Socially-Assistive Robots Using Empathy to Reduce Pain and Distress during Peripheral IV Placement in Children.

Pain research & management
OBJECTIVES: Socially-assistive robots (SAR) have been used to reduce pain and distress in children in medical settings. Patients who perceive empathic treatment have increased satisfaction and improved outcomes. We sought to determine if an empathic ...

Effects of Robot-Assisted Gait Training in Individuals with Spinal Cord Injury: A Meta-analysis.

BioMed research international
BACKGROUND: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on spasticity and pain in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). . Four electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Medline, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) we...

Initial classification of low back and leg pain based on objective functional testing: a pilot study of machine learning applied to diagnostics.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
OBJECTIVE: The five-repetition sit-to-stand (5R-STS) test was designed to capture objective functional impairment and thus provided an adjunctive dimension in patient assessment. The clinical interpretability and confounders of the 5R-STS remain poor...

Machine-learned identification of psychological subgroups with relation to pain interference in patients after breast cancer treatments.

Breast (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND: Persistent pain in breast cancer survivors is common. Psychological and sleep-related factors modulate perception, interpretation and coping with pain and may contribute to the clinical phenotype. The present analysis pursued the hypothes...

Using machine learning to understand neuromorphological change and image-based biomarker identification in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels with Chiari-like malformation-associated pain and syringomyelia.

Journal of veterinary internal medicine
BACKGROUND: Chiari-like malformation (CM) is a complex malformation of the skull and cranial cervical vertebrae that potentially results in pain and secondary syringomyelia (SM). Chiari-like malformation-associated pain (CM-P) can be challenging to d...

Machine Learning to Understand the Immune-Inflammatory Pathways in Fibromyalgia.

International journal of molecular sciences
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic syndrome characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, and physical and emotional symptoms. Although its pathophysiology is largely unknown, immune-inflammatory pathways may be involved. We examined serum interleuki...

Response to repeat echoendoscopic celiac plexus neurolysis in pancreatic cancer patients: A machine learning approach.

Pancreatology : official journal of the International Association of Pancreatology (IAP) ... [et al.]
BACKGROUND: /Objectives: Efficacy of repeat echoendoscopic celiac plexus neurolysis is still unclear. Aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of repeat celiac plexus neurolysis and to build an artificial neural network model able to predict pain ...

Children's Fear and Pain During Medical Procedures: A Quality Improvement Study With a Humanoid Robot.

The Canadian journal of nursing research = Revue canadienne de recherche en sciences infirmieres
BACKGROUND: Pediatric patients undergo a variety of painful medical procedures.

Feasibility of a Real-Time Clinical Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence Framework for Pain Detection and Localization From the Brain.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: For many years, clinicians have been seeking for objective pain assessment solutions via neuroimaging techniques, focusing on the brain to detect human pain. Unfortunately, most of those techniques are not applicable in the clinical envir...

Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Networks for the Automatic Quantification of Muscle Fat Infiltration Following Whiplash Injury.

Scientific reports
Muscle fat infiltration (MFI) of the deep cervical spine extensors has been observed in cervical spine conditions using time-consuming and rater-dependent manual techniques. Deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) models have demonstrated st...
