Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sleep monitoring, and in particular to a sleep monitoring device based on a piezoelectric sensor and a sleep monitoring method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Sleep monitoring is an indispensable part of modern medical diagnosis. Currently, clinical sleep assessment generally uses a full-night polysomnogram (PSG) (including EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, etc.), and sleep staging is performed according to the R&K or AASM sleep staging criteria. At the same time, statistics are collected on arrhythmias, respiratory events, and awakening times, and sleep quality is assessed by analyzing the above multiple data.

[0003] Polysomnography obtains a rich variety of signals, but it requires various electrodes and numerous sensors to be attached to the patient, which puts a heavy physiological and psychological burden on the patient. In a sense, polysomnography monitoring itself interferes with sleep quality and affects the objectivity of the monitoring results. The contradiction between the high intrusion and high physiological load characteristics of polysomnography monitoring and the "people-oriented" no-load sleep monitoring needs is becoming increasingly prominent. The development of low physiological load or even no-load sleep monitoring technology has become an inevitable trend in the development of sleep medicine.

[0004] In addition to polysomnography, other sleep monitoring methods currently include polyencephalogram (EEG) monitoring, blood oxygen saturation monitoring, and body activity change recording. Polyencephalogram (EEG) equipment is expensive and complicated to operate, and requires a large number of electrodes to be attached to the subject's head, which seriously interferes with sleep. Blood oxygen saturation monitoring is generally used for sleep apnea monitoring and is of little value for sleep analysis of ordinary people. The inflatable micro-motion sensitive mattress used in the body activity change recording method is relatively large and not sensitive enough.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new method to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention
