The construction and principle of operation of a biotechnical system designed to eliminate obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and its repercussions are discussed. The system makes it possible to prevent sudden death due to cardiac or respiratory arrest. It also allows pre-insult conditions to be detected and families and doctor to be warned about impending crisis.
