This has been shown by a practical test in Herdecke.

Significantly underestimated length of stay

A new study shows that, without pressure-relieving movements, the length of time spent in hospital is underestimated. Measurement devices, such as the Mobility Monitor, help healthcare professionals to better assess the associated risk of pressure ulcers and to intervene in a more targeted manner.

Immobility is the main risk factor. High-tech mobility monitoring in modern pressure ulcer prevention

Despite numerous efforts to prevent pressure ulcers, too many immobile patients still suffer from avoidable bedsores. The core problem here is that where patients with limited mobility are concerned, nurses often fail to recognise the time of immobility in good time. Future strategies for the successful prevention of pressure ulcers must therefore above all take into account the degree of mobility.
