Socio-economic revitalisation of sparsely populated areas through clinical telecare using health 4.0 approach
Background: The regions of south-west Europe are demographically ageing and their inland rural areas are becoming increasingly depopulated, leading to their disappearance. Examples of these territories with low population density are the regions of Castilla y León (Spain), Beira Baixa (Portugal) and Pays Basque (France). The COVID has highlighted the lack of health and care for people in these rural areas, especially the elderly and dependent peo…
Multisource data for monitoring and intervention of loneliness in the elderly
Loneliness is harmful to health like smoking, obesity or environmental pollution and is considered a critical public health issue. Studies report that between 24.7% and 33% of people feel lonely. In the population over 80 years it has increased since 1970 from 11% to 50%. Loneliness increases a person’s risk of premature death from all causes, including dementia and heart disease. In the elderly, it causes difficulty in maintaining an independent…
EEG and fNirs Data for Pain Monitoring and Detection in a Neurofeedback System
Pain represents a disagreeable sensory and emotional sensation usually stemming from real or potential harm to bodily tissues [1]. It's a unique experience that varies from person to person due to its inherently subjective nature, influenced by biological, psychological, and social factors [2]. Over the course of life, individuals develop their understanding of pain. When it comes to conveying pain, it's not confined to verbal descriptions alone,…

Emotions, the sensations that evoke feelings, play a pivotal role in shaping our memories. They serve as the architects, carefully selecting and preserving significant life events in a more enduring manner. Typically, we tend to retain experiences that leave a profound impact on us. However, as we age, cognitive decline sets in, particularly marked by a diminishing memory capacity. Our present identity is a product of our past experiences, render…
Group Sessions Performance Feedback System to Promote Physical Activity and Heath Decisions- Making
Introduction: In recent times, there has been a boom in data analytics in different sectors (banking, retail...) this type of task facilitate decision-making or helps to better understand the needs of patients/users. Now, these techniques are also starting to be implemented in the world of physical activity, with different objectives. Among them may be the prevention/prediction of injuries, or obtaining the maximum performance, but they are also …
Assessment of a technological solution for helping elderly to monitor and mitigate frailty
frAAgiLe is a health focused, digital based project that aims at becoming a holistic system for monitoring and dealing with the symptoms of frailty in senior users around Europe. Throughout the last 2 years, the digital solution has been tested in different healthcare and wellbeing centres in Europe. The users ́feedback has been positive and the implementation of AI algorithms has become possible after the creation of the necessary databases. The…
Technological Platform for online training to elderly citizens in Biomedical Engineering and Health Sciences as a tool of self-training to empower them towards an integrated care
HealthTEK is a platform for hybrid learning addressed to both elderly people and intergenerational students, interested in engineering and medicine. The rationale between this combination is to create synergies between any age students and scholars from both fields in order to improve the knowlege in future health systems within the European Union, to allow them to be empowered in terms of integrated care to allow them to be more autonomous. The …
Big Data and IoT system using a serverless architecture for monitoring and intervention of loneliness in the elderly
An accelerated growth in the life expectancy of the elderly is being caused by medical advancements in recent decades and the decline in birth rates. Therefore, comprehensive care of the elderly represents a major issue. In addition, loneliness and depression have become major emotional disorders of high incidence in this sector of the population, causing difficulty in maintaining an independent life. Thus, this area of attention deserves great a…
Usability, acceptance, and results of a digital solution based on Dapas serious games among elderly
The International Journal of Integrated Care (IJIC) is an online, open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles in the field of integrated care on a continuous basis.IJIC has an Impact Factor of 5.120 (2020 JCR, received in June 2021)The IJIC 20th Anniversary Issue was published in 2021
Executive Functioning in Adults with Down Syndrome
The study of executive function decline in adults with Down syndrome (DS) is important, because it supports independent functioning in real-world settings. Inhibitory control is posited to be essential for self-regulation and adaptation to daily life activities. However, cognitive domains that most predict the capacity for inhibition in adults with DS have not been identified. The aim of this study was to identify cognitive domains that predict t…
Serious Games as an Integrated Care tool to support elderly people quality of Life
ContextIt is well known that each year the amount of elderly people is increasing and the life expectancy is longer in EU countries. So, obviously, it is important to include new tools in the socio-sanitary system to maintain and improve the life of quality of this target group.ObjectiveThe objective of this practice is to give alternative solutions though the technology. It has been developed a tool composed by package of video games to promote …
An iPad-Based Tool for Improving the Skills of Children with Attention Deficit Disorder
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), with a worldwide prevalence of 5.29%-7.1%, is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders among children and adolescents. Apart from typical symptoms like inattention, hyperactivity and impulsiveness, patients also evidence attention deficit problems with reading comprehension. This in turn causes poor school performance and widens the gap with peers without ADHD. This paper presents a nove…
Adaptive Tele-Therapies Based on Serious Games for Health for People with Time-Management and Organisational Problems
Attention Deficit with Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most prevalent disorders within the child population today. Inattention problems can lead to greater difficulties in completing assignments, as well as problems with time management and prioritisation of tasks. This article presents an intelligent tele-therapy tool based on Serious Games for Health, aimed at the improvement of time management skills and the prioritisation of tasks…
