With the rapid development of the Internet, big data, the IoT, smart pension and other topics have aroused heated discussion. In order to better live in the intelligent age for the elderly, many elderly care institutions are seeking intelligent elderly care solutions to promote the rapid development of elderly care. At present, smart pension is still in the development stage, and there are many problems to be solved.

The intelligent elderly care solution can choose to provide for the elderly at home. The elderly can enjoy the intelligent home care service without leaving home, and can realize the services such as help call, remote monitoring, physiological monitoring, etc. The smart elderly care solution also provides APP for the elderly to meet the personalized needs of the elderly, and to address the safety, psychological, health, life and other needs of the elderly living alone, so as to truly realize the old people’s dependence and support.

Smart elderly care solutions need to rely on smart elderly care products, such as smart mattresses. As long as they are connected and lying on the bed, they can accurately monitor the breath, heart rate, body movement, turning over, and leaving the bed, and send an alarm in case of abnormal breath, heart rate, and not returning from the bed, reminding the caregivers to provide timely help to avoid accidents. This product is mainly developed and produced for the elderly, which can ensure the safety and physical condition of the elderly in bed, and also enable the children outside to know their parents’ health at any time, and truly feel that they are thousands of miles away, and can still protect the health of the elderly.

The smart mattress of Plus1Health is embedded with a high sensitivity sensor, which monitors the breath, heart rate, and provides in-bed and out-of-bed sensing, so that users can understand their sleep quality and basic health data. If the data is abnormal, an alarm will be sent to let users master the body changes, especially for children, the elderly, patients and other specific groups.

Smart elderly care mattress and its solution make the elderly care management more efficient and safe, and the elderly care comfortable and secure

With the gradual increase of the number of the elderly, China’s aging is becoming increasingly serious, and the elderly care industry is also increasing. Improving the living environment of the elderly, so that the elderly have a sense of security, a sense of support, a sense of happiness, and a sense of security, has also become a topic of public concern. To realize this series of elderly care construction, we need to use intelligent elderly care products, such as intelligent elderly care mattress, which is an intelligent monitoring product for the elderly, and can provide family sleep and physical health monitoring. It is non-wearing and non-binding, and can provide you with comprehensive health advice and care through real-time sleep monitoring, daily sleep report, and monthly sleep data combined with professional medical institutions.

1、 Smart pension mattress

Intelligent elderly care mattresses are mainly aimed at the elderly. In order to take better care of the elderly and provide careful elderly care services, the elderly care institutions place intelligent elderly care mattresses on each bed to monitor the elderly’s heart rate, breathing, in and out of bed data, and record the sleep quality of each elderly at night. It is convenient to use. As long as the elderly are lying in bed, they can monitor their breathing, heartbeat, physical signs and sleep quality through sensors and algorithms, so as to accurately monitor their physical data. After collecting various data of the elderly, the data can be directly fed back to the elderly relatives or nursing homes through the algorithm, and the physical condition of the elderly can also be learned through the terminal applet. If a dangerous situation is found, the intelligent nursing mattress will automatically send an alarm to remind the nursing staff to come for rescue. Intelligent nursing mattress combined with smart screen can realize real-time monitoring of multiple beds at the same time, can replace the original manual management mode, provide efficient, accurate and rich information intelligent management, improve the work efficiency of nursing staff, greatly improve the management level of nursing homes, reduce labor costs, and achieve scientific and complete modern management.

2、 Advantages of intelligent pension mattress

1. Real-time monitoring and timely rescue

Intelligent elderly care mattress is to provide users with more accurate data monitoring report by using pressure sensing technology and independently developed algorithm analysis, which can accurately monitor the human body’s respiration, heart rate, body movement, and in-bed and other data information. The final data will be transmitted to the institution, elderly care center or terminal applet through the network. Once the data is abnormal, it will send an alarm in real time to provide first-time assistance for people in danger of life.

2. Light and light, easy to install

The mattress is made of light and thin material, with built-in ultra-low power sensor, which can be quickly customized according to user needs. The monitoring pad is a non-intelligent wearable device, which only needs to be placed under the bed sheet. It is invisible and has no sense of feeling, and it is more comfortable to sleep. The mattress installation is simple and fast. For home care, place the mattress under the bed sheet, plug in the power supply and turn on the network. For institutions or platforms, our monitoring pads can be connected across multiple terminals and platforms, and can be transmitted through the network.

3. Friendly care and unimpeded communication

With this intelligent elderly care mattress, children outside can remotely monitor their parents at home, so that there is no distance limit for communication. Even if the parents don’t say, we can also grasp their physical condition in real time through the monitoring pad. The intervention of intelligent technology products allows us to understand the physical condition of the elderly more scientifically, and the children’s irregular care and inquiry can effectively improve the sense of security of the elderly and make the elderly no longer lonely and helpless.

4. Reduce the burden and increase efficiency, and provide considerate service

For the elderly in the community or elderly care institutions, the nursing staff are required to patrol the houses at the specified time to ensure the life safety of the elderly. However, the nursing staff’s monitoring energy is limited and cannot guarantee the life safety of every elderly person in real time. In this case, an intelligent tool – intelligent monitoring mattress is needed to help medical staff understand the vital signs of the elderly. The accuracy of real-time data monitoring can greatly reduce the working pressure of nursing staff and make nursing services more humane.

3、 Intelligent pension mattress function

Intelligent elderly care mattress can solve the six major problems of the elderly: sleep monitoring, respiratory monitoring, heart rate monitoring, in-bed monitoring, health records, and disease warning. After collecting various data of the elderly, it can directly feed back to the elderly relatives or nursing homes through algorithms, and can also understand the physical condition of the elderly through terminal procedures.

1. Sleep monitoring

The intelligent elderly mattress can record the sleep process of the elderly, and present a visual sleep report for the elderly through a small program to help the elderly understand their sleep status and cultivate good sleep habits.

2. Respiratory monitoring

Monitor the breathing status of the elderly in real time. When the elderly stops breathing or has an accident, the sensing device of the intelligent elderly mattress will immediately send an emergency alarm, so that the nursing staff can seize valuable time to rescue.

3. Heart rate monitoring

The intelligent elderly care mattress monitors the heart rate of the elderly through sensor technology, fully monitors the resting heart rate data of the elderly, and then discovers the disease of the elderly in advance through big data calculation, so that relatives or nursing homes can be treated in time.

4. In-bed and out-of-bed monitoring

The sensor equipment of the intelligent elderly mattress can monitor whether the elderly are in bed. The sensor technology is used to collect the heart rate and respiration of the elderly in bed, and the state of being in bed and out of bed. In case of an accident, it can be rescued in time.

5. Health records

The intelligent elderly mattress can monitor the health of the elderly and record it, upload it to the system and terminal applet, so that relatives or nursing workers can view it at any time, and also compare the physical data of the elderly in the previous few days. If there is a large gap, check the nursing in time.

6. Disease warning

The elderly are prone to sores if they do not turn over in bed for a long time. The intelligent elderly care mattress can monitor whether the elderly turn over on time. If not, it will prompt the nursing staff to turn over for the elderly, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of disease.

What is the principle of heart rate monitoring on mobile phones?

The principle of heart rate monitoring by mobile phones refers to the increase in blood flow to the fingers during heartbeat. With the help of cameras and flash lights, the frequency of changes in finger blood can be obtained. Through mobile phone algorithms, it can be converted into pulse signals, thereby calculating an accurate heart rate.

Based on multiple tests on multiple devices, Plus1Health has created a high-performance signal quality detection algorithm and a highly sensitive heart rate monitor algorithm for mobile phone sensors. On the basis of sensing and eliminating signal disturbances, it achieves the effect of rapid and accurate heart rate monitor.

Monitoring heart rate with a mobile phone is very simple. Users can open the Heart Rate app and enter the heart rate page. Click the red chart in the lower right corner of the page to start monitoring heart rate. During the monitor process, completely block the camera and keep the fingers stable. After the monitor, a professional evaluation report will be generated.

What is the principle of heart rate monitoring with smart bracelet/watch?

Currently, the most well-known heart rate monitoring products on the market are still smart bracelets/watches. So, what is the principle of smart bracelet/watch heart rate monitoring?

Currently, there are three principles for heart rate monitoring:

1. Photoelectric transmission monitor method

In principle, the sensor that contacts the bracelet with the skin emits a beam of light hitting the skin to measure the reflected/transmitted light. “Because blood has an absorption effect on light at a specific wavelength, each time the heart pumps blood, that wavelength is greatly absorbed, which can determine the heartbeat.”. This method consumes a lot of power and is also subject to ambient light interference.

2. ECG signal monitor method

The sensor of the bracelet can measure the electrical signal of myocardial contraction to determine the user’s heart rate, and the principle is similar to that of an electrocardiogram. In each cardiac cycle, the atria and ventricles of the human heart are successively excited, accompanied by the continuous operation of countless myocardial cells, which can cause potential changes. By detecting periodic changes in electrocardiogram, the heart rate can be detected. Due to the complexity of the circuit, the large footprint of the PCB, and the susceptibility to electromagnetic interference, it is difficult to use this method for bracelets.

3. Electric pulse monitor method

“Because every heartbeat causes vibrations in the body, high-precision sensors can capture this vibration, and then signal processing can be performed to obtain a heartbeat.”.

Electric pulse measurement uses dry electrode technology to obtain human ECG data, and obtains heart rate through peak detection. The principle is similar to ECG. Before the mechanical contraction of the heart, an electrical excitation is generated, which can be transmitted to the body surface through human tissue. The electrical pulse monitor method measures the heart rate by monitoring this electrical excitation. Generally, products such as intelligent seat cushions or massagers will adopt this method.

The accuracy of data depends on sensors and algorithms.

Due to unprofessional monitoring equipment, bracelets/watches cannot directly monitor pulse conditions, and external environment interference is too large, which requires algorithms to eliminate interference items. At the same time, the sensor should also be accurate and sensitive, capable of receiving photoelectric signals without dead corners, thereby ensuring the accuracy of data.

For heart rate monitoring, Plus1Health has advanced algorithms, accurate and highly sensitive sensors that can provide heart rate detection module solutions.

What should I do if my heart rate is too fast after catching a cold?

In winter, the season of high incidence of colds. “If a cold causes fever or rapid breathing, it can cause a compensatory acceleration of the heart rate, which is a relatively common clinical situation.”. A cold can cause tachycardia, and it is also necessary to be alert to the possibility of viral myocarditis. If myocardial cells are infected with a virus and cause inflammatory reactions, various types of arrhythmia can occur, such as sinus tachycardia, atrial tachycardia, and even ventricular tachycardia. Therefore, it is best to improve electrocardiogram examination and even 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram monitoring for the presence of malignant cardiac arrhythmias and to rule out the possibility of viral myocarditis in the event of a rapid heartbeat due to a cold.

Plus1Health has a ECG patch that can perform 24-hour ambulatory ECG monitoring and provide ECG report analysis.

Here, there are also two free heart rate monitor apps that can be temporarily used to monitor:

Heart Rate Record – Plus1Health” on the App Store (apple. com)

AFibCheck – Atrial Fibrillation Screening” on the App Store (apple. com)

After catching a cold, what should I pay attention to in my diet?

1.Drinking chicken soup can inhibit inflammation of the throat and respiratory tract, and is extremely effective in eliminating symptoms such as stuffiness, runny nose, cough, and sore throat caused by colds. Because chicken contains a variety of amino acids necessary for the human body and is rich in nutrients, it can significantly enhance the body’s resistance to cold viruses. Chicken also contains a special chemical substance that can enhance the blood circulation in the throat and secretion of nasal fluid, which has a good effect on protecting respiratory tract patency, clearing respiratory tract viruses, and accelerating the recovery of colds.

2. Eat more radishes: The radish element in radishes has a unique role in preventing and treating colds. The specific method is to chop up the sweet, crispy and juicy radish, press out half a cup of juice, mash the ginger, extract a small amount of ginger juice, add it to the radish juice, then add white sugar or honey, mix well, and then pour it into boiling water to drink as a beverage. Taking it three times a day for two days can clear heat, detoxify, dispel cold, and prevent colds.

3. Sugar ginger tea mixed drink: Due to the fact that colds are often caused by exogenous wind and cold, there are often symptoms such as headache, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore joints, and even fear of cold and fever. Suitable amounts of brown sugar, ginger, and black tea can be used to boil and drink in soup 1-2 times a day. This not only warms up and removes cold, but also has a good function of preventing and treating colds.

4. Eat Less Salt: Eating less sodium containing salt can increase the content of lysozyme in saliva, protect mucosal epithelial cells in the mouth and throat, and allow them to secrete more immunoglobulin A and interferon to combat cold viruses. Therefore, controlling salt consumption within 5 grams per day is very beneficial for preventing and treating colds.

5.Eat more seasonings: Ginger and dried chili peppers can help the body expel cold viruses, relieve cough, and dissipate phlegm. Garlic can also enhance the body’s immune function. Adding more seasoning when cooking dishes can make a cold recover early.

Beware of myocarditis after catching a cold

Myocarditis refers to localized or diffuse acute or chronic inflammatory lesions of the myocardium, which can be caused by infection (such as viruses, bacteria, or fungi) or non infectious factors (such as autoimmune diseases). It can reduce the heart’s ability to pump blood, causing the heart to beat quickly or irregularly, leading to arrhythmia.

Myocarditis can launch “undifferentiated attacks” on people of all ages and sexes, but young adults aged 20 to 40 are more likely to be recruited than elderly people and children.

Clinically, myocarditis is mostly caused by viral infection, and the common cold can also be induced.

Clinical manifestations of myocarditis:

Symptoms: Severe fatigue, chest tightness, dizziness, and dyspnea that cannot be explained by other reasons occur within a few days or 1 to 3 weeks after the onset of precursor symptoms of viral infection (such as fever, fatigue, muscle soreness, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, and cough). High vigilance should be exercised against myocarditis.

About 90% of patients with myocarditis have difficulty breathing as their most prominent clinical manifestation, while the other 10% seek medical attention after syncope or cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

It is important to note that the increase in heart rate at rest is inconsistent with body temperature, which is one of the important clues for the diagnosis of myocarditis, usually>100 beats/min, sometimes up to 160 beats/min. (Generally speaking, for every 1 ℃ increase in body temperature, the heart rate increases by about 10 beats/min).

ECG: The most common electrocardiogram manifestation is sinus tachycardia. Ventricular premature beats and various types of conduction block can also be seen. In severe cases, electrocardiogram manifestations such as ventricular fibrillation and ventricular flutter can occur.

3. Laboratory indicators: often accompanied by elevated myocardial injury indicators such as troponin and myocardial enzymes. Some patients may have elevated serological indicators of viral infection, such as antigen and antibody.

Free heart rate monitor app:

Heart Rate Record – Plus1Health” on the App Store (apple. com)

AFibCheck – Atrial Fibrillation Screening” on the App Store (apple. com)

Timely seek medical attention in the following cases:

1. High fever (body temperature ≥ 39 ℃);

2. Abnormal increase or decrease in blood pressure: Patients with severe myocarditis have severe cardiac insufficiency and systemic toxic reactions that cause abnormal vascular activity, leading to hypotension, and in severe cases, blood pressure cannot be measured;

3. Shortness of breath (frequency often>30 times/min) or respiratory depression (frequency<10 times/min in severe cases);

4. Decrease in blood oxygen saturation:<90%, even down to 40%~50%;

5. There may be tachycardia (often>120 beats/min) or bradycardia (can be<50 beats/min).

Avoid strenuous exercise within 3-6 months after discharge, and follow up and monitor electrocardiogram, echocardiography, dynamic electrocardiogram, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to measure the recovery of cardiac function and inflammation, guide medication for heart failure, and evaluate the prognosis.

Plus1Health has an ECG recorder that can perform 24-hour ambulatory ECG monitoring and provide ECG report analysis.

How to conduct sleep health monitoring for primary and secondary school students?

According to the spirit of the 2021 National Education Work Conference and the “Notice on Further Strengthening the Sleep Management of Primary and Secondary School Students” issued by the Ministry of Education, the country is increasingly concerned about the sleep quality of primary and secondary school students.

Sleep is an important link in the healthy growth of students, and an important embodiment of the school’s emphasis on the comprehensive development of students’ moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor. Improving classroom efficiency requires students to have a good mental state. The sleep status of students is the key to an efficient classroom. It is necessary to actively do a good job of improving students’ sleep status, guide parents to pay attention to students’ sleep quality, and promote the importance of sleep and the dangers of insufficient sleep, so as to achieve a consensus between home and school, and jointly promote the healthy growth of students.

However, how to effectively improve students’ sleep quality and how to do so require monitoring with some equipment, further analysis after obtaining data, and effective management of differences based on actual conditions and individual differences.

Plus1Health has a sleep recorder device that can be embedded in a mattress and can monitor sleep heart rate and respiratory rate. The length and frequency of time and frequency of leaving bed and turning over during sleep can also be monitored. Abnormal sleep center rate and respiratory rate can be early warning, and snoring during sleep can also be monitored. Patients with sleep apnea syndrome can be screened as soon as possible and treated in a timely manner.

Schools can take targeted preventive and management measures based on monitoring data to determine whether students who leave bed and turn over frequently during sleep are affected by other snoring classmates due to their shallow sleep, and whether snoring students have sleep apnea syndrome. They should take preventive measures as soon as possible for these students, and remind their parents to take their students to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible.

How can schools effectively manage students’sleep?

Sleep accounts for about one-third of the time in a person’s life. A good sleep condition can help eliminate fatigue and relieve stress. For teenagers, sleep is even more important. During the sleep cycle, growth hormone accelerates secretion and promotes the growth and development of adolescents.

A strong youth makes a strong country. Teenagers are the hope for the future of the country. Therefore, the Ministry of Education has issued the “Notice on Further Strengthening the Sleep Management of Primary and Secondary School Students”, urging schools to effectively manage the sleep of primary and secondary school students.

To effectively manage students’ sleep, schools need to have a complete management system that can achieve intelligent management and improve management efficiency and level.

Plus1Health has a smart screen, coupled with a sleep recorder (which can be embedded in a mattress), that can achieve sleep monitoring, reflecting sleep quality through monitoring heart rate and respiratory rate. A smart screen can simultaneously monitor 48 devices to reflect the sleep status of 48 students. If an abnormality occurs, an early warning message and a warning sound will appear on the smart screen. School administrators can view the actual situation of students based on the situation and promptly handle it.

Parents of students can also remotely and real-time view their children’s sleep status through the applet terminal. After binding the device, they can receive an exception warning and sleep report message push. The Sleep Mindfulness applet of Plus1Health produces reports quickly and timely, with detailed records and analysis of sleep reports, as well as stress tests, and early screening for sleep apnea. This allows schools to fully understand the health status of students and reassure parents about their children.
