The LuMon™ System is a noninvasive, non-radiation device that provides information on regional impedance variation
within a cross-section of a patient's thorax. Graphical and numerical information is presented to the user as an adjunctive
tool to other clinical information to support the user to assess a patient’s respiratory condition.
The LuMon™ System is indicated for neonatal and infant patients with chest circumferences between 16.5 - 50 cm and
adolescent through adult patients with chest circumferences between 76 - 128 cm who are breathing spontaneously or
require mechanical ventilation in professional healthcare facilities.
Impedance-based respiratory rate monitoring is indicated for adults 22 years and older whose chest circumference is
above 76 cm only.
The LuMon™ System also displays selected physiological and respiratory parameters from supported bedside devices.
The LuMon™ System does not measure regional ventilation of the lungs.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
