Breathing: It just happens automatically. The same can be said for shifting your position in a chair - when you are uncomfortable, your brain automatically signals for movement. For wheelchair users, relieving seat pressure is no longer an automatic process. Users need to actively undergo pressure relief every 15 to 30 minutes by performing shifts/lifts in order to prevent adverse events like bed sores. The SENSIMAT is the first and only mobile medical application that help users track, relieve, and analyze pressure and pressure trends. The SENSIMAT is a thin mat containing pressure sensors that is inserted underneath your gel, air, or foam cushion. These sensors send pressure data to a mobile device, where our proprietary algorithm alerts the user when they have a high amount of built up pressure, and facilitates and tracks pressure reliefs. Additionally, the SENSIMAT web portal allows healthcare professionals to monitor their patients safely and securely.
