Pressure-Injury Repositioning Compliance (Too Still, Too Long)
Makes sure bed-bound residents are turned on schedule and are not dangerously still.
The physics is solid; our own validation is scheduled.
How it works
A turn — by staff or by the resident — creates a short burst of movement over the bed that WiFi waves pick up clearly. Gentle breathing confirms the person is there even when perfectly still. If too much time passes with no turn at all, the system reminds the team.
In the physics: Spontaneous repositioning produces brief 1-10Hz Doppler bursts with in-bed spatial signature; staff-assisted turns show a two-person occupancy event (occupancy count r=0.9, proven) coinciding with high in-bed motion. Absence of any burst beyond the 2-hour turn protocol is directly measurable as a null in the bed-path Doppler channel while breathing-band energy confirms presence.

How we prove it
Presence and occupancy counting already class-A; own-hardware study vs. pressure-mat ground truth over 30 nights in 5 beds; CSI-Bench in-bed motion segments for burst detector tuning.
Who it is for
For directors of nursing facing CMS F-686 pressure-ulcer citations: 'Auditable, automatic proof that every 2-hour turn actually happened — per bed, per shift, no extra hardware in the bed.'
