The outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) resulted in the clinical decision that reduced direct contact is optimal, especially for senior citizens residing nursing homes. A smart pillow adapted Remote Healthcare System presented this paper, whose core a Bluetooth (BT) host equipped with temperature and pressure sensors. measurement Core Body Temperature (CBT) from perspective heat transfer f...

The cervical pillow was designed to reduce the severity of snoring and sleep-disordered breathing in individuals with the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). Snoring, sleeprelated breathing pauses, and excessive daytime sleepiness characterize this sleep disorder. The OSAS diagnosis is confirmed by a respiratory disturbance index (RDI, apneahypopnea index) ≥5 events/hr during polysomnograp...

The duration of sleep and the position of the face while resting on a pillow have a negative impact on the facial skin appearance and may lead to the formation of sleep wrinkles. Sleep lines occur when there is repetitive, long-term tension on the facial skin, which pushes or pulls the skin in a direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the muscles of the face. These lines tend to be ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Airway safety may be provided with endotracheal intubation especially for oral procedures because of some potential risks such as aspiration of secretion or foreign bodies. In this study, we aimed to determine whether placing a pillow under the occiput may facilitate endotracheal intubation in non-cooperative children whose extensive dental treatments were planned to ta...

The aim of the project is to develop intelligent pillow to monitor the heart rate by using fiber optical sensor. The research is focused upon allowing more automation of patient care, an especially important matter for the elder population or bedridden patients, which is a rapidly growing fraction of much of the world population today. The fiber-optical sensor is built into pillow. Patients can...
