Making Diapers SMART and CONNECTED
A key issue faced by the elderly and their carers is in the management of incontinence. This can be extremely time consuming and physically demanding.It’s not only distressing for the elderly and their families to deal with but it places a significant demand on carer’s time with constant manual checks to ensure that the wearer is not sitting in a wet diaper, which can have a negative effect on their skin condition and dignity. Smartz uses simple sensors to monitor diaper capacity in real time and creates and alert when the diaper needs changing. This means that diaper usage is optimized (product changed when necessary, not too soon nor too late).
This means an improvement in dignity and piece of mind for the wearer
Cost savings through reduced pad usage
Time savings through both reduced product changes
Time savings through reduced changes of wet clothing and bedding
Reduced disposal costs, laundry costs, etc.
Smartz technology also incorporates sensors to measure movement, temperature and additional data to provide additional health data and warnings (e.g. Pressure sore risks, falls, etc) and this functionality will expand with product development.
