Abstract
A respiration monitoring device for an infant patient includes three thermistors which are arranged so that one thermistor underlies each nostril and one thermistor overlies the patient's mouth. The thermistors are mounted on a thin flexible support member having an adhesive back so that the same can be temporarily secured to the patient's nose. The support member includes an upper portion which overlies the bridge of the nose and a lower portion which overlies the nostrils. The lower portion has a pair of openings therein and two of the thermistors are arranged in these openings. Each thermistor is enclosed in a fabric mesh material to prevent inhalation of fragments in the event of breakage. The support member may also carry a CO.sub.2 sensor, an oxygen saturation sensor and/or a pulse rate sensor.
