Abstract:
An apparatus for monitoring a sleep parameter of a user includes an adhesive pad configured to conform to a surface of the user and a flexible element coupled to the adhesive pad. The flexible element includes a conductive fabric, and exhibits a modified electrical property in response to an applied force. The apparatus also includes a power source electrically coupled to the flexible element, and an electrical circuit electrically coupled to the power source and the flexible conductive element. The electrical circuit is configured to detect, during use, a change in an electrical property of the flexible element.

Claim (Index 23):
A method, comprising:\n adhering an apparatus to a skin of a user, the apparatus including a conductive element configured to exhibit a modified electrical property in response to an applied force and an optical sensor assembly configured to emit light toward the surface of the user and to detect reflected light from the surface of the user; applying an electric current to the conductive element; measuring a change in electrical property of the conductive element when the apparatus is adhered to the skin of the user; calculating, based on the measured change in electrical property of the conductive element, a distortion of the conductive element; and determining a respiratory effort of the user based on the distortion of the conductive element.
