Frequently asked questions
Is the sensor compatible with established PSG systems?
Yes, the SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit is specifically designed for reliable integration with established Polysomnography (PSG) systems.
The sensor is commonly used with and compatible with the following Natus Embla systems:
- Natus Embla N7000
- Natus Embla S4500
This seamless compatibility ensures you receive clear, artifact-free, qualitative readings of patient limb movements during professional sleep studies.
Is the SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit suitable for both children and adults?
Yes, the SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit is suitable for use on both children and adult patients in sleep laboratories or at home.
What configurations are available for the sensor kit?
The SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit is available in two configurations, allowing you to select the appropriate setup for your sleep study needs:
- One Limb
- Two Limbs
Is a physician's order required to purchase this sensor kit?
Yes, this SleepSense kit is intended for professional use only. Purchase is restricted and must be made by or on the order of a physician.
Is the movement sensor highly sensitive?
Yes, the SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor is designed for exceptional sensitivity to ensure accurate, artifact-free detection of movement during sleep studies.
Its superior performance is based on specific design features:
- Optimal Placement: The sensor is optimized for positioning directly on tendons, maximizing the detection of even subtle limb movements.
- Direct Proportional Signal: It produces an electrical signal that is directly proportional to the magnitude of the movement, providing precise qualitative data.
- Clear Indication: The output provides a clear, artifact-free, qualitative indication of movement, which is essential for reliable Polysomnography (PSG) studies.
Does the kit come with everything needed to secure it?
Yes, each kit includes the high-quality Elastic Ankle Band (#1730), which is specifically designed to hold the piezo sensor securely over the tendons for optimal data collection throughout the night.
Can this sensor be cleaned between different patient uses?
Yes. The sensor is built with a durable, molded-plastic housing designed for ease of sanitization. Users can refer to the official SleepSense cleaning documentation available online for the recommended agents and procedures to maintain the device between uses.
What is included in the Piezo Sensor kit?
The SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit is designed to provide everything needed for sensitive, artifact-free detection of limb movements during sleep studies.
Each professional kit includes:
- Elastic Ankle Band (Part #1730)
- Piezo Limb Movement Sensor(s) with Key Connector (Part #1771)
Note that the quantity of Piezo sensors included will vary based on your selected configuration, allowing you to choose a kit for either One Limb or Two Limbs.
What are the operating environment specifications?
The SleepSense Piezo Limb Movement Sensor Kit is designed to perform reliably under professional conditions. The environmental specifications are as follows:
- Operating Temperature: 40 to 104 °F (5 to 40 °C)
- Storage Temperature: -4 to 140 °F (-20 to 60 °C)
- Humidity (Operating and Storage): 5 to 95% (non-condensing)
These wide ranges ensure the sensor maintains its exceptional sensitivity, providing clear, artifact-free qualitative indications of limb movements during sleep studies.
Are there different sensor quantity options available?
Yes, to better fit your specific clinical diagnostic needs, the kit is available in two configurations:
- One Limb Kit (#1771-Kit): Includes one sensor and one ankle band.
- Two Limb Kit (#1771-2-Kit): Includes two sensors and two ankle bands.
