Ludomed’s rabbit telemetry jackets are engineered to meet the demands of non-invasive physiological monitoring in preclinical research. These jackets combine comfort, stability, and secure device placement, featuring an integrated pocket designed to hold transmitters for ECG, respiration, and other telemetry endpoints, without compromising animal welfare.
This model ensures compatibility with commercial telemetry platforms while maintaining a snug fit adapted to rabbit anatomy.
This product is tailored to fit the body shape and proportions of a New Zealand rabbit strain.
Key Applications
Non-invasive ECG, respiration, and activity monitoring in rabbits.
Secure placement of telemetry transmitters in long-term pharmacology or toxicology studies.
Ideal for housing conditions that require restraint without impeding mobility.
Useful in studies requiring repeated data acquisition with minimal stress to the animal.
Anatomical & Welfare Considerations
These jackets are shaped to follow the natural contours of the rabbit’s back and thorax, ensuring minimal restriction and reducing risk of pressure points. Lightweight materials and secure closures allow for extended wear, supporting refinement practices in accordance with animal welfare guidelines.
Ordering Information
Please specify the rabbit strain, size, and telemetry system being used. Our team will assist in selecting the optimal jacket size and pocket configuration to ensure compatibility with your study design.
Rabbit Jacket with Pocket, Non-Invasive Telemetry
POCKET
- Coated polyester fabric finish - water-repellent; protects transmitter from extreme housing conditions.
- YKK® #5 brass zipper – designed for safety and durability.
- Stainless steel slider hooks and D-rings - help deter animal manipulation - no rust after washing.
JACKET
- Breed-specific design ensures optimal coverage of the rabbit’s body.
- Double layered polyester/nylon mesh - breathable and lightweight, enhances airflow and temperature regulation.
- Cotton fabric sleeves - offer extra warmth and equipment protection.
