Nox A1s™
Portable and easy-to-use polysomnography system
Like its predecessor, the Nox A1s is an easy-to-use1, portable polysomnography (PSG) system that enables home-based or in-lab diagnosis of sleep-related breathing disorders. With an ergonomic design, the device has been developed to record a high-quality signal.
Resmed does not offer this product in the UK. Availability across regions may vary.
Nox SAS: Make polysomnography simple – in hospital and at home
The Nox SAS is an innovative solution for recording EEG, ECG and EMG data via electrodes positioned along the forehead – removing the need for EEG electrodes on the scalp or chin EMGs. This provides patients with the opportunity to have polysomnography tests at home3, with accuracy comparable to a conventional PSG study4. Compatible with the Nox A1s system, the setup is simplified to save you time, or to give your patients the ability to run their own setup at home.
Discover the Noxturnal App
The Noxturnal app is a smart Android™ app that can be used on your mobile phone or tablet to help simplify the setup of your sleep studies. Connected wirelessly to the Nox A1s Recorder, it offers a variety of advanced functionalities designed for a more flexible user experience:
- a control status and live signals,
- the possibility to configure and start recording remotely,
- the ability to perform biocalibration and impedance checks next to your patient.
Nox C1s access point device
The Nox C1s access point device can extend the Nox A1s (with conventional setup and Nox SAS setup), system, making it possible for you to conduct online sleep studies with synchronised video thanks to a Bluetooth dongle inserted into the Nox C1s USB input.
The stable Bluetooth wireless connectivity has been upgraded, allowing the patient to move freely around the room during in-lab recording. The Nox C1s has 12 DC channels and is compatible with a range of third-party external devices.
