Quantitative Monitoring of Disability Care Quality for Long-Term Care Facilities 2

2026年8月19日 更新者:National Health Research Institutes, Taiwan

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a smart wearable wristband-based care system can improve the quality of care and physical activity levels among older adults with disabilities receiving home-based care. The study population includes older adults with disabilities, their family caregivers, and multidisciplinary rehabilitation service providers.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. Whether the use of a smart wearable wristband can improve functional performance, as measured by Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs), and Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) assessments?
  2. Whether the intervention can increase physical activity levels and improve overall care quality, while reducing caregiver burden and enhancing satisfaction?

Participants will:

  1. Wear a smart wearable wristband continuously for 8 weeks to record physical activity data, including step count, activity level, heart rate, and fatigue index.
  2. Undergo assessments at baseline and after the 8-week intervention, including Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs), Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE), and the Chinese Version of the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE-C).
  3. Provide data on caregiver stress, satisfaction, and service utilization for the analysis of care quality.

实验性的:Smart Wearable Wristband Intervention
Participants will receive an 8-week smart wearable wristband-based intervention. The wearable device continuously records physical activity data, including step count, activity level, heart rate, and fatigue index. The intervention also includes a digital care coordination and feedback system to support communication between older adults with disabilities, family caregivers, and multidisciplinary rehabilitation professionals. Outcomes are assessed before and after the intervention.
The intervention consists of an 8-week use of a smart wearable wristband device. The device continuously collects physiological and physical activity data, including step count, activity level, heart rate, and fatigue index. The system provides feedback on activity patterns and supports care coordination among older adults with disabilities, family caregivers, and multidisciplinary professionals through a digital communication system. Data collected from the device will be used to monitor changes in physical activity among older adults with disabilities and to evaluate changes in care quality for family caregivers and multidisciplinary professionals before and after the intervention.

研究衡量的是什么?

主要结果指标

结果测量
措施说明
大体时间
Physical activity level (step count)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Step count in older adults with disabilities will be measured using a smart wearable wristband to assess changes in physical activity before and after the 8-week intervention.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Physical activity level (heart rate)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Heart rate in older adults with disabilities will be measured using a smart wearable wristband before and after the 8-week intervention.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Physical activity level (fatigue index)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Fatigue index in older adults with disabilities will be calculated using the algorithm embedded in the smart wearable wristband system and assessed before and after the 8-week intervention.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Caregivers stress (Scale title: Caregiver Burden/stress Scale)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Caregiver stress in family caregivers will be assessed using a validated caregiver burden/stress scale. The total score ranges from 0 to 36 and will be transformed to a 0-100 scale for analysis. A higher score indicates greater caregiver burden and stress.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Satisfaction with smart wearable wristband system
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Satisfaction with the smart care system will be assessed among multidisciplinary professionals using a structured satisfaction questionnaire. The questionnaire evaluates multiple domains, including usability, applicability, service quality, sustainability, and motivation. Responses are rated using a 5-point Likert scale ranging from very dissatisfied to very satisfied, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)

次要结果测量

结果测量
措施说明
大体时间
Activities of daily living (Scale title: Activities of Daily Living)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Functional status in older adults with disabilities will be assessed using the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater ability to perform activities of daily living.

Instrumental activities of daily living (Scale title: Instrumental Activities of Daily Living scale)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Functional independence in older adults with disabilities will be assessed using the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scale. Scores range from 0 to 34 and will be converted to a standardized 0-100 scale for analysis. Higher scores indicate better ability to perform instrumental activities of daily living.

Intrinsic capacity (Title: Integrated Care for Older People)
大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Intrinsic capacity in older adults with disabilities will be assessed using the Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) framework. The assessment includes cognitive function, mobility, nutritional status, vision, hearing, and depressive symptoms. Higher levels of impairment indicate greater decline in intrinsic capacity.

大体时间:Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
Self-reported physical activity in older adults with disabilities will be assessed using the Chinese Version of the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly (PASE-C). Scores are calculated by weighting different physical activities according to their frequency and duration of performance. Higher scores indicate higher levels of physical activity.
Baseline (0 week) and after intervention (8 weeks)
