Automated Social Interactive Interface to Monitor and Update Intervention Plans for People with MCI, Alzheimer's and Other Dementias

这份由Advanced Medical Electronics Corp.提交的快速通道SBIR申请请求资金，以开发 帮助患有轻度认知障碍、阿尔茨海默病和其他疾病的人的软件系统 让痴呆症患者就地老化，并让他们选择是否以及何时行动。呆在家里是两件事 更受欢迎，价格也更低，但还有许多挑战需要克服。建议的社交网络 交互式界面(SII)，它使用增强智能与目标人群进行对话 自然语言和分析来自物联网设备的数据，将通过缓解 问题行为和照顾者负担；增加服药依从性；减少抑郁，社会 隔离，因脱水和尿路感染而住院，从而降低 关心。SII将了解行为趋势，并确定日常生活活动是否完成。什么时候 检测到异常行为时，它会提醒照顾者。如果SII确定可能发生行为问题， 然后，它将提供及时的心理社会干预(例如，回忆疗法)。最后，SII将保持 时间表，提供即将到来的活动的提醒，并在错过活动时发出警报。AME将与 简单C。在第一阶段，我们将制作社交交互界面的原型并评估其可行性。在第二阶段， 我们将开发社交交互界面，并将其与SimpleC平台集成，并对其效果进行评估。

This fast track SBIR application submitted by Advanced Medical Electronics Corp. requests funds to develop a software system that helps people living with mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer’s disease, and other dementia to age in place and give them the choice whether and when to move. Staying at home is both preferred and less expensive, but there are a number of challenges to overcome. The proposed social interactive interface (SII), which uses augmented intelligence to both converse with the target demographic in natural language and analyze data from “Internet of Things” devices, will address these challenges by relieving problem behaviors and caregiver burden; increasing medication adherence; and reducing depression, social isolation, hospitalizations due to dehydration and urinary tract infections, thereby reducing the overall cost of care. The SII will learn behavioral trends and determine whether activities of daily living are completed. When unusual behavior is detected, it will alert the caregiver. If the SII determines a behavior problem may occur, then it will provide a just-in-time psychosocial intervention (e.g., reminisce therapy). Finally, the SII will keep schedules, provide reminders of upcoming events, and alerts when events are missed. AME will partner with SimpleC. In phase 1, we will prototype the social interactive interface and evaluate its feasibility. In phase 2, we will develop the social interactive interface, integrate it with the SimpleC platform, and evaluate its efficacy.
