Benefits of Pressure Imaging

Dynamic Pressure Imaging SessionXSENSOR has worked with leading clinics, hospitals, and research institutes including The Mayo Clinic, Mount Sinai Hospital, Walter Reed Hospital, St. Jude's Hospital, Veteran’s Affairs, Hill-Rom, and Georgia Tech University. Pressure imaging is a valuable tool for wound care that provides a number of benefits including:

Benefit: Pressure Wound Prevention
Pressure mapping helps clinicians adjust seating posture, optimize balance and stability, and prescribe seating and bedding surfaces for their clients, which helps mitigate the risk of developing pressure wounds. Pressure wounds are a significant threat to patient safety and a preventable cost to the health care system.

Benefit: Improve Patient Education and Compliance
By sharing visual information, patients have a stronger understanding of how their actions impact their well-being and are more likely to comply with prescribed recommendations. The X3 DISPLAY handheld system provides on-the-spot patient education that can highlight appropriate pressure relief techniques, tilt-in-space wheelchair positioning, and alternative strategies for weight shifting.

Benefit: Save Time for Clinicians
With pressure imaging, clinicians are able to quantify patient assessments, thus allowing them to make better decisions more quickly.
