Benefits for Patients

If successfully developed and validated, the concept could complement established preventive care by enabling gradual pressure shifts and gentle mechanical stimulation. For people with limited mobility, the intended benefits include greater comfort and less time spent in one unchanged contact position.

The system is conceived for continuous use during rest periods. Patient comfort, safety and potential clinical effects remain subject to testing and validation.

Benefits for Care Facilities and Caregivers

If successfully developed and validated, the system could reduce the need for demanding manual repositioning. This may ease physical strain on caregivers and create more time for direct care.

Usability, workflow fit and potential economic benefits will be evaluated with care providers during future development stages.
