Engagement and experience of older people with socially assistive robots in home care.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
Social isolation is one of the most common consequences of older people with dementia, especially for those who live at their own dwellings alone due to limited access to social activities. Research relating to the use of social robots in aged care h...

A Telemedicine Robot System for Assisted and Independent Living.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The emerging demographic trends toward an aging population, demand new ways and solutions to improve the quality of elderly life. These include, prolonged independent living, improved health care, and reduced social isolation. Recent technological ad...

Implicit Irregularity Detection Using Unsupervised Learning on Daily Behaviors.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
The irregularity detection of daily behaviors for the elderly is an important issue in homecare. Plenty of mechanisms have been developed to detect the health condition of the elderly based on the explicit irregularity of several biomedical parameter...

A nurse-driven method for developing artificial intelligence in "smart" homes for aging-in-place.

Nursing outlook
OBJECTIVES: To offer practical guidance to nurse investigators interested in multidisciplinary research that includes assisting in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for "smart" health management and aging-in-place.

A conceptual framework for clinicians working with artificial intelligence and health-assistive Smart Homes.

Nursing inquiry
The Smart Home designed to extend older adults independence is emerging as a clinical solution to the growing ageing population. Nurses will and should play a key role in the development and application of Smart Home technology. Accordingly, conceptu...

[Robotic systems for care at home: A scoping review].

Zeitschrift fur Evidenz, Fortbildung und Qualitat im Gesundheitswesen
BACKGROUND: In the future, modern technologies could make a significant contribution to a self-determined life in one's own environment when in need of care. Robots might alleviate everyday domestic life and promote participation. In the nursing scie...

Early anomaly detection in smart home: A causal association rule-based approach.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
As the world's population grows older, an increasing number of people are facing health issues. For the elderly, living alone can be difficult and dangerous. Consequently, smart homes are becoming increasingly popular. A sensor-rich environment can b...

Evaluation of an ontology-based system for computerized cognitive rehabilitation.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: This paper describes the results of a randomized clinical trial about the effectiveness of a computerized rehabilitation treatment on a sample of 31 patients affected by Parkinson disease.

Evaluation of Machine-Learning Approaches to Estimate Sleep Apnea Severity From At-Home Oximetry Recordings.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Complexity, costs, and waiting list issues demand a simplified alternative for sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) diagnosis. The blood oxygen saturation signal (SpO) carries useful information about SAHS and can be easily acquired from overnight ox...

Using Robots at Home to Support Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Socially assistive robots are being developed for patients to help manage chronic health conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Adherence to medication and availability of rehabilitation are suboptimal in this pa...
