The brain-computer interface (BCI) field has grown dramatically over the past few years, but there are still no coordinated efforts to ensure efficient communication and collaboration among key stakeholders. European Commission (EC) recently renewed their establish such a coordination effort by funding support action for BCI community called ‘BNCI Horizon 2020’ after ‘Future BNCI’ project. Major goals of this new project include developing roadmap next decade beyond, encouraging discussion...
Background Integrated care can generate health and social efficiencies through the defragmentation of adoption patient-centered preventive models. eHealth be a key enabling technology for integrated care. Objective The aim this study was to assess effectiveness cost-effectiveness implementation mobile (mHealth)-enabled model complex chronic patients. Methods As part CONNECARE Horizon 2020 project, prospective, pragmatic, two-arm, parallel trial held in rural region Catalonia, Spain. During 3...
Osteoarthritis is a disabling condition that often associated with other comorbidities. Total hip or knee arthroplasty an effective surgical treatment for osteoarthritis when indicated, but comorbidities can impair their results by increasing complications and social economic costs. Integrated care (IC) models supported eHealth increase efficiency through defragmentation of promote patient-centeredness.This study aims to assess the effectiveness cost-effectiveness implementing mobile health...
Current brain-computer interface software is often tailored to the needs of scientists and technicians therefore complex allow for versatile use. To facilitate home use interfaces (BCIs) a multifunctional P300 BCI with graphical user intended non-expert set-up control was designed implemented. The system includes applications spelling, web access, entertainment, artistic expression environmental control. In addition new software, it also hardware recording electroencephalogram (EEG) signals....
Comprehensive assessment of integrated care deployment constitutes a major challenge to ensure quality, sustainability and transferability both healthcare policies services in the transition toward coordinated service delivery scenario. To this end, manuscript articulates four different protocols aiming at assessing large-scale implementation care, which are being developed within umbrella regional project Nextcare (2016-2019), undertaken foster innovation technologically-supported for...
Background Integrated care (IC) can promote health and social efficiency through prioritization of preventive patient-centered models defragmentation collaboration across tiers, mobile (mHealth) be the cornerstone allowing for adoption IC. Objective This study aims to assess acceptability, usability, satisfaction an mHealth-enabled IC model complex chronic patients in both professionals. Methods As part CONNECARE Horizon 2020 project, a prospective, pragmatic, 2-arm, parallel, hybrid...
This article describes a Digital Health Framework (DHF), benefitting from the lessons learnt during three-year life span of FP7 Synergy-COPD project. The DHF aims to embrace emerging requirements - data and tools applying systems medicine into healthcare with three-tier strategy articulating formal healthcare, informal care biomedical research. Accordingly, it has been constructed based on three key building blocks, namely, novel integrated services support information communication...
Cognitive rehabilitation is established as a core intervention within programs following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Digitally enabled assistive technologies offer opportunities for clinicians to increase remote access supporting transition into home. Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems can harness the residual abilities of individuals with limited function gain control over computers through their waves.This paper presents an online cognitive application developed therapists, work...
The BackHome system is a multi-functional BCI system, the final outcome of User Centred Design approach, whose ambition to move systems from laboratories into home people in need for their independent use. paper presents results testing and evaluation with end-users at own homes. Results show moderate good acceptance end-users, caregivers therapists; which reported promising usability levels, user satisfaction levels control use services support based on remote monitoring tools.
Chronic diseases (CD) are generating a dramatic societal burden worldwide that is expected to persist over the next decades. The challenges posed by epidemics of CD have triggered novel health paradigm with major consequences on traditional concept disease and profound impact key aspects healthcare systems. We hypothesized development systems approach understand together generation an ecosystem transfer acquired knowledge into scenario may contribute cost-effective enhancement outcomes. To...
Background Home hospitalization is widely accepted as a cost-effective alternative to conventional for selected patients. A recent analysis of the home and early discharge (HH/ED) program at Hospital Clínic de Barcelona over 10-year period demonstrated high levels acceptance by patients professionals, well health value-based generation provider health-system levels. However, risk assessment was identified an unmet need with potential enhance clinical decision making. Objective The objective...
Behaviour change interventions targeting physical activity, diet, sleep and sedentary behaviour of teenagers show promise when delivered through smartphones. However, to date there is no evidence effectiveness multicomponent smartphone-based interventions. Utilising a user-centred design approach, we developed theory-based, multi-dimensional system, PEGASO Fit For Future (PEGASO F4F), which exploits sophisticated game mechanics involving smartphone applications, activity sensors motivate...
The main objective of this roadmap is to provide a global perspective on the BCI field now and in future. For readers not familiar with BCIs, we introduce basic terminology concepts. We discuss what BCIs are, can do, who benefit from BCIs. illustrate our arguments use cases support messages. After reading you will have clear picture potential benefits challenges steps necessary bridge gap between current future applications, impact society next decade beyond.
In this article, key points are discussed concerning knowledge representation for clinical decision support systems in the domain of physical medicine and rehabilitation. Information models, classifications terminologies, such as “virtual medical record” (vMR), “international classification functioning, disability health” (ICF), diseases” (ICD) “systematized nomenclature medicine—clinical terms” (SNOMED CT), used integration reasoning. A system is described that supports measuring...
