Pressure sensor assembly and associated method for preventing the development of pressure injuries

摘要

A pressure wound prevention system comprising at least one management device which comprises at least one user input apparatus, at least one output mechanism, at least one data input for connecting with a pressure sensor assembly and a processor configured to measure elapsed time, to receive pressure data from the data input and to present an output via the output mechanism. The system may be modular. A method for preventing the development of pressure wounds of a subject is also presented.
