The present invention relates to a real-time sleep disorder monitoring apparatus comprising: a main terminal body formed in a band form so as to be worn around the neck of a user; a sensor unit for detecting biometric data including breathing signals while the user wearing the main terminal body sleeps; a stimulus generation unit capable of applying a stimulus to the user wearing the main terminal body; and a terminal control unit for controlling the stimulus generation unit such that the stimulus is applied to the user if the biometric data detected by the sensor unit corresponds to a set stimulus application condition. Configured as such, the real-time sleep disorder monitoring apparatus, which is worn around the neck, can overcome disadvantages such as wearing inconvenience, which is caused by the many wires conventional polysomnography (PSG) devices have, and high costs resulting from the required absolute involvement of an expert, can particularly induce immediate escape from a critical sleep disorder through real-time monitoring during sleep, and thus provides the advantage of preventing a serious accident. |
