uniqueness of the SERA

apnea detection and classification.

Apneas of prematurity are highly prevalent, affecting nearly 100% of newborns under 28 weeks and around 50% of those at 33–34 weeks gestation1. These episodes pose a serious risk to neonatal health, often leading to critical oxygen desaturation and potentially long-term neurodevelopmental complications2,3. Both central and obstructive apneas are commonly observed in preterm infants and require distinct treatment strategies4.

intelligent apnea monitoring.

The algorithm is designed to detect early signs of apnea and assist in classifying central versus obstructive types. Which each require distinct clinical treatment. By capturing the neural respiratory drive directly through diaphragm sEMG, it shortens the time between apnea occurrence and effective intervention. Compared to conventional methods that rely on secondary symptoms like oxygen desaturation or bradycardia, this approach enables faster, more targeted clinical responses.
