Abstract:
A patient monitoring and repositioning system includes a mattress, a sheet residing on an upper surface of the mattress, a housing containing a drive mechanism, and a sensor adapted to sense a position of a patient resting on the mattress. The drive mechanism is operable to pull the sheet and thereby pull the patient resting thereon. The housing receives the sheet through a slot. In the event that the patient is in an undesirable position on the mattress as detected by the sensor, a controller directs the drive mechanism to pull the sheet so as to pull the patient thereon from the undesirable position to a desirable, predetermined position. The controller may direct the drive mechanism automatically or indicate the undesirable position to a caregiver so that the caregiver may direct the drive mechanism accordingly.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 4  wherein a central controller operatively connects to a plurality of controllers, each of the controllers respectively associated with a patient monitoring and repositioning system and further comprising:\n using the central controller to monitor at least one of the following: the positions of a plurality of patients located respectively on a plurality of beds, thereby for each of the patient monitoring and repositioning systems to enable the ongoing monitoring of at least one of: the patient not in the predetermined position, a time that the patient is not in the predetermined position, an amount of patient repositionings, a frequency of patient repositionings in a facility, an amount of sheet already used, a need to change or reset the sheet on the bed, a distance migrated by the patient on the bed, a time of the patient in each position on the bed, a time delay before repositioning the patient on the bed, a duration of repositioning the patient on the bed, the position of the patient on the bed, a time of day the patient was repositioned, and a frequency of patient repositionings executed on the bed.
