Respiration Transducers
for Respiratory Effort
QUANTUM SERIES

Model 1578, 1583, 1579, & 1588

• No false paradoxical respiration
• Accurate depiction of building respiration
• Improved hypopnea detection
• Works synergistically with nasal pressure
• Easy application
• Affordable
Latex Free

This 2-channel kit provides the recording of respiratory effort from chest and abdomen using two transducers.

A single transducer can be purchased for applications requiring one channel of respiration effort recording.

Note: Quantum™ effort sensors are non-referenced and produce bipolar µV level signals. Proper signal processing requires AC coupled, referenced differential amplifiers.
