Predict Near Future Initiation of Bed Exit

NCT01774708 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 5

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Presence/absence in bed along with heartbeat, respiration, and gross motion in bed will be measured in 48 Budd Terrace residents, a long-term care facility of Emory Healthcare. Measurement will be done using only pressure-sensitive mats that lie underneath the mattress and never touch the patient. PHI information will be collected by Emory staff. This PHI will be restricted to: age at time of participation; medical conditions; and medications. The PHI will be stored in a locked file behind a locked door. Data management will provide a unique identifier for each participant linked to a name that will be kept separately from the aggregate data.

The data collected from the bed sensor will be processed offline and separately from the PHI to do proof of concept evaluation for the use of machine learning technology to predict bed exits 1 to 5 minutes ahead of time.

Interventions

DEVICE

Pressure sensitive pad

The proposed research uses an investigational device from EarlySense consisting of a pressure sensitive piezoelectric pad 350 mm x 226 mm x 12 mm or a little less than 9 by 13 inches and under a half inch thick connected to a cord resembling a phone cord to a controller 10.3 by 10.5 by 5.5 inches which in turn plugs into a standard electrical outlet. The power cord is modu¬lar, so it is possible to select a cord that is long enough without having excessive extra length. The con¬nec¬tion between the pad and the monitor has a quick release like a modular telephone. This system is designed to very unobtrusively collect heartbeat patterns, respiratory patterns, motion in bed, and bed-exit data with no risk or inconvenience to the patient.
