AI Technical Summary
The lack of standardized procedures for preventing pressure ulcers in obese patients during their hospital stay leads to a high rate of pressure ulcers. Existing methods of turning over patients rely on nurses' experience and are not scientific enough.
By employing a separate pressure sensing unit and a tissue hypoxia monitoring unit, combined with a risk grading and nursing decision-making module, a personalized turning strategy is generated, including the turning direction, support position and frequency. The sensor density and turning frequency are dynamically adjusted, taking into account the impact of surgical wounds.
It enables real-time quantification and dynamic management of pressure ulcer risk, reduces missed and misjudged cases, ensures standardized nursing care, and lowers the incidence of pressure ulcers, especially improving the safety of care for obese patients.
