• Authors: Bj\"orn Friedrich, Enno-Edzard Steen, Sebastian Fudickar, Andreas Hein
• Abstract summary: We show the correlation among data of ambient motion sensors and the well-established mobility assessments. The evaluation on a real-world dataset shows a moderate to strong correlation with the scores of standardised geriatrics physical assessments.

• Abstract: A continuous monitoring of the physical strength and mobility of elderly people is important for maintaining their health and treating diseases at an early stage. However, frequent screenings by physicians are exceeding the logistic capacities. An alternate approach is the automatic and unobtrusive collection of functional measures by ambient sensors. In the current publication, we show the correlation among data of ambient motion sensors and the well-established mobility assessments Short-Physical-Performance-Battery, Tinetti and Timed Up & Go. We use the average number of motion sensor events as activity measure for correlation with the assessment scores. The evaluation on a real-world dataset shows a moderate to strong correlation with the scores of standardised geriatrics physical assessments.

  Engagement measurement finds application in healthcare, education, services. Use of physiological and behavioral features is viable, but impracticality of traditional physiological measurement arises due to the need for contact sensors. We demonstrate the feasibility of the unsupervised photoplethysmography (rmography) as an alternative for contact sensors.

  Acuity assessments are vital in critical care settings to provide timely interventions and fair resource allocation. Traditional acuity scores do not incorporate granular information such as patients' mobility level, which can indicate recovery or deterioration in the ICU. In this study, we evaluated the impact of integrating mobility data collected from wrist-worn accelerometers with clinical data obtained from EHR for developing an AI-driven acuity assessment score.
