Navigating autonomy, privacy, and ageism in robot home care with aged users: A preliminary analysis of ROB-IN.

Bioethics
In this article, I propose an ethical analysis of assistive domestic robots for older users. In doing so, I illustrate my inquiry with the example of ROB-IN assistive robot. ROB-IN is a Spanish project which is devoted to developing a robot that will...

New care pathways for supporting transitional care from hospitals to home using AI and personalized digital assistance.

Scientific reports
Transitional care may play a vital role in the sustainability of Europe's future healthcare system, offering solutions for relocating patient care from hospital to home, therefore addressing the growing demand for medical care as the population is ag...

Are Wearable ECG Devices Ready for Hospital at Home Application?

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The increasing focus on improving care for high-cost patients has highlighted the potential of Hospital at Home (HaH) and remote patient monitoring (RPM) programs to optimize patient outcomes while reducing healthcare costs. This paper examines the r...

Applying Data Mining to Predict Perceived Benefits Risks of Robotics at Home for Dementia Caregiving Among African American Families.

Studies in health technology and informatics
We used data mining to predict the attitudes of 527 caregivers towards the pros and cons of using robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) for dementia care in African American families, with a focus on family-level factors. African American family ...

Bridging the Gap in Neonatal Care: Evaluating AI Chatbots for Chronic Neonatal Lung Disease and Home Oxygen Therapy Management.

Pediatric pulmonology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the accuracy and comprehensiveness of eight free, publicly available large language model (LLM) chatbots in addressing common questions related to chronic neonatal lung disease (CNLD) and home oxygen therapy (HOT).

Beyond electronic health record data: leveraging natural language processing and machine learning to uncover cognitive insights from patient-nurse verbal communications.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
BACKGROUND: Mild cognitive impairment and early-stage dementia significantly impact healthcare utilization and costs, yet more than half of affected patients remain underdiagnosed. This study leverages audio-recorded patient-nurse verbal communicatio...

Enhancing Patient Medication Safety at Home: A Patient-Facing Technology Architecture Integrating REDCap, Visualization Dashboards, and an AI- Driven Chatbot.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
This work demonstrates a novel architecture for a patient-facing technology (PFT) that supports patients with cancer in self-managing medication concerns and symptoms after care transitions back home. Patient-generated data are collected and stored u...

Glucose trajectory prediction by deep learning for personal home care of type 2 diabetes mellitus: modelling and applying.

Mathematical biosciences and engineering : MBE
Glucose management for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus is essential but challenging due to the multi-factored and chronic disease nature of diabetes. To control glucose levels in a safe range and lessen abnormal glucose variability efficiently a...

Designing a Social Robot Companion to Support Homecare: Usability Results.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Earlier studies show frail seniors often experience loneliness and depression. Moreover, frailty can lead problems with medication and nutrition patterns. The availability of family care and/or nursing care at home is limited. Digital companions, suc...

Evaluation of a Medication Robot Through Participatory Design Methods - A Case Study in Denmark.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The demographics in Denmark are changing. People's life expectancy is increasing, which puts a strain on the home care resources. The aim of this article is to get a deeper insight to how a specific medication robot in elders' homes can be further de...
