Epilepsy Bed Sensor
Sleep Easy with Smart Seizure Detection
Automatic alerts and response provide reassurance for users and their families that help is always close at hand.
Chiptech have partnered with trusted provider Alert-iT to develop an integrated, safe solution for people of any age, living with epilepsy. The Adi Alert-it Epilepsy Bed Sensor is designed to enhance the safety for those living independently, in residential care, or assisted- living environments who may be at risk of experiencing a seizure. By providing a direct notification of seizure activity, the sensor enables rapid support, reducing the likelihood of harm.
How the Adi Epilepsy Bed Sensor works
When an Alert-iT bed monitor detects either tonic–clonic, partial, or a generalised seizure, the Alert-iT control unit featuring Chiptech’s Adi technology communicates wirelessly with a SEVEN base unit to raise an alert.
The bed sensor is placed under the user’s mattress, so it doesn’t disturb their sleep. It communicates to the control unit wirelessly, so it can be located for convenience and discretion.
When the bed sensor detects an event, the control unit signals to SEVEN to send an alert to either the SmartCare Response app for family or carer responders, or to a professional monitoring service.
The responders or operator can communicate through SEVEN to check on the person’s condition and coordinate an appropriate response, which could be contacting family, carers, neighbours, or emergency services if needed.
Smart Features for Safer Independent Living
When the Alert-iT Companion Mini is placed under the mattress, it detects the repetitive fine movements associated with seizures, differentiating them from normal sleep activities.
Get support at the time of an event occurring, without the need to press a button, or call emergency services.
Radio frequency (RF) test transmissions are sent to the sensor every 7 hours, ensuring a consistently robust wireless connection.
Compact and lightweight, the bed sensor is discreet and easy to install. Being battery-powered, there is no need for it to be near an electrical outlet.
Sends an alert when the battery level reaches 20% capacity for timely battery replacement to ensure continuous sensor functionality.
Maintains a comprehensive log of activity, including system statistics, total RF transmissions, system events, and the number of days the system has been operational.
Who is it for?
Adi Epilepsy Bed Sensor is for people of all ages who live with epilepsy and would benefit from an automated emergency response system to summon help when a seizure is detected in bed.
- For people of any age living alone for additional reassurance and assistance after a seizure.
- For parents and caregivers knowing assistance is called automatically so you can focus on supporting your loved one or dependant during a seizure.
- For people in assisted–living environments where carers need to make routine checks at night in case a resident experiences a seizure. As the alarm is raised automatically, users can sleep undisturbed and carers only need to respond when an event occurs.
Additional Supports
A monitored device that prompts the person to take their medication. If medication is not taken at the right time, an alert is sent via the SEVEN base unit.
An easy to wear pendant with fall detection technology that can support seizure detection during the day. If a fall and impact is detected, Pearl Advanced communicates with a SEVEN base unit to send an alert.
A mobile personal emergency response system with fall technology that sends an alert if a fall and impact is detected. With GPS locating functionality, a GO supports independence and confidence when away from home.
