Line design of a monitoring and emergency network to help in the study and prevention of the sudden infant death syndrome

Abstract

Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), also known as cot death or crib death, is the first cause of death in children between the ages of 2 and 12 months. In this paper, we outline the creation of a monitoring and emergency net which applies the internet of things (IoT) to get real-time information regarding the cause of SIDS and turn the system into a prevention and early diagnosis tool. An algorithm coded in MATLAB R2013a (Mathworks) will be implemented to assess the patient's vitality, using fuzzy logic, and recollect information about the different phases of the disease.
