[0070] In this embodiment, the suitable sleeping position refers to the sleeping position that the elderly can use determined according to their actual physical condition. For example, for hypertension caused by sleep apnea syndrome, it is not recommended to lie on the back, but lying on the side is better; for the elderly with coronary heart disease, sleeping on the right side or lying flat can make more blood flow to the right side, reducing the burden on the heart; for varicose veins, slightly raise the feet, so that the horizontal position exceeds the height of the heart, promotes blood return to the heart, and avoids congestion of the veins in the lower limbs; for gastroesophageal reflux disease, do not lie down immediately after a meal, and when lying flat, slightly raise the head, or raise the head of the bed by 15 to 20 centimeters; for stroke patients, do not maintain the same sleeping position for a long time, especially do not always press on the affected side, and try to change the sleeping direction frequently to avoid bedsores.

[0071] In this embodiment, the gradual adaptive adjustment refers to slowly adjusting the movable components of the nursing bed in the area of ​​the bed board to be adjusted to achieve the purpose of adjusting the sleeping posture of the elderly.

[0072] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: the present invention determines multiple applicable sleeping positions and multiple sleeping position switching processes for the elderly based on the preset health data of the elderly, determines the sleeping position that is conducive to the elderly's physical diseases according to the actual physical condition of the elderly, and then collects multiple bed data through multiple built-in sensors to obtain bed perception data, and analyzes the bed perception data to obtain perception results, and performs real-time perception monitoring of the elderly's sleep conditions, which is conducive to discovering physical abnormalities during the elderly's sleep; finally, based on the perception results, the optimal sleeping position switching process is determined, and according to the optimal sleeping position switching process, the bed board area to be mobilized is gradually adaptively adjusted, and the elderly's bed posture is switched to the current optimal switching applicable sleeping position, so as to realize adaptive adjustment of the elderly's sleeping position and personalized care during sleep, ensure that the elderly always maintain a relatively safe and comfortable sleeping position, and help improve the elderly's sleep quality.

[0080] In this embodiment, the position where blood circulation is easily obstructed refers to maintaining a certain sleeping position for a long time, which may cause compression of organs or blood vessels, resulting in poor blood circulation or physical discomfort (for example, numbness in hands and feet, etc.).

[0081] In this embodiment, the preset health data refers to the caregiver manually inputting or importing information synchronization of the elderly person's medical records to determine the type of disease the elderly person suffers from. According to the disease, the elderly person's contraindicated sleeping positions and suitable sleeping positions are determined and screened from a variety of sleeping positions to obtain a variety of sleeping positions that are in line with the elderly person's actual physical condition.

[0082] In this embodiment, the sleeping posture adjustment association refers to the transformation order relationship of each body part of each sleeping posture elderly person, for example, the transition from left side lying to right side lying must first go through the elderly supine stage. If supine is also an applicable posture for the elderly, the association between supine and left side lying is stronger than that of right side lying, and the switching order of left side lying to right side lying is left side lying → supine → right side lying. If the current lying posture is supine, in the switching order, it can be supine → right side lying → supine → left side lying, or supine → right side lying → supine → right side lying, and when in a certain type of lying posture, the posture adjustment within the lying posture category can also be completed according to the adjustment of the angle of a certain part of the elderly. The lying posture described in the present invention includes but is not limited to supine, side lying (including right side lying and left side lying) and prone lying. In the process of lying on the back, a variety of supine postures are obtained due to different heights of the head or legs; similarly, due to the movable components of the nursing bed, there are multiple angles of side lying, and the positions of the elderly's limbs are different, resulting in a variety of side lying postures.
