Frequently asked questions
How does the thermistor sensor monitor respiration?
The sensor monitors respiration using three integrated heat-sensitive resistors (thermistors). These components detect the temperature fluctuations between inhaled and exhaled air.
This differential temperature measurement is converted into a small, reliable analog electrical voltage signal that is directly proportional to the airflow, providing a clear indication of the pediatric patient’s respiration.
Is this flow sensor suitable for adult patients?
This sensor is specifically designed for pediatric patients to monitor their respiration airflow.
Is the SleepSense Alice 5 Pediatric Thermistor Flow Sensor intended for home use?
The SleepSense Alice 5 Pediatric Thermistor Flow Sensor is designed for professional use in medical settings. It should be used under the order of a physician to ensure accuracy and reliability in respiration monitoring.
What kind of signal does this sensor output?
The sensor generates a small analog electrical voltage to provide a reliable respiration airflow indication.
Is this flow sensor brand new?
Yes, the SleepSense Alice 5 Pediatric Thermistor Flow Sensor is factory new, ensuring it meets the highest standards of quality and reliability for professional use.
Who is this sensor designed for?
This sensor is specifically designed for use with pediatric patients, ensuring accurate and reliable readings tailored to their needs.
What technology does the sensor use?
The sensor uses three heat-sensitive resistors (thermistors) to detect precise temperature changes in inhaled and exhaled air, providing a clear indication of respiration airflow.
