Pressure ulcer monitoring and intervention: A software platform

Pressure ulcer is a significant problem for bedridden and wheelchair-bound patients, diabetics, and the elderly. These patients need to be regularly repositioned to prevent excessive pressure on a single area of their body, which can lead to ulcers. In this work, we develop a software platform that facilitates monitoring at-risk patients and suggests preventive steps that all can lead to less pressure ulcer formation incidents in the hospitals.
