Sapphire PSG™ is a wireless, Type I, 22-channel, full PSG sleep platform from CleveMed, and here’s why you should care.

1. Wireless: This complete sleep study system is small and wireless, and fits in a portable brief-case of sorts. This saves a lot of time and lab set-up costs, because it operates wirelessly, and the facility won’t have to be expensively hard-wired with cables. (It’s also more convenient for the patient who need not be tethered to the acquisition system)
2. Expanding the reach of sleep services: If you are unsure how the sleep market changes will affect your sleep business, Sapphire PSG™ can be used for traditional in-sleep-lab full PSG studies, as well as, remotely attended, or unattended (full PSG) sleep studies in the home, nursing homes, hotel-based-labs, hospital sleep labs, etc.
3. Accommodating multi-purpose facilities: Sapphire PSG has successfully aided facilities in becoming multi-purpose spaces, since it small and can be easily stored away when not in use. For example, a night-time sleep lab space can be used as a daytime clinic in the same facility.
4. Sapphire PSG uses state-of-the-art, wireless hardware with two frequency options (902-928 MHZ or 2.4-2.485 GHz.) built into the system; you can choose the model that best suits your environment.
5. Reliable Data Storage: Sleep study data is wirelessly transmitted from the patient unit at very high speeds, and stored on the computer unit and as well as removable SD memory card in the patient unit.
6. Meets AASM guidelines: Six of the 22 channels are EEG channels.
7. DreamPort is a recently launched accessory to the Sapphire PSG system. Now sleep technicians can take full PSG to the patient wherever they are located (especially if they can’t make it to the sleep lab), and remotely attend/monitor patients over the internet.
