Leveraging Unsupervised Machine Learning to Discover Patterns in Linguistic Health Summaries for Eldercare.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The Center for Eldercare and Rehabilitation Technology, at University of Missouri, has researched the use of smart, unobtrusive sensors for older adult residents' health monitoring and alerting in aging-in-place communities for many years. Sensors pl...

Predictive Risk Models for Wound Infection-Related Hospitalization or ED Visits in Home Health Care Using Machine-Learning Algorithms.

Advances in skin & wound care
OBJECTIVE: Wound infection is prevalent in home healthcare (HHC) and often leads to hospitalizations. However, none of the previous studies of wounds in HHC have used data from clinical notes. Therefore, the authors created a more accurate descriptio...

Modeling engagement in long-term, in-home socially assistive robot interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders.

Science robotics
Socially assistive robotics (SAR) has great potential to provide accessible, affordable, and personalized therapeutic interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, human-robot interaction (HRI) methods are still limited in...

Using Machine Learning on Home Health Care Assessments to Predict Fall Risk.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Falls are the leading cause of injuries among older adults, particularly in the more vulnerable home health care (HHC) population. Existing standardized fall risk assessments often require supplemental data collection and tend to have low specificity...

Pedbothome: Robotically-Assisted Ankle Rehabilitation System For Children With Cerebral Palsy.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Our research team has developed two versions of an ankle robot for children with cerebral palsy. Both devices provide three degrees of freedom and are connected to an airplane video game. The child uses his/her foot as the controller for the plane an...

The adoption of care robots in home care-A survey on the attitudes of Finnish home care personnel.

Journal of clinical nursing
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: This article examines the attitudes of Finnish home care registered nurses, licensed vocational nurses and other health and social care personnel towards the introduction and use of care robots in home care.

Using Unsupervised Machine Learning to Identify Subgroups Among Home Health Patients With Heart Failure Using Telehealth.

Computers, informatics, nursing : CIN
This study explored the use of unsupervised machine learning to identify subgroups of patients with heart failure who used telehealth services in the home health setting, and examined intercluster differences for patient characteristics related to me...

Adding navigation, artificial audition and vital sign monitoring capabilities to a telepresence mobile robot for remote home care applications.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
A telepresence mobile robot is a remote-controlled, wheeled device with wireless internet connectivity for bidirectional audio, video and data transmission. In health care, a telepresence robot could be used to have a clinician or a caregiver assist ...
