Product catalog summary
Product Overview:
MiniMuffs® are noise attenuators specifically designed for premature babies to protect their sensitive ears in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). They provide a 'quiet hour' by reducing noise levels, aligning with the American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines for safe noise levels.
Specifications:
MiniMuffs reduce sound levels by at least 7 decibels, resulting in a sound pressure level reduction of more than 50%. The dimensions of each unit are 0.31 x 1.125 x 1.375 inches (0.787 x 2.856 x 3.493 cm).
Ordering Information:
Each box contains 36 pairs of neonatal noise attenuators, individually wrapped, with the part number 040341.
Benefits and Features:
  • Protects sensitive ears of babies, especially those under ventilation.
  • Reduces disruptive noise during infant transfers and transport in emergency vehicles.
  • Comfortable fit with a soft foam oval-shaped design and gentle hydrogel adhesive.
  • Single-patient use design meets infection control standards.
Clinical Impact:
Reduced noise levels have been clinically demonstrated to positively impact infant states, potentially leading to longer sleep periods, optimal oxygenation, and improved physiological stability.
