Multilevel Features for Sensor-Based Assessment of Motor Fluctuation in Parkinson's Disease Subjects.
IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Sep 26, 2019
Motor fluctuations are a frequent complication in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) where the response to medication fluctuates between ON states (medication working) and OFF states (medication has worn off). This paper describes a new data anal...
Developing assistive robots for people with mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia: a qualitative study with older adults and experts in aged care.
BMJ open
Sep 24, 2019
OBJECTIVES: This research is part of an international project to design and test a home-based healthcare robot to help older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or early dementia. The aim was to investigate the perceived usefulness of differe...
Fusing Object Information and Inertial Data for Activity Recognition.
Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Sep 23, 2019
In the field of pervasive computing, wearable devices have been widely used for recognizing human activities. One important area in this research is the recognition of activities of daily living where especially inertial sensors and interaction senso...
Unilateral vs Bilateral Hybrid Approaches for Upper Limb Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
Aug 14, 2019
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of unilateral hybrid therapy (UHT) and bilateral hybrid therapy (BHT) compared with robot-assisted therapy (RT) alone in patients with chronic stroke.
Effects of a robot intervention on visuospatial hemineglect in postacute stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial.
Clinical rehabilitation
Aug 13, 2019
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of an intervention using the robot device PARO on visuospatial hemineglect and activities of daily living, and its acceptance during stroke rehabilitation. PARO is an interactive robotic toy with the appearance of a...
Home rehabilitation supported by a wearable soft-robotic device for improving hand function in older adults: A pilot randomized controlled trial.
PloS one
Aug 6, 2019
BACKGROUND: New developments, based on the concept of wearable soft-robotic devices, make it possible to support impaired hand function during the performance of daily activities and intensive task-specific training. The wearable soft-robotic ironHan...
Community-dwelling older adults' needs and acceptance regarding the use of robot technology to assist with daily living performance.
BMC geriatrics
Aug 5, 2019
BACKGROUND: The rate of aging in Korea is extremely fast compared to major countries. We examined the key demands of community-dwelling older adults with regard to Connected Active Space technology, which provides tailored assistance with daily livin...
Ankle torque steadiness and gait speed after a single session of robot therapy in individuals with chronic hemiparesis: a pilot study.
Topics in stroke rehabilitation
Aug 1, 2019
Anklebot therapy has proven to be effective in improving hemiparetic gait. However, neither ankle torque steadiness nor the relationship between changes in force control and functional tasks after therapy with Anklebot were described. To assess whet...
Simplifying models and estimating grasp performance for comparing dynamic hand orthosis concepts.
PloS one
Jul 25, 2019
While designing a dynamic hand orthosis to assist during activities of daily living, the designer has to know whether a concept will have sufficient grasp performance to support these activities. This is often estimated by measuring the interaction f...
Assistive robots to improve the independent living of older persons: results from a needs study.
Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
Jul 22, 2019
BACKGROUND: More than 70% of elderly people age 80 and older are experiencing problems in personal mobility. Assistive robotics can represent a concrete support providing also a support for caregivers, clinicians and nurses by reducing their burden.
