Systems and Methods for Managing A Person's Position to Encourage Proning

Fuente: Wipo "Sensorization"
Systems, devices, and methods are provided to facilitate the implementation of a “proning protocol” to improve a clinical outcome for a person having SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) or other condition that may benefit from spending time in the prone position. For example, a system may include a mobile device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, etc.) providing a proning application configured to manage a configuration and implementation of a proning protocol for a person and configured to receive sensor data from (a) a wearable sensor device secured to the person and including sensor(s) (e.g., accelerometer(s)) that monitor the person body position, and/or (b) other sensor(s) that monitor other physiological parameters relative to the proning protocol. The proning application may determine and output feedback to manage the person's position based at least on the received sensor data and defined parameters of the proning protocol.
