Dx-Care: A Device to Help in the Diagnosis of Care Problems.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The diagnosis of care problems is a complex process that involves many variables and inferences. This competence begins to acquire during the student stage, but matures later. The qualified professional continues to settle and perfect this judgment a...

Predicting Risk of 30-Day Readmissions Using Two Emerging Machine Learning Methods.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Decades-long research efforts have shown that Heart Failure (HF) is the most expensive diagnosis for hospitalizations and the most frequent diagnosis for 30-day readmissions. If risk stratification for readmission of HF patients could be carried out ...

Elements for an Ontology of Care in the Field of Artificial Intelligence.

Studies in health technology and informatics
An ontology of care is a formal, explicit specification of a shared conceptualization. Constructing an ontology is a process that requires four elements: knowledge object, subject that knows, knowledge operation and result. These elements configure t...

Can Staff Distinguish Falls: Experimental Hypothesis Verification Using Japanese Incident Reports and Natural Language Processing.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Falls are generally classified into two groups in clinical settings in Japan: falls from the same level and falls from one level to another. We verified whether clinical staff could distinguish between these two types of falls by comparing 3,078 free...

Robot Utilization for Nursing Technical Support Emphasizing Nurse-Patient Synchronization.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Handing down nursing skills of experienced nurses to newcomer nurses is difficult. Kawano's earlier studies have specifically examined brain wave synchronization between a nurse and patient during intravenous injection. Presumably, a good technique c...

Robotic Implementation of the Necessary Mechanism for the Human Characteristics Simulation: Approach from Self-Care Conceptual Modeling.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The vertiginous development of robotics, as part of the Artificial Intelligence, is currently raising its potential from the point of view of care. The purpose of the present article is the robotic implementation of a logical sequence model of the ph...

Design and Implementation of a Robotic Software for the Assessment of Pain in Children.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Pain in child population is presented as a vital process which produces a variation in capacities and needs of care. That pain has an impact on the child's develpoment and therefore on his self-care agency acquisition. That is why the care provided t...

Development of Teaching Materials of Dementia by Incorporating a Communications Robot for Schoolchildren Who Are Dementia Supporters.

Studies in health technology and informatics
In this study, we aimed to teach elementary school students how to practically deal with elderly people with dementia and developed and evaluated teaching materials using a communication robot called Pepper. The teaching material used the robot to mo...

Towards Phenotyping of Clinical Trial Eligibility Criteria.

Studies in health technology and informatics
BACKGROUND: Medical plaintext documents contain important facts about patients, but they are rarely available for structured queries. The provision of structured information from natural language texts in addition to the existing structured data can ...

Development of a Computer-Aided Dosage and Telemonitoring System for Patients Under Oral Anticoagulation Therapy.

Studies in health technology and informatics
In this paper, we present a system that allows patients who require anticoagulation medicine an opportunity to independently manage their dosage concentration with the help of two machine learning algorithms. The basic idea is to predict the next dos...
