Exploring repositioning movements in sitting with 'at risk' groups using accelerometry and interface pressure mapping technologies

In an era of personalised medicine, technology has an important role to play in providing the service user, caregivers and healthcare staff with important biofeedback information about seated behaviours, particularly those that minimise the risk of developing sitting acquired pressure ulcers. This information can augment occupational therapists' clinical decision-making in maximising active pressure ulcer prevention.
