Methods for Detecting Abnormal Ventilation in Children - the Case Study of 13-Years old Pitt-Hopkins Girl.

We present contactless technology measuring abnormal ventilation and compare it with polysomnography (PSG). A 13-years old girl with Pitt-Hopkins syndrome presented hyperpnoea periods with apneic spells. The PSG was conducted simultaneously with Emfit movement sensor (Emfit, Finland) and video camera with depth sensor (NEL, Finland).

Diagnosis and surgical intervention of acute appendicitis secondary to enterobius vermicularis: case report.

Acute appendicitis is the most common cause of acute abdominal pain in the pediatric population. The physiopathology is secondary to luminal obstruction of the appendix by several causes, among these, one of the rarest is due to parasitosis by Enterobius vermicularis in 0.005-3 %.

Assessment of support vector machines and convolutional neural networks to detect snoring using Emfit mattress.

Snoring (SN) is an essential feature of sleep breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In this study, we evaluate epoch-based snoring detection methods using an unobtrusive electromechanical film transducer (Emfit) mattress sensor using polysomnography recordings as a reference. Two different approaches were investigated: a support vector machine (SVM) classifier fed with a subset of spectral features and convolutional neural network (CNN) fed with spectrograms.
