Evaluation of Technologies for Psychosocial Intervention
The chapter 'Evaluation of technologies and products for psychosocial intervention and support for and with people living with dementia' delves into the techniques and methodologies used in evaluating designs created collaboratively under the 'Designing for people with Dementia' (MinD) program. Expanding on the MinD program, this chapter encompasses a wider array of tools catering to formative evaluation to enhance the psychosocial well-being of dementia patients. It focuses on how technology can be leveraged to provide effective intervention strategies and support for individuals living with dementia.
Usability of Web-based Tools for Dementia Communication
The journal article 'Usability of web-based tools designed for communication and decision-making in dementia: systematic review and design brief' addresses the increasing trend in web-based tools tailored for individuals with dementia and their family caregivers. These tools aim to facilitate communication and decision-making processes, crucial for those affected by cognitive decline. By conducting a systematic review and proposing a design brief, this study sheds light on the importance of user-friendly digital solutions for enhancing communication and decision-making abilities in the context of dementia.
Optimizing eHealth Implementation for Dementia Care
The presentation at the 33rd Alzheimer Europe Conference, titled 'Optimizing implementation of eHealth for dementia: Lessons from developing an eHealth Implementation Readiness (EmpRess) checklist', underscores the significance of eHealth interventions in addressing the escalating costs and challenges associated with dementia care. The lack of evidence-based eHealth solutions implemented in practical scenarios poses a significant challenge. The session provides an insightful perspective on optimizing eHealth implementation by adapting existing approaches, thereby enhancing the delivery of quality dementia care through technology.
Remote Measurement Technology for Neurological Conditions
The journal article 'Clinical Perspectives on Using Remote Measurement Technology in Assessing Epilepsy, Multiple Sclerosis, and Depression: Delphi Study' focuses on leveraging remote measurement technology (RMT) in evaluating chronic central nervous system conditions like epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and depression. Through a Delphi study involving patients and clinicians, this article explores the benefits of RMT over traditional assessment methods, offering a new dimension in assessing and managing neurological disorders effectively.
Enhancing Healthcare through Remote Measurement Technology
In the journal article 'Making remote measurement technology work in multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and depression: a survey of healthcare professionals', the discussion revolves around the challenges faced in assessing conditions like epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and depression through repeated visits. Surveying healthcare professionals involved in managing these neurological disorders sheds light on the potential of remote measurement technology to streamline assessment processes and improve patient outcomes.
