions effecting
patient outcome.
