AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current techniques fail to precisely characterize sleep patterns and detect changes in sleep habits, particularly in vulnerable individuals, leading to inadequate assessment of sleep quality and its impact on autonomy.

Method used

A method using user equipment connected to a communications network to determine a sleep disturbance indicator by comparing current sleep signals with reference sleep signals and issuing alerts based on decision criteria, incorporating artificial intelligence to analyze physiological parameters and identify deviations from normal or ideal sleep patterns.

Benefits of technology

Enables robust estimation of sleep quality and autonomy by detecting changes in sleep patterns, allowing for timely alerts and personalized recommendations to maintain restorative sleep, thereby supporting tele-vigilance services and improving health outcomes.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for monitoring the sleep of a user using at least one user device located in proximity to the user and / or worn thereby, said at least one user device being connected to a communication network. This method comprises: - determining at least one curve representative of a time sequence of sleep stages during a current time period, which is referred to as the current sleep signal; - obtaining an indicator of disturbance of the sleep of the user, this comprising a first comparison of the current sleep signal to a set of curves representative of time sequences of sleep stages determined for a reference time period, which are referred to as reference sleep signals; - making a decision as to whether or not to send an alert notification to the communication network, this decision being made depending on the indicator of disturbance of sleep and on at least one decision criterion.
