Whip Mix recently released the GEM Pulse Oximeter to help clinicians monitor patients’ sleep disordered breathing.
The GEM uses cloud technology for convenient and prompt readings from the patient’s home that can be transmitted to the doctor’s office, according to a press release. It is designed to assess airway function using SPO2 and variations in heart rate to help measure how well the airway functions during sleep. The oximeter then transmits the data to a Galaxy tablet for storage and processing.
The system can be upgraded to the GEM Pro by adding the BioPlux Amplifier. This option is for clinicians who want to include bruxism measurements with airway screening. The GEM Pro also gives readings for body position and audio records of snoring.
