Development of daily support in clothing for severe motor and intellectual disabilities and caretakers

本研究旨在支持重度运动及智力障碍（SMID）患者透过穿著改善其日常生活舒适度，并有助于改善其生活品质。采用非侵入式传感器采集皮肤温度和服装微环境的测量信息。SMID被试观察其昼夜节律和体温调节能力，并将护理刺激反映在服装内的环境上。此外，观察到低温患者会出现排汗活动的可能性。本研究的监测方法是客观评价穿着时因热舒适、皮肤接触和身体压力引起的不适的有效方法。除了对服装的评价外，对日常生活中的各种压力进行客观评价也是一种有效的方法。然后，本研究从长期生物监测数据中观察到，SMIDs的手和脚皮肤温度明显下降。因此，为了提供有效的热舒适条件，建议穿袜子。考虑了使用SMIDs服装的钩环紧固件的强度。此外，与临床护士进行了讨论，并通过试验的方式制作了适合SMIDs的服装。如上所述，考虑到设计，材料和个人更适合SMIDs，并在时装表演中提出穿着SMIDs的模特。(243字)

The purpose of this research is to support the amenity improvement of the daily life of severe motor and intellectual disabilities (SMID) with clothing, and to contribute to the QOL improvement of disabled persons and caretakers. The measurement information of skin temperature and micro environment in clothing was collected by the noninvasive sensors. The circadian rhythm and thermoregulation ability was observed by the SMID's subject, and the stimulus with nursing care was reflected on the environment inside clothing. In addition, the case of hypothermic patient was observed that there would be the possibility of perspiration activities. This monitoring method of this research is effective method to evaluate objectively discomforts which are caused by thermal comfort, skin touch and pressures to the body when wearing clothing. And, it is the effective method to evaluate various stresses in daily life objectively in addition of valuation of clothing. Then, it was observed that hands and feet skin temperature decreased prominently in SMIDs from the long-term biological monitoring data in this research. So, to offer the method of effective thermal comfort condition, the wearing of socks was suggested. It was considered strength of the hook & loop fastener, which was using clothing of SMIDs. Moreover, discusses were conducted with clinical nurses and preferable clothing for SMIDs were manufactured by way of trial. As mentioned above, the clothing were made considering design, materials and the individuals preferable for SMIDs, and proposed in fashion shows with dressed SMIDs models. (243word)
