Design and Verification of an Automated Pressure Mapping System and Modulating Air Cells for Pressure Ulcer Prevention

نویسندگان

چکیده

This research focuses on developing an intelligent air mattress prototype based commercially available alternating pressure mattresses to prevent ulcers. Force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) are installed under each cell measure interface values occurring at different parts of the body. These collected then used create maps, indicating areas high overpressure. The incorporates a smart pneumatic control system divided into seven functional areas: head, back, waist, buttocks, thighs, calves, and heels. All operations performed using LabVIEW software.

Design and Evaluation of a Pressure and Temperature Monitoring System for Pressure Ulcer Prevention

Introduction Pressure ulcers are tissue damages resulting from blood flow restriction, which occurs when the tissue is exposed to high pressure for a long period of time. These painful sores are common in patients and elderly, who spend extended periods of time in bed or wheelchair. In this study, a continuous pressure and temperature monitoring system was developed for pressure ulcer preventio...

Using Air Cushion in the Prevention of Occipital Pressure Ulcer in Children Undergoing Heart Surgery

Background & Aims:The prevalence of congenital heart (CHD) defects is about 6-8 per 1000 live births, more than half of which will require surgery during the first year of life. In Iran, the rate of diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases is increasing, so that the mortality caused by them in the intervals of 1989 to 2006 has increased from 27 to 30%. CHD accounts for almost one-third of all conge...
