The introduction of clinical information systems has increased the amount documentation. Although this documentation generally improves patient safety, it become a time-consuming task for nurses, which limits their time with patient. On basis user-centered methodology, we have developed mobile app named BEDSide Mobility to support nurses in daily workflow and facilitate at bedside.

Objective: Despite the increasing use of home-based monitoring technologies by older adults, few studies have examined adults' acceptance these technologies, especially among people from diverse cultural groups. The purpose this study was to explore Korean and American attitudes toward perceptions in a context. Methods: A qualitative analysis focus groups individual interviews using inductive coding methods constant comparative approach for emerging themes conducted.Results: Several factors...

Mobility is a key factor in the performance of many everyday tasks required for independent living as person ages. The purpose this mixed-methods study was to test theory-based mobility monitoring protocol by comparing sensor-based measures self-report and assess acceptability in-home sensors with older adults. Standardized instruments measure physical, psychosocial, cognitive parameters were administered 8 community-dwelling adults at baseline, 3-month, 6-month visits. Semi-structured...

Objective: To examine older adults' attitudes toward multifunctional technology tools and specific preferences expectations that would maximize their utility usability. Methods: We held three focus group sessions for this pilot study to determine perceptions of adults wellness tools, including usefulness barriers use. Areas discussed included features be wanted or unwanted, form factor context Recordings were transcribed qualitative content analysis was performed. Results: Fourteen...

Objective: To explore older adults' preferences regarding e-health applications through use of generated concepts that inform wellness tool design.Methods: The 6-8-5 method and affinity mapping were used to create design ideas translated into storyboards scenarios. Focus groups conducted obtain feedback on the prototypes included participant sketching. A qualitative analysis focus for emerging themes was conducted, sketches analyzed.Results: Forty-three adults participated in six group...

The personal health information management (PHIM) of older adults is poorly understood. We describe initial results from the SOARING (Studying Older Adults & Researching Information Needs and Goals) study at University Washington, a particpatory design investigation PHIM in adults. conducted in-depth interviews with (n=71) living variety residential settings. A surprising 21% participants reported using patient portals. Another 17% prior use or anticipated portals future. identified...

Sensor technologies are designed to assist independent living of older adults. However, it is often difficult for adults make an informed decision about adopting sensor technologies.To explore Bruce's framework making (IDM) in-home use in community-dwelling elders.The IDM guided development a semi-structured interview. A theory-driven coding approach was used analysis.Participants supported most the elements framework, but not all aspects each element were addressed. Perceived usefulness...

In this work, we consider a number of problems defined on the triangular lattice with $n$ rows, which will denote as $T_n$. Define \textit{proper coloring} to be an assignment colors points $T_n$ such that no three constituting vertices equilateral triangle all receive same color, and by $f(n)$ smallest possible can used in proper coloring We either determine exactly or give upper bounds for many small values $n$, it is shown $\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{f(n)}{n} \leq \frac13$. also formulas...

For $d > 0$, define $G(\mathbb{Q}^3, d)$ to be the graph whose set of vertices is rational space $\mathbb{Q}^3$, where two are adjacent if and only they a Euclidean distance $d$ apart. Let $\chi(\mathbb{Q}^3, chromatic number such or, in other words, minimum colors needed color points $\mathbb{Q}^3$ so that no at apart receive same color. An open problem, originally posed by Benda Perles 1970s, asks there exists d) = 3$. Through numerous efforts over years, has been determined for many...

Given positive integers $m$ and $r$, define $C_m(r)$ to be the minimum odd number of $\mathbb{Z}^m$ vectors, each magnitude $\sqrt{r}$, that together sum zero vector. In this article, is investigated for various assignments $r$. A few previous results are combined definitively answer question except in case $m=3$ square-free part $r$ being even also containing at least one prime factor $x$ with $x \equiv 2 \pmod 3$. We detail a computer-assisted search determine $C_3(r)$ all $r < 10^6$ then...
