About
Wellsense Technologies is the developer of a real-time, continuous bedside-monitoring device that displays the areas where a patient is developing high-pressure points that lead to bedsores. The device consists of a pressure-sensing mat that is placed on the bed and wired to a monitor, providing color-coded visual feedback for repositioning patients so that pressure points on the body are consistently rotated. The system can be customized for each facility and patient. The companys sensor technology offers a flexible and affordable intelligent textile that can visualize real-time interface pressure readings. Its technology provides a comprehensive and intuitive method for caregivers to enhance patient safety and dramatically reduce the likelihood of facility-acquired pressure ulcers. Wellsense has also developed VU, an advanced pressure-visualization system that provides the visual and evaluative feedback required to effectively reposition patients and redistribute pressure with certainty.
