ResMed EasySense Respiratory Effort Sensor – ApneaLink Air / Plus

Description

Quick answer: The ResMed EasySense Respiratory Effort Sensor is a replacement accessory for the ResMed ApneaLink Air and ApneaLink Plus home sleep screening devices. It measures respiratory effort — the movement of the chest and abdomen during breathing — using a soft elastic belt worn around the torso, and is one of the signals the ApneaLink records during an overnight sleep test. ResMed reference code: 22321.

What does the effort sensor do?

During a home sleep apnea screening, the ApneaLink device records several channels of data to help a clinician assess sleep-disordered breathing. The ApneaLink Air can record up to five channels: respiratory effort, pulse, oxygen saturation, nasal flow and snoring. This sensor captures the respiratory effort channel: it uses a comfortable elastic belt placed around the torso to detect how the chest and abdomen move with each breath, recording that effort non-invasively throughout the night.
