Summary

Apnea, a cessation in breathing is critical condition that affects the person regardless of age.

In infants, an apneic state occurs when there is an absence of respirations for 20 seconds (Alvaro \& Rigatto, 2012). In adults, there is a correlation between sleep apnea with increased risks of cardiovascular health problems (Wimms, Woehrle, Ketheeswaran, Ramanan, \& Armitstead, 2016; Wu, Yuan, Wang, Sun, Liu, and Wei, 2016; Hao, Xiandao, Li, Jingwu, Jinghua, \& Yongxiang, 2016).

The purpose of this proposed study is to investigate the reliability of a smart bed sheet's ability to detect physiological signals such as respiratory patterns.

The study's goals are two-fold: 1) to determine the sensors' ability to detect patterns with regards to input signals, and 2) to evaluate the efficacy of pressure sensor signals collected in relaying respiratory rate and respiratory patterns to monitor different thresholds of respiration rate and pattern which may include critical parameters dangerously outside of life sustaining norms.

Conditions

  • Apnea
  • Respiration

Interventions

DEVICE

Functional Bed Sheet

All participants sleep on the functional bed sheet that is placed under a normal bed sheet. The device collects pressure sensor information and informs on body position, respiration rate, and respiration patterns.
