Frequently asked questions
Is this cannula ideal for sleep diagnostic studies?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Adult Oral/Nasal Cannula/Holder is specifically designed for sleep diagnostic studies. It accurately monitors airflow pressure and snoring, making it an ideal choice for these applications.
Does the patented pocket ensure accurate monitoring?
Yes, the patented pocket/holder is a critical design feature intended to ensure the highest possible data accuracy during sleep diagnostic studies.
It achieves this by:
- Securing the Thermistor: The specialized, patented pocket is engineered to keep the ThermiSense thermistor firmly in place throughout the monitoring period.
- Maintaining Data Integrity: This stable, secure positioning prevents movement or displacement that could compromise the accurate measurement of airflow pressure and snore events, which are vital for reliable results.
Is this cannula designed for adult or pediatric use?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Cannula/Holder is designed for adult use.
Is the ThermiSense thermistor held securely?
Yes, security and reliable data acquisition are primary design features of this product. The Salter Labs ThermiSense Cannula includes a specialized, patented pocket/holder integrated into the structure. This feature is engineered specifically to ensure the ThermiSense thermistor remains firmly positioned throughout the duration of the sleep diagnostic study, minimizing movement and potential data loss.
Does this reliably monitor airflow and snoring?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Adult Oral/Nasal Cannula/Holder is specifically engineered to provide highly reliable data for sleep diagnostics. Its core features ensure accurate monitoring of vital parameters:
- Dual Monitoring Capability: It accurately monitors both airflow pressure and snore activity, crucial for comprehensive sleep diagnostic studies.
- Secure Thermistor Placement: The cannula features a patented pocket/holder designed specifically to keep the ThermiSense thermistor securely in position throughout the night, ensuring consistent and stable data acquisition.
What does the patented pocket/holder secure?
The patented pocket/holder is a key design element specifically engineered to reliably and securely hold the necessary ThermiSense thermistor.
This secure placement ensures accurate data collection during sleep diagnostic studies, facilitating the simultaneous monitoring of:
- Airflow pressure
- Snore activity
Is a filter option available for this cannula?
Yes, an integrated filter is available as an option for the Salter Labs ThermiSense Adult Oral/Nasal Cannula/Holder. This feature provides enhanced respiratory monitoring capabilities.
The filter is only included in one specific variant:
- Configuration with Filter: With 7’ (2.13 m) Airflow Pressure Tube and Filter
How does the patented pocket secure the thermistor?
The Salter Labs ThermiSense Cannula features a patented pocket/holder that is specifically engineered to ensure maximum stability and accuracy during sleep diagnostic studies.
This secure design offers two main benefits:
- Fixed Position: The pocket maintains the ThermiSense thermistor in a precise, fixed position.
- Prevents Displacement: It stops the sensor from shifting or becoming dislodged, even during movement throughout the study.
By ensuring the thermistor remains stable, the device guarantees continuous and accurate monitoring of both airflow pressure and snore events.
What tubing lengths are available?
The Salter Labs ThermiSense Cannula offers flexibility with two distinct tube length options, enabling easy setup regardless of where the monitoring equipment is placed:
- 2 feet (0.61 m): Suitable for applications requiring the patient to be close to the monitoring device.
- 7 feet (2.13 m): Provides extended reach for greater positional versatility during sleep diagnostic studies.
Note that the 7-foot length also has an available configuration that includes an integrated filter.
What is the bulk packaging quantity?
The ThermiSense Adult Oral/Nasal Cannula/Holder is packaged for high-volume use in clinical or laboratory environments. Each case contains 25 units of the cannula/holder assembly.
