Monitoring for Sleep-Related Threat: A Pilot Study of the Sleep Associated Monitoring Index (SAMI)

Psychosomatic Medicine, 2004
The aims of this pilot study were: 1) to establish the reliability and validity of a new self-report instrument designed to index monitoring for sleep-related threat; 2) to determine the presence of ten monitoring types proposed in a recent cognitive model of insomnia and to examine the relationship between monitoring for sleep-related threat and ...

Demonstration of sleep monitoring and caregiver displays for depression monitoring

Proceedings of the 2nd Conference on Wireless Health, 2011
We demonstrate a subset of the components used in a real-time depression monitoring product for the home. This system runs 24/7 and can potentially detect the early signs of a depression episode, as well as track progress managing a depressive illness.

CURRENT AND FUTURE METHODOLOGY FOR MONITORING SLEEP

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1998
Sleep is much more than simply decreased consciousness, and the distinctions among the stages of non-REM and REM sleep are of significance for the polysomnographer because of their implications for physiologic events. The rules for staging sleep are essentially unchanged since their original description in 1968.

Sleep Apnea Monitoring for Smart Healthcare

IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2018
Vocational safety problems have been causing millions of workers dead even with related safety policies launched. Sleep apnea is one of the main causes that renders insufficient sleep and thus becomes a high potential risk of working accidents. To assess sleep apnea, sleep stage monitoring and classification is the main and accurate way.

Novel technique for sleep apnea monitoring

2015 IEEE 12th International Conference on Wearable and Implantable Body Sensor Networks (BSN), 2015
Sleep Apnea is a well-documented and chronic problem that can result in various life threatening disorders. Detecting and diagnosing sleep apnea requires a long duration sleep study that makes use of various sensor based monitors. The need for long duration sleep studies at a special care provider facility and lack of simple portable monitors result in

Wi-Sleep: Contactless Sleep Monitoring via WiFi Signals

2014 IEEE Real-Time Systems Symposium, 2014
Is it possible to leverage WiFi signals collected in bedrooms to monitor a person's sleep? In this paper, we show that with off-the-shelf WiFi devices, fine-grained sleep information like a person's respiration, sleeping postures and rollovers can be successfully extracted.

An unobtrusive sleep monitoring system for the human sleep behaviour understanding

2016 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom), 2016
Sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout our life. Getting enough quality sleep at the right times can help protect mental and physical health, quality of life, and safety. Emerging wearable devices allow people to measure and keep track of sleep duration, patterns, and quality.

Monitoring Adult Patients with Sleep Apnea

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1990
It can be said that there are two methods of evaluating certain aspects of sleep. PSM is more traditional and uses older equipment to assess a full scope of sleep disorders in a rather expensive and inconvenient way. Computerized home monitoring is a more modern way of monitoring sleep using improving technology, probably most applicable to snoring ...

[The role of actigraphy in monitoring sleep and sleep disorders].

Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi, 2015
The use of actigraphy, which can be used to estimate sleep-wake patterns from activity levels, has become common in sleep research. Actigraphy is a simple, cost-effective and non-invasive method for healthcare providers and researchers to assess patients sleep quality and screen for potential sleep disorders in recent years.
