Sensors help seniors age at home
COLUMBIA, MO - A pilot program at University of Missouri shows promise with the use of sensor technology to help aging adults remain in their homes longer while being monitored by care providers.
哥伦比亚--密苏里州大学的一项试点项目表明当老年人被保健供应商通过传感技术进行监测时，该传感技术的使用有望使老年人留在家中的时间延长。
Marjorie Skubic, a professor of electrical and computer engineering in the MU College of Engineering, and Marilyn Rantz, a curator's professor of nursing in the MU Sinclair School of Nursing, have received a grant from the National Science Foundation to expand their work to a facility in Cedar Falls, Iowa.
Marjorie Skubic，MU大学工程学院电子计算机工程学教授，Marilyn Rantz，MU Sinclair学校护理学护理监理教授，他们已经得到了国家科学基金会对该项目在爱荷华州雪松瀑布市拓展应用的授权。
Skubic and Rantz have used motion-sensing technology to monitor changes in residents' health for several years at TigerPlace, an eldercare facility in Columbia, Mo. With the NSF grant, fiber networking in Columbia and Cedar Falls will provide the infrastructure necessary for healthcare providers in Missouri to remotely monitor the health of elderly residents in Iowa. In addition, high-speed video conferencing technology will enable communication between staff and residents at the two locations.
Skubic和Rantz已经应用动态传感技术来监督哥伦比亚密苏里州老年福利部TigerPlace的老年人数年来的健康。在美国国家科学基金会的授权下，哥伦比亚和爱荷华州雪松瀑布市的光纤网络将为密苏里的健康服务提供者提供必要的基础设施以实现对爱荷华州老年居民健康的远程监控。此外，高速电视会议技术将使两地的管理方和民众的交流有实现的可能。
"Using what we're already doing at TigerPlace and deploying it at the facility in Cedar Falls will allow us to further test the concept of remote health care," said Rantz in a written statement.
Rantz声明，“使用我们在TigerPlace所用的技术并将其设施配置到雪松瀑布市，才能使我们更深入的检测远程护理关怀的理念。”
Adults obviously want to stay independent as they age, but for many, health problems mean moving to assisted-care facilities where they can be observed by medical professionals.
This new pilot could pave the way for many similar projects offering seniors a much greater degree of independence. The researchers say it could help identify early changes in health - key to maintaining health, independence and function for older adults, the researchers said.
随 着年龄的增长，成年人显然想要独立生活，但是很多人，健康问题意味着他们必须搬到能由医学专业人员提供照顾设施的地方。这项新的试点能为许多类似的项目 ——为老年人提供更广意义的独立性生活——奠定基础。研究人员表示该项目有助于老年人识别健康的早期变化——保持健康的关键所在，独立自主及其功能。
Equipping their elderly patients with sensors "allows us to unobtrusively monitor their health changes based on their individual activity patterns and baseline health conditions," said Rantz.
Rantz说，已配备该传感器的老年人“允许我们在他们个体活动模式和健康状态基础之上不显眼地检测他们的健康变化”。
The in-home monitoring systems use proactive, rather than reactive, ways of monitoring seniors' health, according to Rantz, offering automated data that alert care providers when patients need assistance or intervention. The sensors will include video gaming technology for measuring residents' movements in the home, and the researchers will integrate new hydraulic bed sensors that will monitor an individual's pulse, respiration and restlessness.
家用的监测系统采用前瞻性而不是反应性的方式监测老年人的健康，Rantz任务，这样可以提供自动化的数据来警示监控者何时他们的患者需要援助或干预。传感器包括可测量客户家中运动量的视频游戏技术，研究人员将整合可监测个体脉搏、呼吸、心跳的新型液压床传感器。
"We're using high-speed networks to solve real-world problems," said Skubic. "Implementing the health alert system in Cedar Falls will tell us how the approach we use at TigerPlace compares to other settings. It will be an important step toward facilitating independent housing, which is where most seniors want to be."
“我们应用高速网络来解决现实问题”，Skubic说，“在雪松瀑布市执行健康预警制度将告诉我们与其他设施相比在TigerPlace所用的方法如何。独立居所，几乎是每个老年人想要的，对此而言这将是很重要的一步。”
"The sensors help identify the small problems--before they become big problems," Rantz said. "Based on the data collected by the sensors, health providers can offer timely interventions designed to change the trajectory in individuals' functional decline."
“传感器帮助识别小问题—在他们变成大问题之前。基于传感器所搜集的数据，健康管理供应商可以提供旨在改变个体功能下降的及时干预措施。”
A study published earlier this year from UK-based Juniper Research suggests that the number of patients monitored by mobile networks could reach 3 million by 2016. "Remote patient monitoring will step in to reduce the cost burden of unhealthy lifestyles and aging populations," said the report's author Juniper associate analyst Anthony Cox.
今年早些时候由英国调研机构发布的研究表明移动网络提供的病人监护仪的数量到2016年将达到三百万。报告作者调研机构副研究员Anthony Cox说，“远程健康监护仪将减少不健康生活方式和老龄化人口的经济负担。”
