Apneal
After cancer, diabetes and coronary heart disease, sleep apnoea is the pathology with the greatest medico-economic impact on Western societies. Founded in 2021 by Séverin Benizri, Guillaume Cathelain and Bruno Sicre, the DeepTech start-up has developed a technology that enables advanced sleep examinations to be carried out at home, with diagnostic accuracy and using only the patient’s smartphone attached to the chest with an adhesive bandage. The application records patient movements and breathing sounds, which are then transformed by artificial intelligence into signals equivalent to those of an advanced clinical examination and enabling cardiac and respiratory events to be detected automatically. These are then summarised in the form of an examination report and sent to the healthcare professional via an ergonomic dashboard.
