Automatic Controlled Pressure Sensor to Prevent Pressure Ulcer Obtained For Prolonged Hospitalization

The prototype model presented in this paper proposes a solution for evaluating and preventing pressure ulcers in long-lasting bedridden patients. The system integrates various sensors capable of monitoring critical factors such as pressure, temperature, and moisture. These sensors are embedded within the prototype bed, allowing for the collection of real-time data concerning the patient's condition and identification of potential risk factors associated with pressure ulcer development. The bed is equipped with switches that facilitate the monitoring of the patient's mobility and activities. These switches can detect movements, providing valuable information on changes in posture, frequency of turning, and overall activity level. Through data analysis, the system can assess the probability of pressure ulcer occurrence, taking into account factors such as prolonged pressure on specific areas, excessive moisture levels, or extreme temperatures. This prototype model shows significant promise in preventing pressure ulcers among long-lasting bedridden patients. Continuous monitoring of the patient's physiological parameters and activity levels enables healthcare providers to receive timely alerts and intervene appropriately to mitigate the risk of pressure ulcers. Additionally, the system can generate informative reports and offer valuable insights into the patient's condition, assisting healthcare professionals in making informed decisions regarding patient care and preventive measures. Overall, this prototype model provides a comprehensive approach to evaluating and preventing pressure ulcers in long-lasting bedridden patients. By leveraging sensor technology and real-time data analysis, it has the potential to improve patient outcomes, enhance the quality of care, and reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers in this vulnerable population.
