Intelligent Mattress Cover for Decubitus Prevention
Projects


Information
InnovationLab developed a intelligent mattress cover for real-time patient monitoring. The integration of printed pressure sensors and healthcare software enables dramatic risk-reduction in dangerous pressure ulcers, promoting better care in an acute-care.
- Allows caregivers to monitor patients remotely in real-time instead of requiring them to
examine a patient’s entire body for pressure ulcers every thirty minutes to two hours—
improving efficiency and saving personnel costs
- By using local AI models and on-board computation no sensitive data leaves the device. Only critical alerts are relayed, providing patient monitoring around the clock while reserving privacy.
- Reduced incidence of pressure ulcers leads to decreased risk of costly lawsuits against healthcare professionals.
- Environmentally friendly disposable product thanks to organic electronics
