Smart Clothing for Elderly Patients with Dementia
Aiming at the current increase in the number of demented elderly people, which brings about the problem of increased pressure on medical care, this paper designs a smart nursing garment with fecal incontinence detection for demented elderly patients. The intelligent garment is functionally divided into control module, temperature and humidity detection module, wireless communication monitor and power module, etc., and the APP detection function is realized on the cell phone terminal. At the same time, this paper enhances the comfort and ease of wearing and taking off of the smart clothing, as well as the acceptance of dementia elderly patients through the style design, structure design and color design of the clothing, and the virtual effect of the smart clothing is demonstrated. Through the smart clothing function test, when the dementia elderly patients are incontinent, the cell phone APP has temperature and humidity display, prompting the caregiver to change clothes in time to realize the intelligent nursing function.
