Ethics of socially assistive robots in aged-care settings: a socio-historical contextualisation.
Journal of medical ethics
Dec 9, 2019
Different embodiments of technology permeate all layers of public and private domains in society. In the public domain of aged care, attention is increasingly focused on the use of socially assistive robots (SARs) supporting caregivers and older adul...
Effect of a robotic seal on the motor activity and sleep patterns of older people with dementia, as measured by wearable technology: A cluster-randomised controlled trial.
Maturitas
Jan 13, 2018
OBJECTIVES: The robotic seal, PARO, has been used as an alternative to animal-assisted therapies with residents with dementia in long-term care, yet understanding of its efficacy is limited by a paucity of research. We explored the effects of PARO on...
Serum Cardiac Troponin T Levels in Asymptomatic Elderly Nursing Home Residents.
The American journal of medicine
Dec 27, 2017
BACKGROUND: The definition of myocardial infarction relies on elevated troponin levels. However, elevated levels of high sensitive cardiac troponin (hs-cTnT) assays have been reported in elderly patients without acute myocardial infarction. We sought...
