"Turning" to technology: Reducing pressure injury incidence in critical care with turn cueing

This case study presentation will review the objectives and outcomes from a HAPI-prevention initiative in critical care at the Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Florida that implemented a wearable sensor turn cueing system to improve turn protocol adherence and reduce hospital-acquired pressure injuries. The LEAF Patient Monitoring System monitors the orientation and activity of patients susceptible to pressure ulcers. It allows healthcare providers to implement individualized turn management plans and continuously monitor each patient. The LEAF Patient Monitoring System provides alerts when patient orientation or activity deviates from parameters set by healthcare providers.
