Apnoe-Monitor Somnibel

Somnibel is a Class IIa medical device that reduces the impact of positional sleep apnea and/or snoring. It consists of a small, light device that is attached to the forehead and vibrates gently whenever your patient is sleeping in a supine position, encouraging him or her to change position and thus reducing the impact of respiratory events in sleep, such as positional apnea or snoring. Many different clinical studies believe positional therapy to be an effective solution for positional OSA, obtaining similar results to CPAP treatment. Somnibel has been developed by SIBELMED with the collaboration of the sleep units at the Araba/Osakidetza University Hospital (Vitoria, SPAIN) and the Arnau de Vilanova University Hospital (Lleida, SPAIN). Models: SOMNIBEL: Is aimed at patients with OSA and/or positional snoring. Among other functions, it is activated 15 minutes after lying down to sleep and detects the sitting position, waiting a few minutes before re-applying the stimulus so that the patient can fall asleep after having gotten up. SOMNIBEL PRO: SomnibelPro is aimed at sleep units and prescribing centers. It monitors, assesses the effectiveness and tracks the therapy. Its configuration means that the signals can be recorded, viewed and analyzed using SomniLab software.
