Synopsis
Snuza mobile baby monitors detect your baby's movements and alerts you if all movement stops. Halo is a small (1oz) device that clips onto the baby's diaper. The flexible hypoallergenic tip, which is in contact with the baby's skin at all times, detects the slightest movement. As long as it is detecting movement, it will remain inactive. If Snuza doesn't detect any movement for 15 seconds, it will emit a vibrating stimulus (this vibration is similar to the tactile stimulus provided in a hospital environment, especially with premature babies. If Snuza doesn't detect any movement for 20 seconds, it emits an audible alarm, alerting the parent or caregiver to act. This unique product was developed in direct response to parental concern and anxiety over a newborn's propensity towards sleep apnea. Conditions in which babies are more pre-disposed to sleep apnea are as follows: Mothers who smoke during pregnancy, Exposure to smoking during pregnancy or after birth, Siblings of infants who have died in a incident, Teenage or drug-addicted mothers, Babies with mild upper respiratory tract infections, Babies who have previously experienced an event where resuscitation was required, Premature or low birthweight babies, Twins, triplets ,or multiples. Traditional movement monitors that utilize pads are limited to one child (because if you put multiples together, movement from EITHER baby will be detected and prevent an alarm) and can only be used when they are asleep in their crib. Because Snuza is portable, it can be used anywhere your baby sleeps. Perfect at home, for traveling, or for visiting friends and family.
