Etoims® Overview

eToims® (Electrical Twitch Obtaining Intramuscular Stimulation) is a system comprising ET127 evoked response stimulator device with non-invasive surface stimulation technique to diagnose presence of irritable trigger points (neuromuscular junctions). Very brief surface electrical stimulation at muscle trigger points causes muscles to twitch. The ease or difficulty of evoking twitches with strong forces differentiate acute from chronic nerve irritation/ partial denervation. The eToims® Technique and ET127 are the patented inventions of Jennifer Chu, M.D., principal and CEO of ETOIMS Medical Technology and Emeritus Associate Professor in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine.
