did you sleep well? "I can't sleep at night, I can't get up in the morning" has become a "big problem" that plagued many 80s and 90s! Hair loss, dark circles, and mental stress at work are all the causes of insomnia!
On March 21, just past, it was the 18th World Sleep Day. According to the sleep survey published by the China Sleep Research Association, the incidence of insomnia in Chinese adults was 38.2%. Many people have begun to monitor their sleep quality. Understand your sleep habits. In fact, in the field of sleep monitoring, small sensors are playing a huge role, for example, in the field of modern medical monitoring, for medical personnel to monitor the respiratory frequency, heart rate, body movement, deep sleep, shallow sleep time and other parameters of the patient's sleep. Not only that, the sensor can also help the medical personnel to carry on the customization to the patient, the long-distance physical index monitoring.
Come and see how Tyco Electronics (TE Connectivity) sensors play a big role in medical surveillance.
Invasive blood pressure monitoring, thanks to the 1620 pressure sensor
We often say "blood pressure" refers to the pressure exerted by the circulating blood on the blood vessel wall, and the arteries and veins have different pressures. The "Not Invasive Blood Pressure" measurement method is usually used for physical examination.
BUT! In many cases, NIBP is not accurate enough. In intensive care units, emergency rooms, and operating rooms, doctors need to monitor patients' blood pressure in real time through Invasive Blood Pressure measurements. IBP measurements provide real-time and reliable blood pressure values, which is a crucial reference for critically ill patients for surgery and diagnosis.
TE's 1620 pressure sensor is a fully piezoelectric silicon piezoresistive sensor for invasive blood pressure monitoring. The sensor is designed for automatic assembly equipment and can be placed directly into the housing of a disposable sphygmomanometer. A plastic cap attached to the ceramic substrate provides a simple method of assembly while protecting the sensing element. The 1620 pressure sensor helps health workers accurately monitor the physical indicators of critically ill patients. Even if the blood pressure drops to 30-40 mmHg, the IBP can accurately detect and provide appropriate medical measures.
Oxygen Tester - SpO2 Blood Oxygen Sensor
Blood pressure, like blood pressure, is also an important human index. Low blood oxygen levels can burden cellular functions including the heart and brain. This is crucial in critical areas and post-operative recovery. TE's SpO2 oxygen sensor element provides first-rate accuracy in blood oxygen saturation detection.
SpO2 blood oxygen sensor
With more than 27 years of proven reliability and expertise, TE designs leading-edge, flexible sensors to accommodate a wide range of wavelengths. TE's ability to provide components and complete sensors meets the demanding needs of high precision, high durability, and high performance pulse oximeter applications.
Reliable and accurate, body temperature sensor protects the health
Body temperature is one of the most basic and important indicators in home health care or medical testing. In addition to routine skin temperature measurements, it is sometimes necessary to measure the core temperature of the body in medical treatment.
TE's extensive temperature sensors help physicians obtain real-time patient temperature data, such as NTC medical monitoring probes, disposable NTC temperature probes, infrared thermopile temperature sensors, and digital temperature sensors (TSYS series).
TE has extensive medical OEM equipment manufacturing experience, high precision and long-term stability applicable to the medical field, and passed ISO9001, ISO13485 certification and the United States Food and Drug Administration certification. TE has a broad portfolio of sensor products that provide one-stop manufacturing for partners.
These are some of the applications of sensors in the medical field. In recent years, with the continuous upgrading of sensor technology, the sensors have had many innovations in the field of medical care and home care.
Innovative Application of Piezoelectric Thin Film Sensors on Sleep Sensors
Remember that people mentioned above are paying more attention to the quality of sleep?
TE's piezoelectric film sensor 10184000-01 can be used in sleep monitoring to help monitor parameters such as breathing frequency, heart rate, body motion, deep sleep, and light sleep time.
Piezoelectric film sensor 10184000-01
Piezoelectric film has many advantages such as thin and light, good flexibility, low density, light weight, and good mechanical toughness. The high toughness plastic film can be made into different thicknesses and areas and can be directly attached to the surface of the machine without affecting the machine. Pieces of mechanical movement. The piezoelectric film also has a wide frequency band, wide dynamic range, and high voltage sensitivity characteristics. Another major advantage of piezoelectric membranes is the low acoustic impedance, which is closer to the acoustic impedance of water and body tissues, facilitating the more efficient transduction of acoustic signals in water and human tissue.
Unlike previous sleep monitoring, the piezoelectric film sensor does not need to be worn on the body, and even just installed under the mattress, it can sensitively monitor the data, it will open a new era of sleep monitoring!
