Poster Abstract Poster Abstract A. Assistive Products R333 Hands free body dryer (dry by yourself) Dr. Olga Patricia Barragan Vesga, Horacio Galeano Zabala, Inventionspro, Colombia ABSTRACT HANDS FREE BODY DRYER (DRY BY YOURSELF) PROBLEM OR CHALLENGE: Target group: People living with handicap, elderly and obese people with motor deficiency that prevents them from using a towel and reach areas such as: armpits, back; skin folds (obesity), feet (diabetics), among others. Background: Currently these people are in need of a carer to help them dry their body with a towel, exposing themselves to risks of dermatitis or skin mycoses. This practice extends the third part dependency and lack of autonomy. METHOD: Description: This device is a body dryer that does not require the motor manual skills that are necessary to use a towel. Even dries inaccesible areas achieving an optimal drying level, it is easy to use, accurate for people with motor and coordination deficiencies and without help from third parties. CONCLUSIONS: It is useful to improve self care (body care) of people living with disabilities, obese and elderly people; allows body drying through ventilation hands free, improving their autonomy and quality of life. Note: Fan is not part of the invention. Recommended fan: temperature and flow adjustable. R177 Manual wheelchairs are great! But… Dr. Dafne Zuleima Morgado Ramirez, Catherine Holloway, University College London, United Kingdom Long term manual wheelchair (MW) self-propulsion causes prevalent problems such as shoulder pain due to subacromial impingement (42-66% incidence), wrist pain due to carpal tunnel syndrome (49-73% incidence), and general upper limbs muscular pain. The current approach to prevent such injuries is: appropriate and timely provision of wheelchair, and skills training. For long term MW users that already have injuries and pain, the current treatment approach is: physiotherapy, pain killers, surgery or switching to an electric wheelchair. Power assist devices use motors that drive the wheelchair back wheels to help the users self-propel with demonstrated reduction of effort, pain and injuries. We interviewed nine MW users regarding their needs and expectations on adding assistance for propelling their wheelchairs. We also reviewed the power assist devices available. We have found that although MW users understood the benefits of using powered propelling assistant devices, the technology is not widely used due to lack of awareness and unaffordability. A high quality, affordable, open source, fully mechanical and lightweight assist device is needed. While waiting for researchers to create such high quality affordable device, we recommend MW users to use tricycles or lever drive propulsion, when possible, instead of the standard inefficient handrim propulsion. R281 Floss pick fastener Dr. Horacio Galeano Zabala, Olga Patricia Barragan Vesga, Inventionspro, Colombia ABSTRACT FLOSS PICK FASTENER PROBLEM OR CHALLENGE: Target group: People living with handicap or elderly people with motor or coordination deficiency, particularly those who can not do pincer grasp between index finger and thumb. Background: Currently, these people are in need of a carer to help them develop oral care with dental floss; or without its use, exposing themselves to risks of periodontal complications and caries. This practice extends the third part dependency and lack of autonomy. METHOD: Description: This device is a holder for floss picks that allows the self use of dental floss without help from third parties, including people with motor and coordination deficiencies from different origens. The conformation of the set of pieces allows an appropriate subjection to carry out the interdental cleaning in spite of the insufficient grip in the people with motor deficiencies. Due to its shape, lenght and other characteristics allows fasten it and it is easy to use. CONCLUSIONS: It is useful to improve self care (oral hygiene) of people living with handicap and elderly people, improving their preventive oral health and quality of life autonomously. Note: Floss picks are not part of the invention, they are complementary products A88 Arm sled Dr. Horacio Galeano Zabala, Olga Patricia Barragan Vesga, Inventionspro, Colombia ABSTRACT ARM SLED PROBLEM OR CHALLENGE: Target group: People living with handicap: Upper mobility disorders: Spinal injuries (Quadriplegia, quadriparesis), arm limitations; neurologic, progressive and degenerative disorders, etc., and elderly people. They are prevented to use by self pencils, pens, paintbrushes, PC keyboards, tablets, smartphones, among others. Background: Currently these people are in need of a carer to help them make desktop handmade activities which extends the third part dependency and lack of autonomy. METHOD: Description: This device is a desktop support for arm activities when they are disabled, with difficulties to raise or sustain high, or to be fastly tired, etc. It does not require the neural or muscular ability that is regularly necessary to lift up, move and sustain the arm on or over the table. It is very useful to use desktop tools, accurate for people with mobility disorders and without help from third parties, which makes desktop work easier. CONCLUSIONS: Facilitate the sliding of the upper member both anteroposteriorly and rotatably on the table. It is useful to improve productive and entertainment desktop activities of people living with handicap like upper mobility disorders and elderly people, improving their autonomy and quality of life. R553 Towar ds better and more equal continence care Ms. Eszter K acskovics, SCA Hygiene Products; Dr Gyula Markovics, SCA Hygiene Products Introduction: Incontinence is a heavily stigmatizing set of diseases affecting almost 400 million people worldwide, with growing prevalence in ageing population. Despite its high prevalence, tough psychosocial and economic implications, it is still a taboo. Cure rates are low, absorbent products are included in the APL, but there is little guidance on how good symptomatic continence care should look like. This results in low awareness, lack of prevention; late and sub-optimal care; unequal access to and non-appropriate use of devices. Findings and recommendation: Patient profiling is under-developed, and product classifications in medical device databases hardly make any differentiation between the available product types. On the other hand, proper product selections based on defined patient needs are proven to have significant impact on the dignity, well-being, and social integration of patients and careers. To ensure the availability and accessibility of appropriate absorbent products, the following needs to be in place: • revised and aligned medical device code databases for absorbent products • defined patient profiles considering disease specifics and patient’s dependency level • clear links between these profiles and recommended product types combined in a care guideline. Workshop: How to ensure these issues are addressed and acted upon in national policies? R296 Motion analysis for supervision of medication intake Prof. Maria Elena Algorri, Technische Hochschule Köln, Germany Studies show that 35 to 50% of all prescription medication in Germany are not taken correctly or at all. We use motion capture and analysis to build a system that can help supervise if a patient takes his/her medications orally. Our system analyses the motion in a 3D scene and detects events where a user holds a glass (of a particular color) and takes it to his/her mouth (as if to take the medications orally) by fusing color, contour and depth information extracted from an optical camera and a 3D depth sensor. The system is able to spatially track arbitrary objects that have been color segmented from the video stream and to analyze the motion of the user. To recognize a drinking action we fuse the information about the pose of the user with the 3D position of the segmented glass. We present the methodology used for color calibration, color segmentation, 3D motion tracking and information fusion and show that the system performs robustly for different user poses as well as under different ambient conditions. The system is easily expandable to recognize other actions of the patient and his interaction with different objects. B. Health Information Systems: Medical Device Issues R43 Mobile phone microscope imaging for eHealth applications at low resource setting; image processing for automatic CBC Mr. Mulugeta Mideksa Amene, Independent, Ethiopia A new mobile phone microscope imaging device will be developed for use in malaria parasite and TB bacteria detection. The new device will work in both white light and fluorescence settings. The work promotes early detection and protection of malaria and TB epidemics. Uses the “JossyBME.com” web site which services as Atlas or as the laboratory image library to compare the tool is cost effective and can be used easily by health extension workers (HEW) and promotes telemedicine applications such as tel-laboratory, tel-pathology, tel-radiography and other e-health systems there-by supporting the national e-health strategy. An image processing scheme will also be developed for automated Red Blood Cell (RBC) count on images acquired through the new coupled system. In this regard, a rigorous mathematical algorithm will be developed.
