Pressure measurement of air cushions for patients

Pressure sores are a serious problem for patients with spinal cord injuries (SCI). Many kinds of pressure-relieving cushions have been developed to distribute the weight widely. In rehabilitation medicine, the selection of the wheelchair cushion and the adjustment of the cushion are very important problem for the medical staff in prevention of pressure sores. So we propose a radar chart to support the medical staff. We believe that this radar chart is very useful to the medical staff in selecting the wheelchair cushions, adjusting the cushions and assisting the SCl patient's posture. Moreover, it is useful for the SCI patients to study their posture on the wheelchair and the prevention of pressure sores.
