Low Patient Movement Alert
Alerts for movement are displayed in cases of low and extremely high movement. An
alert for Low movement (Figure 35) may come up once a day at 6:00 AM if during the
night (00:00-6:00) the amount of patient movement or activity level was below a certain
threshold, which might imply the patient is in risk for developing pressure ulcers.
Following dismissing the alert of low movement, you will be asked if you want a Patient
Turn reminder for this patient (Figure 34).
