Personalized Robotic Intervention Strategy by Using Semantics for People with Dementia in Nursing Homes

چکیده
The increasing number of People with Dementia (PwD) increases the strain and burden on caregivers in nursing homes. When PwD exhibit behavioral disturbances, they need personalized interventions of the nursing staff, however, the staff only has limited time to spend on these interventions. Within this paper, an Internet of Robotic Things platform and an accompanying robotic intervention strategy are presented that enable the nursing staff to rely on robots to assist them during these personalized interventions.

However, the effects of a music intervention using this tool have not been investigated so far. This leads to the following research question: How does a music inte...
متن کاملPain Intervention for people with Dementia in nursing homes (PID): study protocol for a quasi-experimental nurse intervention
BACKGROUND It is estimated that 19 to 83% of people with dementia suffer from pain that is inadequately treated in the last months of life. A large number of healthcare workers who care for these people in nursing homes lack appropriate expertise and may therefore not always recognise, assess and treat pain in those with dementia who have complex problems on time, properly and efficiently. The ...

متن کاملImplementing the compassion intervention, a model for integrated care for people with advanced dementia towards the end of life in nursing homes: a naturalistic feasibility study
BACKGROUND Many people with dementia die in nursing homes, but quality of care may be suboptimal. We developed the theory-driven 'Compassion Intervention' to enhance end-of-life care in advanced dementia. OBJECTIVES To (1) understand how the Intervention operated in nursing homes in different health economies; (2) collect preliminary outcome data and costs of an interdisciplinary care leader ...
متن کاملThe Economics of Dementia-Care Mapping in Nursing Homes: A Cluster-Randomised Controlled Trial
BACKGROUND Dementia-care mapping (DCM) is a cyclic intervention aiming at reducing neuropsychiatric symptoms in people with dementia in nursing homes. Alongside an 18-month cluster-randomized controlled trial in which we studied the effectiveness of DCM on residents and staff outcomes, we investigated differences in costs of care between DCM and usual care in nursing homes. METHODS Dementia s...
