Product information
Polygraphy is a simplified form of sleep diagnostics that measures fewer parameters than polysomnography. Usually, polygraphy includes the recording of respiratory flow, respiratory effort, oxygen saturation in the blood, and also snoring activity.
Compared to polysomnography, polygraphy is less complex and is more frequently used to monitor patients at home, particularly for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea and to monitor the effectiveness of therapy.
Questions on the product:
How can BluNet identify and treat sleep disorders?
BluNet diagnoses sleep disorders such as sleep apnoea, insomnia, restless legs syndrome and parasomnias, enabling targeted treatment and improved sleep quality.
Why is the treatment of sleep disorders important?
Sleep disorders lead to daytime tiredness, concentration problems and microsleep. In the long term, they increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, psychological problems and accidents. Appropriate treatment is therefore crucial.
What types of sleep diagnosis does BluNet offer?
- Polygraphy (level 3 and 4 according to AASM): measures respiratory flow, respiratory effort, oxygen saturation and snoring activity. Ideal for diagnosing sleep apnoea, especially for use at home.
- Polysomnography (PSG) (level 2 according to AASM): A more comprehensive sleep study that also measures brain activity (EEG), eye movements (EOG) and muscle activity on the chin (EMG). Used for more complex sleep disorders.
- Extended examinations in the sleep laboratory (Level 1 according to AASM): If necessary, further examinations can be carried out in the sleep laboratory, often combined with real-time camera recordings. It is currently not possible to carry out real-time camera recordings with the BluNet.
What makes the BluNet sleep diagnostics system unique?
The modular system can be expanded from polygraphy to polysomnography. It is compact, user-friendly and offers maximum performance.
What software compatibility does the BluNet system offer?
The BluNet interface is compatible with various analysis programmes such as Polysmith BluNet, RemLogic, Rembrant, Noxturnal and Domino. It provides EDF+ data for conventional sleep analysis software.
There is no mandatory link between hardware and analysis software. The hardware is also available without analysis software.
What types of Polysmith software are available?
There are four different types of Polysmith software. Choosing the right type of software is crucial for optimal use.
How important is the internet connection when using the Polysmith software?
It must be clarified whether the software is used on a computer with or without an Internet connection, whether in a practice or a hospital.
What are the requirements and advantages of the multi-device licence?
The multi-device licence requires a permanent Internet connection. The software is only fully functional when there is an Internet connection.
What are the requirements and advantages of the stand-alone licence?
The stand-alone licence only requires an Internet connection for the first installation. After installation, the software works without an Internet connection.
What needs to be considered for individual network settings?
Some hospitals and surgeries have specific network settings where certain computers are connected to the network and others are not. The distributor should address this aspect in sales discussions and take the customer's individual requirements into account.
