  18. Usually healthy aging

  19. Worldwide but differences in life expectancy

  20. Population mondiale

  21. Gero(n)technologyDefinition • Crossed and multidisciplinary approach between gerontology and technology • Gerontology: sciences of aging under its different aspects • Technology: technics applied to the production of goods and services answering needs of daily living CORNET G., Revue Hospitalière de France, 1999, n°2, 82-5.

  22. GerontechnologyFinality To improve quality of life To improve quality of care For aging and elderly persons For frail and/or disabled persons

  23. GerontechnologyGoals of prevention • To protect or restore autonomy • To improve the comfortin the ADL • To improve the efficacyin the IADL • To protectsocial links by developing technical aids • To create a favourable environment in order to prevent or compensate functional disabilities

  24. GerontechnologyA paradox • technologies are invading the society • New and performing tools for elderly patients, caregivers • decrease (?) of learning capacities for elderly persons • Gap at risk to generate exclusion • Two worlds apparently distant “Les chassés-croisés entre la technique et le social" Françoise BOUCHAYER (CNAV), Alain ROZENKIER (MIRE), French gov. Report, 1999

  25. GerontechnologyMoving World: International Society of Gerontechnology 1991 1st Congress in Eindhoven (NL) 1991-1996 EU Programs: COST A5, TIDE, 5th and 6th RDCP 1996 Congress in Helsinki 2002 Congress in Miami CORNET G., Revue Hospitalière de France, 1999, n°2, 82-5. France 2002 Groupe Français de Gérontechnologie de la SFGG Institut de la Longévité (France): genetics, clinical research, gerontechnology… but gave up…

  26. GerontechnologyWays for action • A method: user centered • Identification of the needs of end users and intermediate users • Step by step evaluation of solutions (iteration) • Global expectations are different from younger population • Integration of aged persons in the process

  27. A collaboration: multidisciplinarity obvious for gerontologists. ergonomy, communication, computer, robotics, domotics, micro-electronics, biotechnology, « design for all », for the weakest Brakes: sociology, psychology, legal , professional and ethical aspects, fear instrumentalisation Brakes: divergence between actors (target person, caregiver, nurse, doctor, financing…) Brakes: costs and economy GerontechnologyWays for action

  28. Five aspects for Gerontechnology • Prevention • Support of social activity and links • Compensation of functional disabilities and handicap • Aid for professional and informal caregivers • Education and research Institute for Gerontechnology - Eindhoven, NL

  29. GerontechnologyPrevention • Sensorial progressive loss (vision, audition) • Prevention of trauma (hip protector) • etc… Not enough financing Difficulties to assess

  30. GerontechnologySupport of social activity and links • (Télé)communications • Multimedia • Internet • Tele-assistance • Telemedicine • User-friendly

  31. GerontechnologyCompensation disabilities and handicap • Vital functions • Cognitive funct.: memory, executive • Object handling • Sensorial perception : auditive, visual, tactile • Move in, out • Preservation of elderly Citizenship

  32. GerontechnologyAid for caregivers • Telemedicine and home care • Home care coordination • Virtual consultation • Chronical diseases management • Patient and caregiver education • ViSaDom

  33. GerontechnologyEducation and research • Teaching of aging processes for the technologists • Progressive adaptation of workers to their job • Work organization and management of aging workers • Education for all in new technologies • Age groups integration • New jobs care/techno • Assess the quality of education and research

  34. End-users of gerontechnologies Maslow’s pyramid for needs

  35. End-users of gerontechnologies Maslow’s pyramid for needs The market

  36. Intermediate users of gerontechnologies Intermediate users : Medical care services • Hospital (including home hospitalisation) • Social care services (nursing home, home care, social services) • Health professionals (physicians, nurses) • Bio-medical material providers • Telecommunication companies • Computer science companies • Etc…

  37. Financing gerontechnologies • End-user itself • Family or substitute • Foundations • Social insurance system • Health care system • City or community solidarity • (Welfare) state

  40. GARDIEN: nocturnal activity: paroxystic agitation

  41. GARDIEN: nocturnal activity: chronical agitation (sleep disorders)
