OBJECTIVE: To develop mathematical models for predicting level of independence with specific functional outcomes 1 year after discharge from inpatient rehabilitation for spinal cord injury.
Evaluation of a Home Biomonitoring Autonomous Mobile Robot.
Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Apr 24, 2016
Increasing population age demands more services in healthcare domain. It has been shown that mobile robots could be a potential solution to home biomonitoring for the elderly. Through our previous studies, a mobile robot system that is able to track ...
A comparison of accuracy of fall detection algorithms (threshold-based vs. machine learning) using waist-mounted tri-axial accelerometer signals from a comprehensive set of falls and non-fall trials.
Medical & biological engineering & computing
Apr 22, 2016
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related morbidity and mortality among older adults. Over 90 % of hip and wrist fractures and 60 % of traumatic brain injuries in older adults are due to falls. Another serious consequence of falls among older adu...
Evaluation of an Assistive Telepresence Robot for Elderly Healthcare.
Journal of medical systems
Apr 1, 2016
In this paper we described the telepresence robot system designed to improve the well-being of elderly by supporting them to do daily activities independently, to facilitate social interaction in order to overcome a sense of social isolation and lone...
Bigdata Oriented Multimedia Mobile Health Applications.
Journal of medical systems
Mar 28, 2016
In this paper, two mHealth applications are introduced, which can be employed as the terminals of bigdata based health service to collect information for electronic medical records (EMRs). The first one is a hybrid system for improving the user exper...
Evaluation Studies of Robotic Rollators by the User Perspective: A Systematic Review.
Gerontology
Mar 24, 2016
BACKGROUND: Robotic rollators enhance the basic functions of established devices by technically advanced physical, cognitive, or sensory support to increase autonomy in persons with severe impairment. In the evaluation of such ambient assisted living...
Sequencing bilateral robot-assisted arm therapy and constraint-induced therapy improves reach to press and trunk kinematics in patients with stroke.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Mar 22, 2016
BACKGROUND: The combination of robot-assisted therapy (RT) and a modified form of constraint-induced therapy (mCIT) shows promise for improving motor function of patients with stroke. However, whether the changes of motor control strategies are conco...
