Background: This study investigates electrophysiological distinctions in auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) among individuals with chronic subjective tinnitus, a specific focus on the impact of treatment response and tinnitus localisation. Methods: Early AEPs, known as Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR), middle termed Middle Latency (AMLR), were analysed patients across four clinical centers an attempt to verify increased neuronal activity, accordance current models. Our statistical analyses...
Tinnitus is a highly prevalent condition, affecting more than 1 in 7 adults the EU and causing negative effects on sufferers' quality of life. In this study, we utilised data collected within "UNITI" project, largest tinnitus-related research programme. Initially, extracted characteristics from both auditory brainstem response (ABR) middle latency (AMLR) signals, which were derived tinnitus patients. We then combined these features with patients' clinical data, integrated them to build...
Auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) are brain-derived electrical signals, following an auditory stimulus, utilised to examine any obstructions along the brain neural-pathways and diagnose hearing impairment. The clinical evaluation of AEPs is based on measurements latencies amplitudes waves interest; hence, their identification a prerequisite for AEP analysis. This process has proven be complex, as it requires relevant experience, existing software this purpose little practical use. aim study...
In this paper, we describe the serious games, integrated into PROPHETIC which is an innovating personal healthcare service for a holistic remote management of Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. The main objective three developed games to allow health professionals remotely monitor and appraise overall physical status their significant benefits patients, making use platform, improvement engagement, empowerment and, consequently, provision education about condition its management. design was...
Tinnitus is the perception of a phantom sound and individual's reaction to it. Although much progress has been made, tinnitus remains an unresolved scientific clinical issue, affecting more than 10% general population having high prevalence socioeconomic burden. Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are used assist clinicians in their complex decision-making processes, proved that they improve healthcare delivery. In this paper, we present CDSS for tinnitus, attempting address question...
This poster presents a comprehensive assessment of the transformative potential telehealth ecosystems, integrating Internet Things (IoT), Medical (IoMT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. The study explores their impact on healthcare delivery markets, emphasising need for robust cybersecurity measures technological integration. By facilitating continuous monitoring, personalised interventions, improved patient outcomes, integration advanced technologies in ecosystems has to...
Tinnitus is the perception of sound when no actual external noise present. highly prevalent, with more than 1 in 7 adults EU having tinnitus, and it causes negative effects on quality life for many individuals. However, there currently cure tinnitus its pathophysiology genesis are unknown. Auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) provide a non-invasive means by which electrical signals brain can be recorded, constitute useful indicator evaluation auditory disorders such as hearing loss. The present...
Latest technological developments can provide the tools towards a better future for people with special needs. The present paper focuses on Innovative Technological Interventions Children Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and High Functioning Autism (HFA) main objective to improve their cognitive social skills allow them gain maximum benefit from inclusion within educational system. It addresses opportunity these students personalized accessibility options that will minimize aforementioned...
BACKGROUND: A major concern that is being increasingly addressed in modern educational environments the ability to present equal accessibility opportunities students with neurodevelopmental conditions and disorders as for typically developing children. OBJECTIVE: The main objective of paper employ innovative technological advancements merged evidence-based practices order teach, improve generalise social skills children disorders, specifically High Functioning Autism (HFA) well Attention...
The quest for evidence-based decision making in hearing health has largely remained unfulfilled up until now. One of the main reasons is that comprehensive information on hearing-health related factors entangled with opportunity to make objective comparisons between potential interventions. EVOTION expected provide a game-change this area, by developing Big Data Informed Decision System support policy at several levels. A framework featuring relevant links and models, as latter have been...
Tinnitus is the conscious perception of a phantom sound in absence an external or internal stimulus. More than 1 7 adults EU experience tinnitus and for large proportion them intrusive, persistent, disabling condition, which impairs their life quality. Therefore, posed as major global burden, requires precision-medicine approach terms treatments that are tailored to individual patients, due its high heterogeneity. UNITI research innovation project aims towards this goal, unifying...
The evaluation and control algorithms for the necessity of medical prescription testing, comprises useful tool health professionals. It is beyond doubt that a connection between illness, symptoms, tests prescriptions essential thus facilitating such approaches should be available to Such informatics tools require implementation smart, interactive not just linear, information storing websites. dynamic, their output change based on input as example, in serial symptoms clinical examination...
The main objective of the project is to employ innovative technological advancements merged with evidence-based practices in order teach, improve and generalise social skills for children neurodevelopmental disorders, specifically High Functioning Autism as well Attention Deficit Disorder. BrightBRAINs aims teach core necessary inclusion within mainstream educational environments through use individualised personalized multimodal interfaces. support these children, who may also suffer from...
Social media can be used as a methodology for reducing the knowledge translation gap means of reaching wide audiences and influence governments far their policy making is concerned. However, its impact on health seldom considered. As part EVOTION project, related platform supports acquisition wider feedback through launching social campaigns collection analysis to identify areas improvement in hearing healthcare field. In present paper, we interaction Media Campaigning Tool Decision Support...
Based on the recent statistics published by Stroke Association (UK), first-time incidence of stroke occurs almost 17 million times a year worldwide (one every two seconds), making as second cause death in world. By age 75, 1 5 women and 6 men will have stroke, which is one largest causes disability, half all survivors those persons dependent others (1 are cared for family and/or friends). People living longer celebration, but older people more vulnerable to mental health, cognition physical...
