Parasol Medical DrySmart Incontinence Pad

Parasol Medical is the only fall prevention system to address incontinence, the number one reason for falls. According to peer reviewed healthcare studies, elimination falls are responsible for more than 50% of falls within acute care facilities. The DrySmart Incontinence Pad is part of a total fall prevention system focusing on elimination related falls. Real-time incontinence monitoring engineered into their unique, highly absorbent DrySmart Pads notifies clinicians when a patient has had an incontinence event. This early warning can allow intervention before the patient attempts to exit the bed.

Parasol’s unique Drysmart pads are not only incredibly absorbent, they are smart. Drysmart technology replaces traditional, manual methods of checking for incontinence and instead, each product is engineered with conductive ink that is moisture sensitive, sending an alarm in real-time through their patented wired or wireless Parasol monitors or through existing nurse call systems. Clinicians are automatically notified when a patient has voided so he or she can be changed promptly. Drysmart pads help reduce the spread of infection, such as C. diff. They are treated with MicrobeCare, a permanently bonded antimicrobial solution that provides continual protection on equipment surfaces under all conditions.
