    National audienceLe projet e-monitor'age vise à développer un système d'aide à la supervision des résidents en EHPAD (Etablissement d'Hébergement pour Personnes Agées Dépendantes). L'originalité de l'approche est que ce système (multicapteur et logiciel) est développé via une conception participative, c'est-à-dire main dans la main avec les personnels afin de répondre aux vrais besoins des " end users " et que son acceptabilité par ces personnels soit la meilleure possible

    A Scoping Review Exploration of the Intended and Unintended Consequences of eHealth on Older People:A Health Equity Impact Assessment

    eHealth is one perceived mechanism to extend the range and reach of limited health-care resources for older adults. A decade-scoping review (2007–2017) was conducted to systematically search and synthesize evidence to understand the intended and unintended consequences of eHealth initiatives, informed by a health equity impact assessment framework. Scoping review sources included international academic and grey literature on eHealth initiatives (e.g., eHealth records, telemedicine/telecare, and mobile eHealth application) focused on the varying needs of older adults (aged 60+), particularly individuals experiencing sociocultural and economic difficulties. Findings suggest that eHealth has several potential benefits for older adults, but also the possibility of further excluding already marginalized groups, thereby exacerbating existing health disparities. Ongoing evaluation of eHealth initiatives for older adults is necessary and requires attention to unique individual-level, socioeconomic, and cultural characteristics to heighten benefits and better capture both the intended and unintended outcomes of advanced eHealth systems.peerReviewe

    Aging-in-place: The influence of Covid-19 on smart device acceptance

    Covid-19 and the increasing population of older adults in developed countries have increased the need for alternative solutions for preventative health and long-term care. Smart homes and other assistive technology have been proposed as a solution to detect health problems early and prevent major issues later, provide better care access through telemedicine solutions, and support the autonomy of older adults with cognitive or physical issues who wish to continue to live in their homes. Rural older adults' acceptance of assistive technology is understudied compared to other groups, but the few studies available indicated that many tend to reject it. However, Covid-19 may increase interest in the technology, and the goal of this project was to determine if rural Oklahoman older adults' acceptance of the technology has increased enough for it to be implemented. This is a qualitative study that used Grounded Theory coding to determine common themes of participants to determine the level of acceptance. Interviews indicated that acceptance is still low for some devices but that rural older Oklahomans may consider other remote health instruments for specific conditions, fall detection, and home security devices if recommended by a doctor and if their issues with the technology, such as self-image, independence, and financial concerns, were resolved. If the acceptance of these devices is increased in the future, it may be possible to provide better preventative care for rural Oklahomans, detecting problems early and treating the main issues to delay major health complications. This could narrow healthcare disparities between urban and rural older adults, especially during special situations like pandemics

    Designing an Intelligent Health Monitoring System and Exploring User Acceptance for the Elderly

    Recently, many healthcare or health monitoring systems are proposed to improve life quality of the elderly in the aging process. The elderly are generally with poor health and low information literacy. Low information literacy might be an obstacle of using such systems. This research considered the characteristics and the needs of the elderly and developed an intelligent health monitoring system for the elderly with low information literacy living in the nursing home. The system is intelligent since it can monitor the health status of the elderly based on clinical and medical knowledge, provide an easy-to-understand and easy-to-use user interface for the elderly, and automatically send important or emergency feedback to caregivers. Finally, we explored the user acceptance for the elderly using our proposed system based on the unified theory of acceptance and user of technology model. The experimental results indicate the developed system is highly accepted by the elderly in terms of performance expectation, endeavor expectation, social influence, and facilitating condition

    Objectives. This cross-sectional study in lung transplant recipients (LTR) described acceptance and use of a smartphone application, Pocket PATH®, for health self-monitoring and decision support for reporting critical values in 12 months post-transplantation; and explored predictors of use and reporting. Methods. This secondary analysis, guided by the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology, included 96 LTR randomly assigned to the Pocket PATH group. Intention to use was measured at baseline. Due to skewness, use (percentage of days used) in 0 to 2, > 2 to ≤ 6, > 6 to ≤ 12, and 0 to 12 months was categorized as Low, Moderate, and High, using 25% and 75% as cutoffs. Reporting critical values was dichotomized as 100% and < 100% reporting. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize data and logistic regressions were employed to explore predictors of use and reporting. Results. About 85% of LTR were very likely to use Pocket PATH. However, intention was not associated with use. Use decreased across four time intervals. Self-care agency interacted with gender (OR=0.94, p=0.04) and satisfaction with technology training (OR=0.93, p=0.02) in 0 to 2 months. Use from > 2 to ≤ 6 months was predicted by satisfaction with technology training (OR=3.00, p=0.03), and age interacted with psychological distress (OR=0.96, p=0.04). Use after 6 months was predicted by psychological distress (OR=0.42, p=0.04) and physical function (OR=1.07, p=0.04). Use from 0 to 12 months was predicted by age (OR=1.05, p=0.03), satisfaction with technology training (OR=2.78, p=0.05) and physical function (OR=1.09, p=0.03). Among 53 (55.2%) LTR with critical values detected, 62.3% (n=33) had 100% reporting. With increased technology experience, odds of 100% reporting decreased in men but increased in women (OR=0.21, p=0.03). LTR whose income met basic needs (OR=0.01, p=0.02), or with longer hospital stay (OR=0.94, p=0.01), were less likely to have 100% reporting. Moderate use group was less likely to report than High (OR=0.11, p=0.02) and Low (OR=0.04, p=0.02) use groups. Conclusion. Use of mobile technology for health self-monitoring and for reporting critical values was predicted by different factors. Clinicians should assess LTR at risk for poor use and reporting
