BM-02 BABY BREATHING MONITOR
The BM-02 is a certifi ed medical device that monitors a baby's breathing. It is designed for use by health care
providers and also for the home health care environment. Its purpose is to give a timely optical and acoustic
warning of any decrease in a baby's breathing frequency which may threaten her life (so-called Sudden Infant
Death Syndrome - SIDS). The breathing of babies younger than one year is irregular and reasons that have
not yet been clarifi ed sometimes make a baby 'forget' to take a breath. However, respiratory arrest of breath or
apnea can be due to other causes as well (vomit, symptoms of certain diseases, etc.).
BM-02 consists of a sensor pad with a sensitive detector that is placed under the baby's mattress and of an
electronic unit with indication lamps and an acoustic alarm. The device has a very simple control. It is battery
operated and runs its proper function auto-test upon startup. It does not affect or restrict the baby's movement.
In oxygen-enriched environments just the sensor pad can be used.
RECOMMENDED MEASURES TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SIDS
Do not put the baby to sleep on her tummy but on her back or side.
Do not smoke during pregnancy and after childbirth in the presence of the baby, not even within residen-
tial premises. Nicotine has a proven inhibitory effect on the baby's respiratory center. Its presence was
repeatedly detected in the blood of dead babies. When in contact with her baby a mother-smoker exhales
cigarette smoke and nicotine residues even 30 minutes after fi nishing her last cigarette!
Make sure the baby is neither too warm nor too cold during sleep. Hyperthermia may boost bacteria growth
in the airways. Their presence may trigger a complex immunologic response that may even lead even to a
respiratory center arrest.
Leave the baby's head uncovered. Do not place any soft covers and pillows in the crib of a baby that is not
at least 12 months old and that could pull such covers or pillows over her head.
Do not use any straps in the crib, make sure the baby's toys are free of strings or tapes longer than 30 cm.
Never place plastic bags in the crib.
