Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, by other embodiments, the present invention can be used in other ways to test and monitor CSA where the problem is the destabilization of the body's feedback mechanisms controlling breathing rather than airway obstruction

Embodiment Construction

[0050] see figure 1 , the first embodiment of the present invention utilizes a combination of Figure 4 to Figure 7 The device 12 shown is identical to the device 110 of the mandibular advancement device 112 .

[0051] Such as Figure 4 to Figure 7 As shown, the mandibular advancement device 12 includes a curved anterior maxillary abutment portion 15 mounted to an intraoral body portion 65 via an extraoral member portion 18 . The arms 20 on the extraoral member 18 engage into the intraoral body portion 65 . The effective length of the arm 20 can be manually adjusted by the action of an adjustment wheel 60 , the center hole 61 of which is in threaded engagement with a thread 62 on the arm 20 . The effective height of the extraoral member 18 can be adjusted by an angularly adjustable extraoral adjustment device 55 which adjusts the angle formed by the articulation of the middle of the extraoral member 18 .

[0052] The generally banana-shaped anterior mandibular abutment 25 ...

Abstract

A method of monitoring the status of a body of a person during sleep, said method comprising: retaining in or adjacent the mouth or nose of said person an electronic detector which detects indicationsof the state of said body, wirelessly transmitting a first data stream representing said indications to a data receiving means, transmitting said first data stream from said data receiving means to adata processing means, processing said first data stream within said data processing means to produce a second data stream representing said indications, or conclusion drawn from said indications, and displaying a visual representation of said indications or conclusions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and a device for monitoring a person's sleep state. In addition to its more general application, the present invention is particularly suited for use with intraoral mandibular advancement devices for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. Background technique [0002] There is a need for a low-cost and easy-to-use device by which a person's physical state can be monitored during sleep in order to record and / or provide an alert for periods of time when reduced breathing is being experienced. [0003] Sleep apnea is a major concern for many people. The two main types of sleep apnea are obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA). To treat OSA, many different types of devices have been proposed and are in use for advancing a person's jaw during sleep in order to provide a more open airway. It has proven difficult to provide confirmation that such devices work and effectively provide the benef...
