Detection and Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Example inventions detect an occurrence of disturbance during a sleep period of a user. Examples receive data corresponding to a single parameter of the user during the sleep period, determine patterns in the data, and based on the patterns, determine a sleep disturbance severity index (“SDSI”) over the sleep period.
Eartip and a wearable device including an eartip
The present disclosure provides an ear tip. The ear tip includes a main body, a first conductive element at least partially embedded in the main body, a second conductive element at least partially embedded in the main body and spaced apart from the first conductive element. The main body includes a central portion having a top and a tail portion extending from the top of the central portion. The first conductive element is proximal to the top of the central portion and the second conductive element is distal from the top of the central portion. A wearable device is also disclosed.
Hearing device for providing physiological information, and method of its operation
A hearing device configured to be worn at an ear of a user may include a sensor unit configured to provide sensor data, the sensor unit comprising a biometric sensor configured to provide biometric data included in the sensor data; and a processor configured to determine a physiological parameter from the sensor data, the physiological parameter indicative of a physiological property of the user.
