Sponsor's own description

The study has 1 primary research question and 5 auxiliary research questions regarding the use of bed mattress sensor for detecting pre-fall activities in elderly residents in old-age home setting: Primary research question: 1. Can bedside fall incidents per 1000 bed-days be reduced comparing the 6 months before and after the installation of the bed mattress sensor system, and compared to control group? Auxiliary research questions: 2. Can the length of fall-related hospital stay shortens comparing the 6 months before and after the installation of the system and compared to control group? 3. What are the differences in fall characteristics comparing the 6 months before and after the installation of the system and compared to control group? 4. What is the number of different types of alerts and average time to turn off the alerts of the system (proxy measure of response time of the care staff), and how are they different to bed-exit alarm system? 5. What are the immediate care delivery of the staff upon the alert of the system, and how are they different to bed-exit alarm system? 6. What are the views and comments from the operation staff, residents and/or their family members on the usage of the bed mattress sensor?
