BPO1 Body Position Sensor Instructions For Use (Rev. 23072801)
Intended Uses & Features
The RIP and Body Position Sensors areintended to measure and output
respiratory effort signals and body position, respectively, from a patient for
archival in @ polysomnography study. The sensors are accessories to a
polysomnography system which records and conditions the physiological signals
foranalysis and display, such that the data may be analyzed by 2 qualified
sleep clinician to aid in the diagnosis of sleep disorders.
The RIP and Body Position Sensors areintended for use on both adults and
children by healthcare professionals within a hospital, laboratory, clinic, or
nursing home; or outside of a medical facility under the direction of a
medical professional.
The RIP and Body Position Sensors are not intended for the life monitoring of
high risk patients, do not include or trigger alarms, and arenot intended to
be used as a critical component of:
- an alarm or alarm system;
- an apnea monitor or apnea monitoring system; or
- life monitor or ife monitoring system.

Setup and Function
- Place a respiratory belt (such as the Neurotronics RIP Belt) around either the patient’s chest or abdomen.
- Position sensor 5o that the Body Position Orientation Symbolis in the same orientation as the patient
- Wrap the hook and loop strap of the sensor around the center of the respiratory bett
- The sensor should be positioned on the front of the patient, along the center line of their body.
- Ensure the sensor s firmly in place and does not slide or rotate around the belt
- Plugthe output connector into a recorder.
Note: When disconnecting from the amplifier, grasp the connectors firmly.
Do not pull on the wire leads as this can damage the connectors. Damage caused
by pulling on the wire leads is not covered under warranty.
The P01 Body Position sensor uses an accelerometer to detect the orientation
it is in.
It detects upright, ight side down, left side down, prone, and supine
positions. Check that these outputs match the patient’s orientation prior to
starting the sleep study.
Cleaning
Clean and inspect device for damage before each use.
To clean sensor, wipe the plastic enclosure, strap, and wire set with one of
the following
- Soft cloth and mild detergent
- Soft cloth and 70% sopropyl alcohol
- Soft cloth and Bleach solution containing 0.6% Sodium Hypochlorite
- Metrex Cavi-Wipe
- PDI Sani-Cloth Bleach Wipe
- PDI Super Sani-Cloth Wipe
To disinfect the sensor, follow the cleaning solution’s instructions or
recognized standards for disinfection.
DO ot immerse the sensor in cleaning solution or allow liquid to get into any
openings. Immersing the sensor will damage the device and void the product
warranty.
Ensure the sensor is thoroughly dry before use.
