Intercostal EMG - A new way ro record effort - 1

SIMPLY BETTER. FOR THE RECORDING OF RESPIRATORY EFFORT SIGNALS STANDARD EFFORT BELTS Signal directly reﬂects muscle activity (electrical signal) Signals depend strongly on the muscles’ ability to contract  Monitoring tool for respiratory insuﬃciency/ muscle dysfunction1,2 Belt positioning determines the correct abdomen/thorax eﬀort signal  One sensor size for all patients Individual belt sizes needed  Disposable electrodes – fast and cost eﬀective and no disinfection/cleaning of the sensor  No representation of direct breathing eﬀort Direct recording of breathing stimulation Disposable belts or time-consuming cleaning of re-usable belts M.L.

Intercostal EMG - A new way ro record effort - 2

DATA PRE-PROCESSING Single IC-EMG sensor for SOMNOscreen™ plus (SEN623), SOMNO HD™ Combined IC-EMG + ECG sensor (3-channel) for SOMNOtouch™ NIBP (TOS015) Combined IC-EMG + ECG sensor (1-channel) for SOMNOtouch™ RESP (TOS016) Photo cover page: © magicmine, iStock IC-EFFORT PROCESSED For central apneas, cardiac oscillations in the thorax channel may lead to faulty obstructive scoring. For obstructive apnea, as shown in this example, there is no clear eﬀort visible for the thorax and abdomen channel. In contrast - the IC-EMG indicates a clear eﬀort obstruction. With a specialized algorithm ECG...
