Do all RIP sensors meet the AASM recommendations?
The AASM recommendation for RIP is Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography. As of this writing another existing technology known Respiratory Impedance Plethysmography is not what the AASM recommends. There may be some confusion as both go under the RIP moniker, but they are very different. The technologist looking to meet current AASM recommendations should be aware of the difference and insist on Inductance Plethysmography.
