Development and evaluation of a full-size multi-support mattress pad for sleep/rest in alleviating complex circulatory dysfunction

一种全尺寸的睡眠/休息多支撑床垫垫，具有90度旋转层压层，以缓解复杂的循环功能障碍。在评估该垫之前，对植入起搏器的患者进行访谈，发现其在睡眠或休息时的身体姿势限制，并确定其左侧躺姿困难。为了将全尺寸床垫与典型床垫进行比较，研究人员招募了21名健康成人作为使用非医疗起搏器的假患者。在左侧躺下时，测量左肩对两个垫片的身体压力，并监测左肩的舒适度。全尺寸床垫对左肩的压力下降了30.3%至61.3%:5名受试者的左肩压力低于50毫米汞柱，19名受试者感到舒适，表明左肩压力减轻。

A full-size, sleep/rest multi-support mattress pad with 90 degree rotating lamination layers was developed to alleviate complex circulatory dysfunctions. Prior to evaluation of this pad, patients with an implanted pace-maker device were interviewed to find their body posture restrictions during sleep or rest, and difficulty in laying on their left side was identified. To evaluate the full-size mattress pad by comparing it with a typical one, 21 healthy adults were recruited as pseudo-patients with a nonmedical pace-maker device. In laying on their left side, the body pressure on their left shoulder against two pads was measured, and the comfort of their left shoulder was monitored. The pressure against the left shoulder on the full-size mattress indicated a 30.3% to 61.3% decrease: five subjects had less than 50 mmHg on their left shoulder and 19 subjects experienced a sense of comfort, indicating less pressure on the left shoulder.
