Air Mattress Design for Pressure Ulcers Prevention
摘要
This article presents an air mattress system designed to prevent pressure ulcers, which occur due to prolonged pressure on the skin. The primary objective of the project is to optimize the functionality of the air mattress block in conjunction with the existing pump block, enhancing its effectiveness in pressure ulcer prevention. The research emphasizes key risk factors, such as malnutrition and immobility, and underscores the importance of minimizing pressure on vulnerable areas through frequent repositioning or appropriate padding. By evaluating the outcomes of this innovative approach, we aim to develop an accessible method for preventing pressure ulcers and improving patient outcomes.
