(PharmaNewsWire.Com, July 23, 2024 ) InsightAce Analytic Pvt. Ltd. announces the release of a market assessment report on the "Global Pressure Mapping Systems In Healthcare Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Application (Hospital Beds/Mattresses, Wheelchair, Foot Insoles, And Others), By Region, Market Outlook And Industry Analysis 2031"
Pressure mapping systems are used in healthcare to measure pressure on a patient's body. This helps prevent pressure injuries, which can be serious for patients with limited mobility. These ulcers form when constant pressure cuts off blood flow to skin, often on bony areas like heels and shoulders. Pressure mapping helps healthcare professionals identify these high-pressure areas so they can take steps to prevent ulcers from forming.. Additionally, the National Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Supportive Care emphasizes the importance of pressure ulcer prevention, recommending pressure risk assessment and the use of pressure-relieving devices in both primary and secondary care settings. Pressure mapping systems use an array of sensors embedded in a mat or pad that can be placed on beds, chairs, or other surfaces where patients rest. These sensors detect pressure at various points. The sensors collect data on the pressure exerted by the patient's body on the surface. This data is then transmitted to a central system for analysis. The collected data is processed and displayed as a pressure map, typically on a computer screen. Different colors represent varying levels of pressure, allowing caregivers to see which areas of the body are under the most stress. Advanced systems can analyze the data to identify patterns and trends. They can provide alerts if certain pressure thresholds are exceeded, prompting caregivers to reposition the patient or take other preventive measures.
