Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, in cases where medical personnel should intervene, these systems do not provide support for identifying the actual person who should be notified in order to optimize human resources
Finally, all alerts are issued only when the risk of a fall is very high and the event is imminent, at which point the chances of providing effective intervention to actually prevent a fall are reduced

Embodiment Construction

[0038] exist figure 1 , an overview of a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown diagrammatically. The embodiment comprises a device 1 for monitoring an individual 2 . Individual 2 is especially likely to be a patient in a hospital bed. Hence, in the following, individual 2 will be referred to as patient 2, but individual 2 may also be a resident of a nursing home, a resident of a psychiatric ward, or an individual 2 receiving home care, etc. The principle based on the device 1 is that the risk of falling from the bed associated with the patient 2 under monitoring is determined by both a non-modifiable risk factor and a modifiable risk factor, such as patient 2 Modifiable risk factors such as Patient 2's restlessness when occupying a bed speed, level of confusion, type and speed of movement (eg, erratic movement).

[0039] The device 1 ensures that the calculation of the risk score associated with each patient 2 is based on the evaluation of all the above risk facto...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a device (60) for adaptive intervention with an individual (2) in connection with a bed fail risk of the individual (2), the device (60) comprising a first port (70) for obtaining personal data (120) of the individual (2) and a total risk score (114) of the individual (2), an intervention unit (15) for determining a projection regarding an imminent bed fall of theindividual (2) and a timeframe for an intervention to prevent the bed fall of the individual (2) based on the obtained data (120, 114), and a second port (71) for outputting an intervention signal based to the projection and the obtained data (120, 114).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device for monitoring an individual, especially a patient in a hospital or under home care, adapted to allow a prediction of an imminent fall of a person out of bed. The device issues an alert when several associated risk factors exceed predefined thresholds. The invention also relates to a system incorporating the aforementioned apparatus and a method of monitoring an individual to predict a fall from a bed. Background technique [0002] Falls are the most common adverse event reported in hospitals, are the leading cause of hospital-acquired injuries, and often prolong or complicate hospital stays. A review of observational studies in acute care hospitals indicated that fall rates ranged from 1.3 to 8.9 falls / 1000 patient days, with higher rates occurring in wards focused on geriatric care, neurology and rehabilitation. Despite extensive research on fall risk factors and the development of many fall risk devices, t...
