Frequently asked questions
Does this sensor accurately detect critical sleep events?
Yes, the ThermiSense Sensor is specifically engineered for accurate respiratory monitoring during pediatric sleep studies, ensuring compliance with AASM guidelines.
It reliably detects the following critical respiratory events by measuring oral/nasal thermal airflow changes and the airflow pressure signal:
- Apnea
- Hypopnea
- Flow limitation
The sensor’s core function is to provide the precise data necessary for diagnosing breathing irregularities.
What specific components are included in the kit?
The Salter Labs ThermiSense Sensor Embla Pediatric Kit is designed to provide comprehensive components for measuring oral/nasal thermal airflow during sleep studies. The kit includes the following essential items:
- Pediatric nasal cannula/holder: Captures the nasal airflow signal.
- Pediatric oral/nasal cannula/holder: Captures both oral and nasal airflow signals.
- Replacement filter package: Ensures ongoing system maintenance and clean operation.
Note that the reusable thermistor (used for thermal airflow detection) is designed to mount securely onto these disposable cannula holders.
Is the sensor compatible with existing PSG systems?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Sensor is designed for compatibility with most existing Polysomnography (PSG) systems.
This broad compatibility allows for seamless integration into various clinical settings, ensuring accurate monitoring of oral/nasal thermal airflow changes and pressure signals during sleep diagnostic studies.
Does this kit feature durable Kevlar cables?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Sensor Embla Pediatric Kit is equipped with rugged Kevlar tinsel cables. This robust construction ensures enhanced durability and longevity, providing reliable performance during critical sleep disorder studies for pediatric patients.
How does the patented holder increase comfort?
The ThermiSense Sensor utilizes a patented holder design specifically engineered to enhance patient comfort and safety during sleep diagnostic studies. This design minimizes the potential for direct skin contact by mounting the reusable thermistor head onto a disposable cannula holder, providing a necessary barrier.
Is this sensor kit AASM compliant?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense Sensor Embla Pediatric Kit is specifically designed to meet the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) guidelines for sleep diagnostic studies. This compliance ensures accurate and reliable performance for capturing respiratory events.
Key aspects of its AASM compliance include:
- Dual Signal Measurement: It accurately measures both oral/nasal thermal airflow changes and the airflow pressure signal.
- Event Detection: It ensures accurate identification of critical respiratory events, including apnea, hypopnea, and flow limitation, which is essential for high-quality pediatric diagnostics.
Does this sensor accurately measure thermal airflow?
Yes, the ThermiSense Sensor is specifically engineered to measure both oral/nasal thermal airflow changes and the airflow pressure signal. This capability ensures accurate detection of respiratory events, including apnea, hypopnea, and flow limitation, while fully complying with AASM guidelines. The system integrates a reusable thermistor that mounts onto a disposable cannula holder, optimizing signal integrity and workflow.
Is the ThermiSense thermistor reusable?
Yes, the Salter Labs ThermiSense system features a combination of reusable and disposable components to optimize both hygiene and workflow:
- The core thermistor sensor is reusable and built for durability, utilizing rugged kevlar tinsel cables.
- This reusable thermistor mounts securely onto a disposable cannula holder.
This design ensures measurement integrity while allowing for sanitary disposal of the patient-contact components. The kit includes both pediatric nasal and pediatric oral/nasal disposable cannula holders.
What is the warranty period for this kit?
The Salter Labs ThermiSense Sensor Embla Pediatric Kit comes with a 3-month warranty for the Thermistor Headset and a 1-year warranty for the Interface Box, ensuring reliable performance.
What cable and connector configurations are available?
The ThermiSense Sensor Embla Pediatric Kit offers three distinct cable and connector configurations to ensure compatibility with most existing Polysomnography (PSG) systems:
- 7’ (2.13 m) wire with a 1.5 mm DIN connector
- 7’ (2.13 m) wire with a keyhole connector
- 30” (0.76 m) wire with a keyhole connector
