Opinion versus practice regarding the use of rehabilitation services in home care: an investigation using machine learning algorithms.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Resources for home care rehabilitation are limited, and many home care clients who could benefit do not receive rehabilitation therapy. The interRAI Contact Assessment (CA) is a new screening instrument comprised of a subset of interRAI H...

Feasibility study into self-administered training at home using an arm and hand device with motivational gaming environment in chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Assistive and robotic training devices are increasingly used for rehabilitation of the hemiparetic arm after stroke, although applications for the wrist and hand are trailing behind. Furthermore, applying a training device in domestic set...

Knowledge-Based Query Construction Using the CDSS Knowledge Base for Efficient Evidence Retrieval.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Finding appropriate evidence to support clinical practices is always challenging, and the construction of a query to retrieve such evidence is a fundamental step. Typically, evidence is found using manual or semi-automatic methods, which are time-con...
