Abstract
A method for detecting deglutition includes steps of: generating in the computer memory a number of addresses perfectly identifiable from a start point on which electrical transients received from the sensor element will be recorded; shooting the first computer memory scan upon receiving the signal of the first suction movement detected by the cutaneous electrodes or pressure transducers; recording electrical transients of records from the microphone or movement sensors at the different memory addresses: consider as a fresh start for recording electrical transients from the microphone every new signal of a new suction movement; averaging the electrical transients of records from the sensor element at different memory addresses; compare averaged electrical transients during apneas to normal breathing (to show that the ingested milk was swallowed during the times when the infant develops apneas). The device includes: a respiration sensor element; a suction sensor element; and a deglutition sensor element.
