The SENSIMAT for Wheelchairs is the first
and only active, intelligent pressure management tool that can be used in
combination with existing wheelchair cushions. It has an algorithm monitors pressure sensors back
to the seat and pushes this data to wireless mobile device.
The usage of this
special device can help prevent pressure sores for wheelchair users, because
major challenge can lead to risks of infection, being bedridden,
hospitalization and mortality. Using the data in the phone devices then it will
alert the companion app of pressure distributions, relief patterns, and can
push reminders to shift position.
It’s been validated at the Toronto
Rehabilitation Institute and will continue its testing in research centres and
wheelchair users. Meanwhile, I was inspired with this person who is a
wheelchair users and she did a amazingly act – hope you enjoy watching all
these.
