Benefit For Apnea Monitor using Stretch sensor


Based on the objective on this project, we will propose method to using stretch sensor to apply them for this project. Actually this project also use as backup apnea monitor and has benefit to families have Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) of their babies.

 It because apnea project design have a lot of advantage and easier to use compare with machine in hospital. This project not measure respiratory rate or heart rate, it only detect contraction movement of chest baby. Besides that,  it just simple project compare with machine before this .

Based on normal apnea project ,that machine have more parameter to check such as heart rate, oxygen level, and respiratory rate. Besides that, placing multiple leads and tape on their skin can lead to further damage, such as a rash or even a burn from the tape being repetitively pulled off and put back on. So it’s very difficult for the parent have not bravery to treat their baby. But, for this project only need stretch sensor, because this apnea monitor only prevent apnea by detect contraction movement of baby chest Therefore this machine will easier to use and not causes pain of baby skin.
