No playing around with robots? Ambivalent attitudes toward the use of Paro in elder care.

Nursing inquiry
This paper explores the ways in which health care professionals, family carers, and older persons expressed attitudes and opinions on using Paro, a social robot designed to stimulate patients with dementia. Thereafter, we critically evaluate existing...

A multimodal machine learning model for predicting dementia conversion in Alzheimer's disease.

Scientific reports
Alzheimer's disease (AD) accounts for 60-70% of the population with dementia. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a diagnostic entity defined as an intermediate stage between subjective cognitive decline and dementia, and about 10-15% of people annual...

Using AI-Based Technologies to Help Nurses Detect Behavioral Disorders: Narrative Literature Review.

JMIR nursing
BACKGROUND: The behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are common among people with dementia and have multiple negative consequences. Artificial intelligence-based technologies (AITs) have the potential to help nurses in the early p...
