MeltdownMonitor for Autism

Helps prevent meltdowns and restlessness for people with severe ASD

MeltdownMonitor: An Essential Tool for Autism Care

MeltdownMonitor is designed to support individuals on the autism spectrum, including those with nonverbal autism. This innovative app helps caregivers understand and prevent autistic meltdowns by monitoring physiological signals (heart rate changes) that may indicate heightened restlessness before the onset of a meltdown.

With MeltdownMonitor, caregivers of individuals with autism can configure alerts for specific heart rate thresholds, receiving immediate notifications when potential issues are detected. This functionality is crucial in providing timely interventions that can prevent meltdowns and ensure the well-being of those with autism.

Features:

• Real-Time Monitoring: Track heart rate data in real time to quickly identify signs of anxiety or distress commonly experienced by individuals with autism.

• Historical Data Analysis: Utilize detailed charts that log date- and time-stamped heart rate information, offering valuable insights for applied behavior analysis (ABA) and positive behavior support (PBS) strategies.

• Customizable Alerts: Configure sensitivity thresholds for abnormal restlessness or the potential start of a meltdown, based on analysis of previous data to provide individualised proactive care for autism spectrum condition.

• Wear OS Integration: A companion app for Google Wear OS allows you to use the default option "Install on phone and watch" to simplify the setup.
