BAM Labs Touch-free Life Care Applications
Pressure Sore Prevention
Pressure sores are preventable, yet each year over 11% of nursing home residents develop a pressure sore. The cost to treat a bed sore can skyrocket to over $40,000 and severely reduces the quality of life for the individual. Caregivers need better tools to help reduce the incidence of bedsores. The BAM Labs Position Change application provides caregivers with a smart phone or iPod touch to record position changes, see the duration since the last position change and receive automated reminders for the next position change to greatly reduce the risk of bed sores. All position changes are recorded to ensure compliance with the standard of care.

Fall Prevention
11 million Americans over the age of 65 experience a fall each year with 1.6 million ending up in the emergency room for treatment, and each treatment costs an average of $19,600 (source CDC). The BAM Labs Bed Exit application tracks in and out of bed events and instantly sends a message to a caregiver’s phone when a person gets out of bed. The caregiver can provide immediate assistance reducing the risk of falling.

Sleep Analysis
Poor sleep has been directly correlated with higher risks of strokes and heart disease. The BAM Labs Sleep Analysis application monitors nightly sleep quality by comparing sleep duration, restlessness, nightly heart rate and breathing rate to long-term trends and medical standards. A nightly sleep score of 1 (poor) to 100 (best) provides an easy to understand interpretation of sleep quality, so that you can track the impact of medications, lifestyle choices and exercise programs on your sleep quality.
