Compass Recording Systems  

Compass Recording Systems are comprehensive, yet easy to use systems for detecting SDB. The Compass lightweight recorder uses a quick, USB download and provides the most ergonomic solution for you and your patient. Featuring different components and options to suit your needs, Compass is an ideal solution for detecting and controlling therapy of sleep disordered breathing. Compass comes with a detailed written manual and a helpful hook-up card for patients. The software also simplifies the process with an intuitive user interface featuring familiar tasks. This means less time spent on training and using the system.

Compass is available in two different configurations:  
   
Compass F10  

This recorder is ideal for detecting SDB, snoring and using the flattening index to indicate flow limitation in the upper airway.

 
   
Compass M10  

This recorder is ideal for detecting Sleep Disordered Breathing, differentiating between central and obstructive apnea and using RMI to indicate patient breathing instability. The M10 is also a perfect fit for therapy control studies as flow is detected through the XactTrace RIP belts.

 
   
Medcare Compass Software  

The Medcare Compass Software is used to prepare the Compass recorders, download and analyze the study. It introduces a new type of user interface, designed for a simple and efficient workflow.

 
   
Part of Medcare Pathway Programs  

Pathway Programs are designed to assist in managing and maintaining the patient population at large. By using components from the Pathway Programs, more efficient clinical pathways can be designed for patients that should undergo a sleep study of any kind.

 
   
Use the XactTrace and XFlow Advantage  

Medcare acquisition systems use the XactTrace advantage. This respiratory effort sensor from Medcare is based on the proven Respiratory Inductive Plethysmograph (RIP) technology. This solution delivers unmatched effort trace accuracy, eliminates polarity shift, and is more hygienic and comfortable for the patient.

XFlow is an efficient and unintrusive way to get the flow information you need. When the output of the abdominal and thoracic signals measured by XactTrace are combined, the patient's inspiratory and expiratory flow can be measured. This semi-quantitative XFlow signal is comparable to linearized airflow signals acquired from nasal pressure transducers and a pneumotachograph signal.
