“The installation of this epilepsy sensor is very simple and its daily use is simplified to the maximum to facilitate the operation of any user. The team is well prepared, both for the use in homes and for installation in residencessince it has the necessary peripherals to send an alarm remotely, via radio to a pager and/or a monitoring unit or via SMS”stressed Juanma Bridgepresident of , during a demonstration day held the municipal center of San Inazio-Ibarrekolanda in Bilbao.
is an innovator small size bed sensor that, unlike other sensors on the market, offers a high degree of sensitivitywhich makes it possible to detect not only the repeated movements caused by a severe seizure, but also also detects mild seizures that occur during sleep, in cases of nocturnal epilepsies. It can be configured so that when it detects the appearance of a convulsive attack it sends an alarm.
