Cleaning Instructions May wash the textile sleeve if needed. High-level disinfectant.

The signal conditioning module may be cleaned with a non-corrosive hospital approved disinfectant. The effort belt

sensors can be soaked for a short period of time or wiped with a disin-

fecting cloth.

Outer surfaces may be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with a small amount of water, isopropyl alcohol, or other non-corrosive hospital-approved disinfectant. Do not immerse or allow liquid to enter

the case.

To clean electrodes, use warm soapy water and rub gently with gloved fingers or cotton swab. Dry with soft cotton cloth and use alcohol for usual cleaning. Use ethylene oxide gas or invert soap, if disinfec-tion (or sterilization) is necessary. Do not clean the electrode with hot water or chloric bleaching agent. Do not sterilize the electrode by autoclaving, cresol,

or glutaraldehyde.

Use a cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol 70%, a 10% aqueous solution of sodium

hypochlorite (bleach), a 2% glutaraldehyde solution, ammonia, mild soap, or disinfectant spray cleaner such as Steris Coverage Spray

HB. Wipe down with a clean water-dampened cloth to rinse and dry before use. Don’t im-

merse or sterilize the LoFlo CO2 module.

Wipe the sensor head and the cable gently with a soft cloth moistened with 70% al-

cohol. To disinfect the monitor exterior and touch screen, wipe the surfaces using either 70% isopropyl alcohol, 70% ethanol, or 4%

Diversol BX solution, dissolved in water, on a paper towel or tissue.

Single patient disposable.

Additional Information

Beddit is an automatic sleep tracker that combines an on-bed sensor (noth-

ing to wear) with an App for iOS and Android that tracks heart-rate, respira-

tion, movement, snoring, ambient noise, room temperature, and humid-ity. A SleepScore rates the quality of sleep and provides a nightly, weekly, monthly, and 90-day view of the data,

sleep quality, and trends.

PVDF, high output, variable sizes, easy to use.

The effort belt sensors incorporate PVDF film technology that provides a more responsive, linear, and stable

signal compared to other effort belts. Each kit comes with 5-50 yard rolls of

effort belt strap material. Complies with AASM Technical Specifications.

Accurate, objective, and automatic. Designed for clinical and research

use, the Zmachine Insight is a single-channel EEG-based sleep staging

system that is easy-to-operate, unob-trusive and very patient-friendly.

Silver/Silver Chloride electrodes, 1.5 mm touch proof connectors and cable length is 1.5 m.

Twelve electrodes per box.

No calibration required; cell and filter are re-movable; connects easily with a single USB

connection; whisper-quiet.

The TCM TOSCA system uses just a single sensor for continuous monitoring of ven-tilatory status and oxygen saturation in

pediatric and adult patients. It is designed to monitor pCO2, SpO2, and pulse rate, and

can be connected to polysomnographs for overnight monitoring of ventilation and

oxygen saturation in patients suffering from sleep-related breathing disorders. The TCM TOSCA is always ready to use,

offering stable measurements at any time with no wait for calibration.

Rhythmlink Single Patient Disposable EEG and Sticky Pad Electrodes are reliable, durable, cost effective, and

record exceptional data quality. With three EEG electrode styles to choose from (traditional Deep Cup EEG Electrode, Slim Cup EEG Electrode, and Rhythmlink’s patented Flat

Webbed EEG Electrode), you can customize the right product for each patient. And add the Recording Hydro-gel Sticky Pads, which are available in two pad sizes and vari-ous lead wire lengths for general EMG, chin, legs, etc, and you have a solution that is better for your budget and bet-ter for your patient. Free samples available upon request.

Cost analysis assistance available upon request.ELE

Additional Information

Rochester Disposable GoldSelect EEG Electrodes are designed with a sleep technologist in mind. Premium, 24k gold plated cups, 10 wire colors per package, available in 4, 5, 6, & 10 ft lead

wire lengths. An affordable option to eliminate the hassles associated with reusable electrodes.

Continuous, overnight monitoring of tcPCO2 has become essential for assessing nocturnal hypoven-tilation, screening for hypercapnia, and titration of noninvasive ventilation. SenTec monitors interface with most polygraphic and polysomnography sys-

tems.

ThermoCan Cannulas are uniquely designed with a built-in thermistor making it easier and more cost-

effective to monitor thermal and pressure airflow at the same time. Reusable ThermoCan Interface Cables eas-ily insert into the sides of ThermoCan Cannulas, trans-mitting the thermal airflow signal to the PSG system and replacing the need for expensive thermistors.
