Smart Textile XL: Real-Time Patient Monitoring with Big Data Analytics
Smart Textile XL is designed for a wide range of medical applications, including the FlipProne system, heel protectors, hospital bed sheets, body positioning wedges, and operating tables. This advanced textile technology enables continuous real-time patient monitoring, enhancing both patient safety and clinical efficiency.

Big Data-Driven Real-Time Health Monitoring
Smart Textile XL is equipped with integrated sensors capable of measuring, recording, and transmitting real-time patient data directly to electronic health records (EHRs).

Smart Textile XL integrates a variety of advanced sensor technologies, including:

• Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) for precise detection of body posture and patient movement.
• Piezoresistive and capacitive pressure sensors for accurate posture analysis and pressure distribution monitoring.
• Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) sensors to monitor physiological responses related to stress and the autonomic nervous system.
• Photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors for continuous cardiovascular monitoring, tracking blood flow and oxygen saturation levels.
• Infrared thermistors for precise body temperature regulation and thermal comfort optimization.
• Piezoresistive elastomer sensors to analyze fabric stretch and strain, enabling real-time biomechanical evaluations.

Built-in processors and a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller ensure optimized data processing and real-time feedback mechanisms. These sensors and integrated technologies are strategically embedded within the textile along key anatomical zones to enable precise monitoring of patient positioning, physiological changes, and movement patterns.

By leveraging Big Data-driven insights, Smart Textile XL facilitates proactive patient care, enabling healthcare providers to detect early warning signs, refine treatment plans, and enhance overall patient outcomes through data-driven decision-making and predictive analytics.
