Summary

The objective of this study is to assess the usability and acceptance of the CAREUP solution in improving the quality of life at home of the older adults. The CAREUP solution is a platform that collects data from different tools such as tablets, smartwatches, ambient sensors, iHealth weight scale, and Digital Hand Dynamometer. .

Detailed description

The objective of this study is to assess the usability and acceptance of the CAREUP solution at home in primary (older adults), secondary (informal caregivers) and tertiary (doctors and geriatrics) end users. The CAREUP solution is a platform that collects data from different tools such as tablets, smartwatches, ambient sensors, iHealth weight scale, and Digital Hand Dynamometer. The study will comprehends two phases: a pre-pilot and pilot phases.The pre-pilot phase will test new user interfaces and games with 5 older adult (primary users) and 5 informal caregiver (secondary) in each site (Italy, Romania, Austria) for at least 1 week. This phase will only focus on primary endpoints (usability and acceptance). The pilot phase will investigate platform usability, acceptance and efficiency of developed Intrinsic Capacity (IC) evaluation algorithms, reliability and security. At least 30 primary and 15 secondary and some tertiary users (doctors and geriatrics) will be enrolled in each country (Italy, Romania, Austria) for 12 months. This phase will focus on both primary and secondary endpoints.
