Benefits of technology

This patent is about an improved system and method for treating sleep disorders using bed partner therapy. The system helps couples work together to address sleep issues and can track the impact on each other's sleep using wearable devices or other data. It can also motivate patients with sleep disorders and help them stick to their treatment plan. The system can use different types of data to diagnose and treat sleep disorders, and can make patients aware of the benefits of adhering to treatment.

Problems solved by technology

Poor therapy adherence remains one of the biggest barriers to effective treatment for sleep disorders and sleep disordered breathing disorders.
Prior studies report that a patient's snoring often leads to multiple adverse effects to the bed partner including sleep disorders, such as insomnia, along with an effect on overall marital satisfaction.

Abstract

A system includes facilitating therapy with couples working together for perceiving shared positive benefits by treating sleep disordered breathing issues. Spousal influence can greatly influence and motivate the patient in continuing the therapy. Moreover, through monitoring bed partners' sleep using wearable data, causal information about whose sleep is affecting whom can be inferred. Users can be prompted to seek diagnosis and treatment for sleep disordered breathing conditions and can be used to help coach around therapy adherence.
