Why is the BRAEBON SmartBelt better than piezo technology?
The advantage of the SmartBelt is that it is much more responsive, does not produce false paradoxical effort, and can produce a true DC signal when compared to piezo based respiratory effort sensors. This is important for better detection of subtle changes associated with sleep disordered breathing, such as UARS. BRAEBON has pushed the technology envelope of piezo sensors with the current Model 0528 product offering, but the technology inherent in the SmartBelt design allows for more precision, an upgrade path to the quantitative SmartBelt-Plus system, and more durability all for about the same price as a couple of piezo belts from BRAEBON’s competitors.
