Embodiment Construction

[0045] The same reference numbers are used in the drawings to refer to identical or functionally similar parts.

[0046] figure 1 The sleep trainer 1 is shown in a perspective view. The sleep trainer 1 is arranged for improving the quality of sleep of a person.

[0047] The sleep trainer 1 comprises a cuff 2 (also known as a waist belt, chest strap or chest strap) arranged to be worn around a person's chest. The cuff comprises two electrodes 21 , 22 at the cuff inner side 201 for performing chest impedance measurements. Chest impedance measurements can be used to determine heart rate or respiration measurements. Electrodes 21 , 22 are attached to the strip 20 . Each electrode 21 , 22 has an electrode distal end connected to a sensor pad 212 , 222 . The sensor pads 212, 222 are positioned on the outer surface at the inner side of the cuff so as to achieve skin contact when the sleep trainer 1 is worn. Each electrode 21 , 22 has a proximal electrode end that is exposed at ...

Abstract

Sleep trainer (1) comprising a band (2) with two electrodes (21), (22) for carrying out an impedance measurement and a monitor (3) for receiving a measurement signal. The band has a band pocket (23).An electrical connection is obtained by inserting the monitor (3) into the band pocket (23). Band contact points (210), (220) are provided inside the band pocket (23). Monitor contact points (31), (32) are provided at an external surface of the monitor housing (30). The monitor contact points are flat and hardly protrude above the monitor housing. The band pocket (23) prevents a lateral movement of the monitor and a band pocket wall (231) exerts a pressing force to keep the monitor contact points (31), (32) in an abutting engagement with the band contact points (210), (220). Advantageously, the sleep trainer provides a high level of wearing comfort which contributes to a sleep disorder treatment compliance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sleep trainer. The sleep trainer is a device arranged to provide an alarm during a person's sleep in response to an impedance measurement. In particular, the present invention relates to a sleep position trainer. The sleep position trainer is arranged to provide an alarm during sleep of the person to cause a change in sleep position. Furthermore, the invention relates to an impedance measuring cuff for a sleep trainer and a monitor for a sleep trainer for receiving an impedance measurement signal. Background technique [0002] WO98 / 41279 discloses a feedback system that can be used in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The feedback system includes a garment with electrocardiographic electrodes and sensors attached to the garment. The garment is in the form of a shirt and is worn over the torso of the patient to be monitored. The sensor is in direct contact with the skin. The sensors generate signals in r...
