Summary
This study project is initiated by the sleep research center of Taipei Medical University (TMU) and started from the database of sleep examination from more than ten thousand patients.
- By the cooperation with AI and statistic researchers to create the possible prediction model of sleep disorders and the improving strategies.
- Study to analyze the relationship of physiological parameters, environmental factors and sleep quality including the in-lab sleep test results, physical activity of daily life by wearable devices, voice quality and neurocognitive function.
- The patient’s subjective and objective sleep quality will be recorded and analyzed and be integrated to develop a cognitive behavior therapy for patients with sleep disorders.
Applications
- Integrating these results to build up a home-based prediction model and treatment strategies for sleep disorders.
- Creating innovative model for medical service to provide longitudinal follow up and personalized care based on the data retrieved by wearable devices, home-based IoTs monitoring environmental factors and subjective interaction with chatting robots.
- Business models by integrating medical service between different levels of clinical units, insurance plans and healthy behaviors.
Advantages
- A team with multi-disciplinary specialists for sleep medicine to conduct high quality clinical researches for patients with sleep disorders.
- Complete and continuously increasing database for data-mining to create prediction model for sleep related health technology and business.
