Abstract

The TeleResp Project (2007–2011), adopted following the call 2007 ANR-TecSan, was led by RBI firm in partnership with R.-Poincaré hospital of Garches and the Sleep Laboratory of Grenoble hospital. The main objective of the project was to develop a wireless device for measuring and monitoring respiratory signals (impedance plethysmography), oxygen saturation, body position, mouth pressure and limb movements. TeleResp is devoted to be used at home: 1) for monitoring mechanical ventilation in patients with neuromuscular disease and 2) for diagnosis of sleep apnea syndrome. The innovative aspect of this project is its use at home, in a familiar environment with minimal constraints due to measurement devices. The device will be tested and evaluated by the medical teams. The project aims also to build specific softwares starting from signals analysis, data fusion from several sensors and identification of pertinent information. Meeting a real market demand and carrying a strong marketing desire, the main stake of the TeleResp project is the industrial development and the marketing of a new noninvasive medical device using embedded sensors and a wireless technology making it autonomous, easy to use, and innovative in home monitoring and diagnosis of respiratory disorders during sleep which constitute a real problem of public health.
