Graseby Respiration Monitor (Rental)

Medicare supplies the Graseby MR10 Monitor for Rental. Proven over 22 years of use to bring complete reliability to infant monitoring in hospital, at home and on the move. The MR10 is a single channel respiration monitor with a choice of a 10 or 20 second apnea delay. To work, the Monitor requires a Respiration Sensor. The Sensor is attached to the baby's abdomen and is linked to the Monitor by a narrow tube.

A breathing signal is picked up by the soft, foam filled Sensor (Respiration Sensor) attached to the infant’s abdomen. During breathing, expansion of the abdominal wall causes a small amount of air to pass through the Sensor and tube to the Monitor. During breathing the Monitor will also make an audible click and give a simultaneous visual indication. If the selected alarm time (20sec.) is breached (i.e. if no breath is detected after 20sec.) an audiovisual alarm is triggered.

The Sensor is a disposable item and should be replaced after a maximum of 7 days to minimise false alarms.
