Area of Science:

  • Robotics in Healthcare
  • Human-Robot Interaction
  • Patient Safety Technology

Background:

  • Patient falls in healthcare settings pose significant risks.
  • Healthcare provider injuries are a concern.
  • Technology acceptance models guide the evaluation of new healthcare tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the perceived usefulness of robotic assistance for patient ambulation.
  • To assess the potential of robots in preventing patient falls.
  • To explore implications for reducing healthcare provider injuries.

Main Methods:

  • An experimental design with 38 nursing students and one external subject.
  • Comparison of three ambulation methods: gait belt, ARNA with gait belt, ARNA with harness.
  • Analysis of perceived usefulness (PU) using descriptive statistics and regression.

Main Results:

  • Perceived usefulness was significantly higher with ARNA (with gait belt or harness) compared to the gait belt alone (p < .01).
  • Subject demographics (age, race) and prior video game experience did not significantly influence perceived usefulness (p > .05).

Conclusions:

  • Robotic assistance for patient walking is perceived as more effective for fall prevention than traditional methods.
  • Findings support the development of assistive robots to enhance patient safety and healthcare worker well-being.
