Medspira Debuts Breath Hold ES Biofeedback Device at ECR 2012

Press releases may be edited for formatting or style | February 24, 2012

Like other Breath Hold products, new Breath Hold ES combines an expandable bellows system and pressure sensitive transducer tube, which wraps around the patient's chest or stomach to measure changes in abdominal girth due to patient respiration. For breath-hold monitoring, a reference point, typically either an inhale or exhale, is selected. After selection, the central monitor light communicates when patients have reached their respiratory target, while additional lights visually alert them if they stray from their desired hold position. To support a reproducible shallow respiratory pattern, patients work to keep their breathing within a central group of lights.

The Medspira family of Breath Hold devices provides a non-intrusive, comfortable way to promote predictable breath-hold and breathing patterns that enable greater control over respiratory motion. A significantly more cost-effective alternative to traditional reactive breath control technologies, Breath Hold technology enables a far greater number of sites to effectively address the problems of motion due to inconsistent patient breathing.
