Aging brings illness risk
  • Probability of chronic illness increases with age
    (and varies by social class)
  • 80 of older people in community have at least
    one chronic disease
  • Lower social class is associated with earlier
    onset of most chronic illnesses

8
  • Common Chronic Diseases (65)
  • Arthritis -gt 50
  • Hypertension -gt 38
  • Hearing impairments -gt 28
  • Heart Disease -gt 28
  • Mental disorders -gt 20
  • Common causes of death
  • heart disease
  • cancer
  • stroke

9
Motion Detection Applications
  • Rehabilitation Visual feedback of movement to
    aid in self-correction
  • Speech therapy
  • Stroke recovery walking therapy
  • Physical therapy for posture
  • Purpose Provide real time motion tracking of
    movement to compare with movement goal

10
Illness vs. functional health
  • Functional disability increases with age
  • Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)
  • Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs)

11
Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)
  • Mobility
  • Bathing and hygiene
  • Transfers
  • Toileting
  • Dressing
  • Feeding self

12
Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs)
  • Shopping
  • Cooking
  • Housekeeping
  • Finances
  • Transportation
  • Medication Management

13
Cognitive Impairment
  • 5-6 of persons age 65
  • Risk doubles every 5 years
  • gt 85, 35-50 have significant CI

15
Cognitive Impairments Impact
  • Executive Function time, sequencing, impulse
    control
  • Problem-solving
  • Memory
  • Language expressive/receptive/processing
  • Attention

16
Presentation of Clinical Levels of CI
  • Frustration
  • Anger
  • Slow responses
  • Personality changes
  • Memory
  • Difficulty with complex tasks
  • Inappropriate responding
  • Reduced rate of behavior (lack of initiation)

17
Motion Detection Applications
  • Prompting self-care activities
  • Medication management prompt pill taking and
    monitor actual ingestion
  • b) Model actions visually, synchronous in time
    with the target persons efforts to prompt
    step-by-step actions needed in complex sequences

18
Motion Detection Applications
  • Monitoring Safety
  • Tracking location
  • GPS locators map resident location onto
    computerized blueprint of a facility
  • Tracking and prompting while on neighborhood
    walks or drives
  • Tracking falls
  • Movement from bed -gt floor
  • Unusual movement from chair

19
Motion Detection Applications
  • 4) Redirecting or distracting from inappropriate
    movement by cognitively impaired person
  • When entering another residents room or exiting
    building
  • Offering reassurance to agitated person

20
Motion Detection Applications
  • 5) Collaborative cognition
  • Multiple individuals working together often
    notice each others errors and offer corrective
    advice
  • Back-Seat Driving
  • b) Motion sensing devices could offer corrective
    feedback on complex tasks
  • Driving lane changes or tailgaiting
  • Shopping

21
Age-related Changes in Emotion
  • 1. Age impairs detection of negative emotion in
    others
  • a. Deficits in detecting anger and fear
  • b. Maintained ability to detect happy
  • Age blunts intensity of emotional experience

22
Age-related Changes in Emotion
  • Social relationships are selected for emotion
    regulation benefits more than for information or
    exploration
  • Elderly persons are more vulnerable to fraud and
    exploitation due to
  • Cognitive decline impairs reason
  • Emotion function of brain loses acuity

23
Motion Detection Applications
  • Monitoring emotion in elders
  • Those with potential for dangerous behavior
  • Those who show only subtle emotion signals of
    their inner experience
  • Assisting elders with monitoring and interpreting
    emotional cues (e.g., in important legal and
    financial interpersonal conversations or family
    interactions)
