简要总结
The instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) refer to complex daily activities required for adult independence, such as preparing a meal or taking medications. This study will assess the efficacy of sensing technologies (smartwatch, computer vision, eye tracking) for recognizing IADL activities in naturalistic settings and score performance relative to ratings from occupational therapists. If successful in assessing the efficiency of IADL, the sensing technologies will be a valuable addition to geriatric assessment.
详细描述
With declines in motor and cognitive function, even older adults living independently may be less efficient in performing daily activities, such as cooking and light housekeeping, which may signal an impending need for caregiver support and healthcare services. Clinicians currently lack automated tools for detecting early declines in daily activity. This research will assess the utility of motion sensors and computer vision assessment in detecting early deficits in the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), in this case structured cooking and cleaning tasks performed in a standardized kitchen. Older adults with normal cognitive status and those with mild cognitive impairment will be recruited from a research registry to assess differences in performance.
