项目摘要

The low birthrate and long life expectancy among Japanese has created the important need to assess quality of life (QOL) and to promote health in geriatric care. To achieve these important goals, the present research investigated the following three items. (1)The development of a measurement system-additional to vital signs monitoring by such methods as electrocardiography and pulse wave velocity-that is non-restraining and enables prolonged measurement of spoken language, which indicates the wellbeing of the individual. (2)The development of a long-term measurement and functional evaluation system of articulation and deglutition. (3)The establishment of such an e-healthcare system using this measurement system to estimate QOL and promote independence. The present research succeeded in the development of a non-restraining monitoring technology that the listener uses unconsciously, which consists of an electrocardiogram with a conductive fiber electrode placed inside clothing and a setting of an electrode completes only by wearing the wear. Moreover, the present research succeeded in monitoring spoken language by affixing a larynx microphone to skin of the neck. The data of spoken language collected showed the number of times at which a participant laughed, and the amount of time spent talking in one day. Furthermore, measurement of the level of the stress hormone cortisol before and after hearing a humorous story clearly indicated that the stress reduction effect increases as the frequency and duration of laughter increase. Specifically, the effects of the frequency and duration of laughter on stress reduction were clarified for the first time, clearly indicating the importance of list item of e-healthcare system.

日本人的低出生率和长预期寿命产生了评估生活质量（QOL）和促进老年保健健康的重要需求。为了实现这些重要目标，本研究调查了以下三个项目。（1）除了通过心电图和脉搏波速度等方法进行生命体征监测之外，还开发了一种测量系统，该系统不受限制，能够长时间测量口语，这表明了个人的健康状况。（2）构音、吞咽功能的长期测量和功能评价系统的建立。（3）建立一个电子医疗保健系统，使用该测量系统来评估生活质量和促进独立性。本研究成功地开发了一种听众无意识地使用的非约束监测技术，该技术包括将导电纤维电极放置在衣服内的心电图，并且电极的设置仅通过穿着衣服来完成。此外，本研究通过将喉麦克风固定在颈部皮肤上，成功地监测了口语。收集的口语数据显示了参与者一天内笑的次数和说话的时间。此外，在听幽默故事前后对压力荷尔蒙皮质醇水平的测量清楚地表明，随着笑的频率和持续时间的增加，压力减轻效果也会增加。具体而言，笑的频率和持续时间对压力减轻的效果首次澄清，清楚地表明电子医疗系统的列表项的重要性。
