Intelligent sensor
Secumatic is a fast growing mid-sized company generating its turnover in export activities throughout Europe. We are specialised in detection systems, for instance for the health care sector. We offer the WeSpot SecNurse, an intelligent sensor to prevent wandering. The SecNurse monitors whether patients return to their beds within a specified time. The SecNurse is a reliable solution for caregivers in that is reduces false alarms; at the same time, it enhances client privacy.
Product Information
01.04.04 Patient monitoring systems / Measuring stations
SecNurse 19.09.2007
The SecNurse is an innovative and new product for applications in care homes, nursing homes and hospitals. With the WeSpot SecNurse, the staff has the ability to monitor safe and reliable whether patients return to their beds within a specified time, without infringing the privacy. Moreover, the SecNurse offers a reliable system that decreases the number of false alarms for the staff significantly.
The technique used in the SecNurse is both simple as advanced. As the SecNurse works on the principle of image recognition (hardware) and image interpretation (software), a high level of reliability arises, especially compared to the existing “bed mats” or infrared detectors. This offers tranquility to the staff and privacy to the patient. Besides, the SecNurse is easy to install, can be placed everywhere (both permanent as ambulant), is easy to integrate in each nurse call system, maintenance free, easy to keep clean, hygienic and does not need physical contact with the patient.
Alarm output contact
The SecNurse sends an alarm to the existing nurse call system when the sensor detects that someone has left the bed, caused for example, by a fall or wandering. However, the SecNurse also can send this alarm after a specified time. For instance, if the patient has not returned to bed within 10 minutes. The time interval can be set according to the level of care required for each individual patient.
Privacy
As the sensor only reacts if necessary (false alarms belong to the past), the privacy of the patient is guaranteed and even improved, as the staff has not to react anymore on a false alarm. The camera technique used in the SecNurse is used for monitoring and interpretation within the sensor itself. No video images are provided. The only output contacts are two simple relays. The SecNurse is applicable in all kinds of care assistance and on all types of wards, as for instance psycho geriatric wards and closed wards.
Extra output contact
The SecNurse offers standard a second output contact (out of bed mode) that can be used according to individual needs of a patient. For example, you can switch a light to assist the patient in the dark but you can also connect this second contact to the existing nurse call system so the staff gets a notification that a patient has left his or her bed but is not in an alarm situation. In some situations it is needed that the SecNurse gives a contact (armed mode) to the nurse call system so that the nurse call system knows the sensor is turned on. The SecNurse offers this function through the second output contact. This function is optional available and will replace the above-mentioned standard extra output. The alarm contact and the extra contact can be easily integrated in each existing nurse call system.
Cost efficient
The SecNurse is a cost efficient alternative, which offers a lot of short-term advantages for the care organisation and a positive balance on your budget at the mid-term. No expensive and frequent replacements, caused through wastage and deficiencies, anymore and maintenance costs will be negligible.
