Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring01:23

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring

210
Holter monitoring is a continuous electrocardiography (ECG) recording that tracks the heart's electrical activity over an extended period, generally 24 to 48 hours. This noninvasive diagnostic tool detects irregular heart rhythms that may not be captured during a standard ECG performed in a clinical setting.DeviceThe Holter monitor is a portable, small device connected to several electrodes on the patient's chest. These electrodes detect the heart's electrical signals and transmit them to the...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

910
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Smart Home Technology
  • Health Informatics

Background:

  • In-home monitoring technology is essential for developing successful aging-in-place strategies.
  • Monitoring older adults' daily activities provides insights into functional, cognitive, and social health.
  • Understanding how these technologies alter residential environments is crucial for design considerations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To classify recent smart home technologies for monitoring older adults' health.
  • To architecturally describe the application of these technologies in older adults' homes.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review was conducted using four databases (Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, Scopus) in June 2021.
  • Search strings focused on technology types and user types for monitoring older adults' health.
  • Inclusion criteria specified original, peer-reviewed English research on monitoring human behavior; exclusions included reviews and wearable systems.

Main Results:

  • 30 studies (2016-2021) identified six functions: daily activities, abnormal behaviors, cognitive impairment, falls, indoor positioning, and sleep quality.
  • Most research (27 articles) focused on functional monitoring; few (3 articles) addressed social interaction.
  • 16 sensor types were found, with passive infrared motion sensors (21 studies) and contact sensors (19 studies) being most common.

Conclusions:

  • In-home monitoring technologies are vital for aging in place by tracking daily activities and identifying health issues.
  • This synthesis offers a summary of technologies applicable to senior housing and home modifications.
  • Findings are significant for developing effective home modification strategies and new senior housing.
