Frequently asked questions
Does this cable work with systems that accept inductive effort sensors?
This SleepSense interface cable is specifically designed for use with the Philips Respironics Alice 5 monitoring system.
It works by precisely measuring the inductance changes from compatible SleepSense Inductive Belts (sold separately) to generate accurate respiration waveforms.
Key features include:
- System Compatibility: Explicitly engineered for seamless integration with the Alice 5 unit.
- Longevity: Features an internal battery rated for up to 700 nights of operation.
- Simplicity: Requires no manual calibration for immediate, plug-and-play use.
Does the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable require any calibration before use?
No, the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable does not require any calibration. It is designed for ease of use and is ready to use out of the box.
What is the model number for the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable?
The model number for the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable is 9102A5.
What components are included?
The package for the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable (Part No. 9102A5) contains all necessary components to interface an inductive belt with the Alice 5 system:
- Interface Cable Unit: The primary module labeled “Chest,” which contains the internal electronics and long-life battery.
- System Output Leads: Dual output leads designed for connectivity with the Philips Respironics Alice 5 unit, terminating in white and blue connectors.
- Inductive Belt Connection Leads: Leads for attaching the unit to the inductive belt (sold separately), which include one lead with a circular snap/electrode connector.
- User Manual: The accompanying user manual is included.
How does this cable accurately measure respiration waveforms?
The SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable uses advanced Inductive Technology (RIP) to ensure accurate respiration monitoring. It functions by connecting to a SleepSense Inductive Belt (sold separately), measuring the precise changes in inductance as the belt loop expands and contracts during breathing. This measurement is then converted into a reliable electrical signal that replicates the patient’s respiration waveforms. A significant advantage is the plug-and-play simplicity, as the cable requires absolutely no manual calibration.
Is the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable intended for professional use only?
Yes, the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable is intended for professional use only and should be sold by or on the order of a physician.
Is the Alice 5 inductive cable easy to use?
Yes, the SleepSense Alice 5 Chest Inductive Interface Cable is designed for convenience and efficiency. It offers several key benefits to streamline professional use:
- Plug-and-Play Setup: The cable requires no calibration and features a small, convenient design.
- High Accuracy: It accurately measures inductance changes from the belt to generate a reliable replication of respiration waveforms.
- Long-Life Internal Battery: The unit is rated for extended use, providing power for up to 700 nights of operation.
- Full Compatibility: It integrates seamlessly with SleepSense Inductive Belts and the Philips Respironics Alice 5 monitoring unit.
Does it provide accurate respiration waveforms?
Yes, the internal electronics accurately measure inductance changes from the inductive belt, generating a reliable replication of respiration waveforms. This ensures precise data for sleep study monitoring.
Is it compatible with my existing equipment?
Yes, this cable offers plug-and-play compatibility with SleepSense Inductive Belts and is completely compatible with the Philips Respironics Alice 5 unit for seamless integration into your sleep study setup.
What technology does this cable use?
The cable utilizes Inductive Technology (RIP/Inductive Technology) to measure changes in inductance proportional to the cross-section area of an inductive belt loop around the body. This allows it to generate accurate respiration waveforms.
