ABENA Nova uses a unique wireless connection to digital sensors to deliver actionable insights to caregivers. The sensors in the continence product continuously register changes in wetness levels and share real-time information to caregivers on a mobile device via the WetSens Monitor app. DATA 1 ACCURATE BUILT-IN SENSORS 2 STABLE INFRASTRUCTURE INTELLIGENCE CARE (Action) 3 REAL-TIME ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS Training is required: Digital solutions require new knowledge and understanding of how the technology works. Train-the trainer concepts can be applied when the digital solution is scaled up. Make sure that the digital infrastructure is in place: Malfunctioning technology creates frustrations. Make sure to have connections in place that meet the requirements of the digital continence solution. ABENA Nova is run by its own 4G infrastructure that is not dependent on WiFi. No one-size fits all: Some departments will be front- runners and embrace the digital possibilities. Others will be a bit more reluctant and value well-known routines. It is important to pay attention to these different positions and attitudes during implementation, and make sure to get everybody on board at their own pace. Easy to get started ABENA Nova with MediSens is an easy to implement, plug- and-play solution. All it takes is 1-2 hours of introduction to the system and the practical usage of the solution. The time-consuming and difficult part is getting used to new ways of working and changed routines in daily continence care. Facts about ABENA Nova ABENA Nova is the first and leading digital continence solution providing real-time and actionable data for timely and personalized continence care. Safety, privacy and security ABENA Nova with MediSens is CE marked, classified as an electronic medical device class 1, and compliant with MDD (MDR as of May 2021). It follows the same radiation tests as other low energy, Bluetooth devices as for instance fitness tracking devices, cell phones and loud speakers. ABENA Nova is designed with the highest standards for data security to create a resilient IT architecture from resident to cloud. ABENA Nova complies with all regulatory requirements, notably EU’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). In daily use of ABENA Nova with MediSens, data privacy is maintained in the following ways: 1.Within the four walls of the care institution, data is personalized and can be used to ensure best possible care of specific residents. Data security is the responsibility of the care institution. 2.Data transmission to the cloud takes place via secure, encrypted lines. Only anonymous data is transmitted with no referral to specific residents. 3.In the cloud, all data stored is anonymous and cannot in any way be associated with specific residents. ABENA’s servers are run and protected by external service partners, specialized in data warehousing and data security. The incontinence product has integrated sensors and a separate personal clip that constantly measures the degree of saturation. The clip sends information to the WetSens Monitor app, allowing caregivers to take timely action when it is time for a change. 4.We apply credentials for access control and run user activity logging to monitor security. Information about incontinence patterns are collected and can be used to optimize care tasks. For the management, the WetSens platform contains valuable insights into the use of incontinence products, peak loads in departments and response times to continuously make sure that residents receive the right care at all times. If you want to know more about the benefits of good continence care, you will find more information in our papers on digital continence care from the perspective of caregivers and residents.
