Expertise: Sleep Assessment

SAM3 Expertise Areas: Sleep Assessment

Sleep is important for health and well-being. The assessment of sleep and issues that affect sleep is an area of extensive research by SAM3 researchers.

Sleep assessment

  • Bed occupancy and bed exit assessment
  • Restlessness during sleep
  • Breathing assessment (respiration rate, apnea etc)
  • Wandering
