Through various studies, it has been confirmed that sitting in one position for prolonged periods of time can cause a variety of health problems, from lower back discomfort to cardiovascular disease. In addition, people with spinal cord injuries are significantly prone to develop pressure ulcers, which can have fatal consequences. This article proposes the implementation of sensing-mat technology to prevent these conditions by redistributing pressure points while sitting. It also includes an analysis of pressure points in different postures, revealing significantly high levels of pressure, with up to three critical points detected in the buttocks and adjacent areas.

摘要

Through various studies, it has been confirmed that sitting in one position for prolonged periods of time can cause a variety of health problems, from lower back discomfort to cardiovascular disease. In addition, people with spinal cord injuries are significantly prone to develop pressure ulcers, which can have fatal consequences. This article proposes the implementation of sensing-mat technology to prevent these conditions by redistributing pressure points while sitting. It also includes an analysis of pressure points in different postures, revealing significantly high levels of pressure, with up to three critical points detected in the buttocks and adjacent areas.
