This year our Foundation presented a check to Gaylord Hospital so they could purchase a new Pressure Mapping system. Tara A. Knapp – Vice President of Development, Public Relations & Marketing describes the system: “Pressure mapping helps wheelchair bound individuals avoid complications from pressure ulcers and sores when a seat is improperly fitted. Given that the chair is their “home” it is important that it fit correctly. The thin, flexible body pressures sensors help assess comfort, design, and ergonomics. This system can be configured to measure any size seating, or support surface. This system captures key metrics when it comes to measuring the pressure distribution between the human body and a surface, including total force, peak pressures, and center of force. The software gives the staff member the ability to make quick assessments of asymmetry, as well as conclude peak pressures at a glance. Gaylord’s system was purchased in 2006 and is past its useful life and is at risk of complete failure.”
The MJ Petretto Foundation is happy to support Gaylord’s purchase of this critically needed system. Thank you to all of our donors and volunteers who contributed their time, resources and money to the 2019 Golf Tournament, enabling us to give this donation!
