Resumen

This article extends an understanding of how the embodied nature of work, in this case nursing work, is reformed by workplace technologies. It outlines how technological advancements helped to partially restore the physical and psychological perforations inflicted on those performing nursing work. However, the transitions to remote nursing analysed here also undermined the prospects for future professional advancement. By analysing how technologies can disrupt embodied practices within the occupational field of nursing, the article provides both an empirical and a theoretical contribution to existing research on embodiment and work.

Resumen

The tele–intensive care unit (ICU) provides a remote monitoring system that adds an additional layer of support for critically ill patients. However, to optimize contributions, the bedside team must incorporate this resource into the patient’s plan of care. Using the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses’ Healthy Work Environment Standards as a platform, we can create and nurture a new partnership model. Strategies that embrace the standards of skilled communication, true collaboration, and effective decision making become mutual goals for improving patient safety and outcomes. Joint communication guidelines facilitate timely and meaningful communication. Trust and the desire to cooperate encourage provider engagement to strengthen collaboration. The use of tele-ICU technology can assist in the interpretation and transformation of data to affect decision making at all levels to influence patient care. Through the lens of the healthy work environment, the tele-ICU/ICU partnership provides enhanced opportunities for improved patient care and team satisfaction.

Resumen

Requests for tele-medicine are rapidly growing. We are now used to being constantly connected to the internet via laptops, smartphones and, recently, tablet computers. The next step is to have access to work-related data, such as echocardiographic images. The continuous and rapid growth of echocardiography as the mainstream cardiac imaging modality (40 %), and the use of portable ultrasound devices, are stimulating this request for tele-echocardiography. With the diagnostic quality of the tablet computer screens, the future of tele-echocardiography looks bright.

Resumen

Background Families living with Alzheimer disease and related dementias have more access to support thanks to the development of effective telehealth-based programs. However, as technological science grows, so does the risk that these technology-based interventions will diverge from foundational protocols, diluting their efficacy. Strategies that ensure programs are delivered as intended, with fidelity to guiding protocols, are needed across the intervention spectrum—from development to wide-scale implementation. Few papers address fidelity in their technology-based work. Here, we present our translated telehealth intervention, Tele-STAR, with our fidelity findings. Objective This study aimed to assess the preliminary efficacy of Tele-STAR on reducing family caregiver burden and depression. Across the implementation phases, we assessed the fidelity of a caregiver education intervention, STAR-C, as it was translated into a telehealth option (Tele-STAR). Methods A total of 13 family caregivers consented to participate in an 8-week, videoconference-based intervention (Tele-STAR). Tele-STAR efficacy in reducing the affective burden of caregiving was assessed using pre- and postintervention paired t tests. Content experts assessed program fidelity by reviewing and rating Tele-STAR materials for adherence to the original STAR-C protocol. These experts assessed treatment fidelity by viewing videos of the intervention and rating adherence on a checklist. Results Tele-STAR reduced caregiver burden and retained good program and treatment fidelity to STAR-C. Conclusions We found Tele-STAR reduced caregiver burden and had good fidelity to the original protocol. Assessing fidelity is a complex process that requires incorporation of these procedures early in the research process. The technology used in this study facilitated the accrual of informative data about the fidelity of our translated intervention, Tele-STAR.

Resumen

Background: While quality health-care is considered a fundamental human right for all citizens; the challenge remains in making it accessible to all. Information systems have been identified as possible solution that can be used to alleviate disparity between rural and urban healthcare services and bridge the digital divide. Literature has suggested that one of the barriers for successful implementation of health information system is the user acceptance by health care personnel. The main objective of this study is to assess perceived usefulness, relative advantages of telemedicine technology among health personnel of selected district.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, using Semi-structured questionnaire. Data was collected from research participants from PHCs of Bijapur district, during July to November 2017.Results: In general the health-care personnel were aware of the benefit of tele-medicine to improve effectiveness and efficiency of the health care system. The barriers to the effective implementation of tele-medicine include lack of knowledge and lack of awareness regarding use and usage of the tele-medicine system.Conclusions: Health care personnel do acknowledge that tele-medicine can help to increase the effectiveness of the healthcare system. In general the acceptance of tele-medicine among healthcare personnel is positive. However in order to integrate it into standard work practices, specific training and capacity building for tele services is essential among health care personnel.

Resumen

Robot human-like behavior can enhance the performance of human–robot cooperation with prominently improved natural interaction. This also holds for redundant robots with an anthropomorphic kinematics. In this article, we translated human ability of managing redundancy to control a seven degrees of freedom anthropomorphic robot arm (LWR4+, KUKA, Germany) during tele-operated tasks. We implemented a nonlinear regression method—based on neural networks—between the human arm elbow swivel angle and the hand target pose to achieve an anthropomorphic arm posture during tele-operation tasks. The method was assessed in simulation and experiments were performed with virtual reality tracking tasks in a lab environment. The results showed that the robot achieves a human-like arm posture during tele-operation, and the subjects prefer to work with the biologically inspired robot. The proposed method can be applied in control of anthropomorphic robot manipulators for tele-operated collaborative tasks, such as in factories or in operating rooms.

Resumen

Health services in the United States and Europe have reported that tele-orthopaedics saves significant patient travel time, reduces time off work, increases satisfaction with care and in some scenarios reduces the cost of care. Less is known about the role of tele-orthopaedics in Australia. The aim of this study was to explore Australian-based tele-orthopaedic services, and to identify the barriers and enablers associated with these services. We used a qualitative case study methodology where specific services were identified from multiple sources and invited to participate in a structured interview. Nine tele-orthopaedic services contributed to the study. Telehealth activity in each service ranged from one to 75 patients per week, and service maturity ranged from three months to 10 years. Services were used predominantly for fracture clinics and peri-operative consultations. The majority (78%) of services used videoconferencing. Two services used asynchronous methods to review radiographs without direct patient involvement. Tele-orthopaedics was found to be disruptive as it required the redesign of many care processes. However, all services found the redesign feasible. Staff resistance was a commonly cited barrier. Further, imaging repositories from multiple imaging providers complicated access to information. Key enablers included clinical champions, picture archiving and communication systems, and the perceived benefit to patients who would avoid the need for travel. Whilst it appears that tele-orthopaedics is not widely utilised in Australia, recognition of the barriers and enablers is important for the development of similar services.

Resumen

BackgroundThere is a strong policy drive towards implementing alternatives to face-to-face consultations in general practice to improve access, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. These alternatives embrace novel technologies that are assumed to offer potential to improve care.AimTo explore the introduction of one online consultation system (Tele-Doc) and how it shapes working practices.Design and settingMixed methods case study in an inner-city general practice.MethodThe study was conducted through interviews with IT developers, clinicians, and administrative staff, and scrutiny of documents, websites, and demonstrator versions of Tele-Doc, followed by thematic analysis and discourse analysis.ResultsThree interrelated themes were identified: online consultation systems as innovation, managing the ‘messiness’ of general practice consultations, and redistribution of the work of general practice. These themes raise timely questions about what it means to consult in contemporary general practice. Uptake of Tele-Doc by patients was low. Much of the work of the consultation was redistributed to patients and administrators, sometimes causing misunderstandings. The ‘messiness’ of consultations was hard to eliminate. In-house training focused on the technical application rather than associated transformations to practice work that were not anticipated. GPs welcomed varied modes of consulting, but the aspiration of improved efficiency was not realised in practice.ConclusionTele-Doc offers a new kind of consultation that is still being worked out in practice. It may offer convenience for patients with discrete, single problems, and a welcome variation to GPs’ workload. Tele-Doc’s potential for addressing more complex problems and achieving efficiency is less clear, and its adoption may involve unforeseeable consequences.

Resumen

Rural and remote communities often have complex and diverse mental health needs and inadequate mental health services and infrastructure. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) provide an array of potentially innovative and cost-effective means for connecting rural and remote communities to specialist mental health practitioners, services, and supports, irrespective of physical location. However, despite this potential, a review of Australian and international literature reveals that ICT has not attained widespread uptake into social work practice or implementation in rural communities. This article reviews the social work literature on ICT, draws on research on tele-psychology and tele-education, and provides suggestions on how to enhance engagement with ICT by social workers to implement and provide mental health services and supports tailored to community values, needs, and preferences that are commensurate with the values of the social work profession.

Resumen

BackgroundPrevious short-term work reported fewer suicides among elderly users of a telephone helpline and emergency response service (the Tele Help–Tele Check Service).AimsTo examine long-term effects of the service on suicide in an elderly population of northern Italy.MethodThe service provided twice-weekly support and needs assessment telephone calls and a 24 h emergency alarm service. Data from 1988 to 1998 allowed comparison of 18 641 service users with a comparable general population group of the Veneto region in Italy.ResultsSignificantly fewer suicide deaths (nOBSERVED=6) occurred among elderly service users (standardised mortality ratio (SMR) 28.8%) than expected (nEXPECTED=20.86; χ2=10.58, d.f.=1, P < 0.001) despite an assumed overrepresentation of persons at increased risk. The service performed well for elderly females (nOBSERVED=2, SMR=16.6%, nEXPECTED=12.03; χ2=8.36, d.f.=1, P < 0.001).ConclusionsThe study confirms the initial promise of the Tele Help–Tele Check service over a much longer time period. Further research will clarify the apparent lack of benefit for elderly males.

Resumen

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 have resulted in social isolation, reduced social support system, and increased domestic violence (DV) cases against women and children. The governments and NGOs have taken several measures to prevent DV by starting helpline, WhatsApp numbers, and counseling services during the lockdown to safeguard the women. This paper describes a case scenario of how we offered tele-case work consultation during the lockdown period due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the procedure adopted, and preventive measures followed while providing a tailor-made psychosocial intervention to a DV survivor. It also discusses the strengths and challenges while offering tele-consultation and possible steps to overcome the technological barriers to mental health professionals.

Resumen

In a tele-abrasive task, it is principally human arm movements that cause variation in the position of the abrasive nozzle, thereby resulting in high operating costs and low productivity. It is difficult to design a system that can minimize the variation that accrues from operators behaving differently, which is difficult to predict. Although skilled operators can reduce this variation, becoming a skillful operator requires a lengthy training period. In this work, a two-stage variation streaming technique was used to extract variation sources in a tele-abrasive system. Furthermore, we propose an integrated human–computer approach to control variation in these systems—an approach that applies an innovative human arm movement pattern incorporated with a Kalman filter into a standard system. A virtual tele-abrasive system was used to validate our approach. Furthermore, compared with conventional systems, the proposed approach will help operators to perform abrasive tasks more comfortably and require a shorter training period.

Resumen

Background The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has exacerbated staffing challenges already facing critical care nurses in intensive care units. Many intensive care units have been understaffed and the majority of nurses working in these units have little experience. Objective To describe how the skilled tele–intensive care unit nurses in our health system quickly changed from a patient-focused strategy to a clinician-focused approach during the coronavirus disease 2019 crisis. Methods We modified workflows, deployed home workstations, and changed staffing models with the goal of providing additional clinical support to bedside colleagues while reducing exposure time and conserving personal protective equipment for those caring for this highly contagious patient population. The unit changed focus and granted more than 300 clinicians access to technology that enabled them to care for patients remotely, added nearly 200 mobile carts, and allowed more than 20 tele–intensive care unit nurses to work from home. Results Tele–intensive care unit nursing provided clinical knowledge to the nurses covering current and expanded critical care units. Using technology, virtual rounding, and increased collaboration with nurses, tele–intensive care unit nursing minimized the risk to bedside nurses while maintaining a high level of care for patients. Conclusion Tele–intensive care unit nurses provided a proactive, holistic approach to caring for critically ill patients via camera as part of their routine workflow. In addition, during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, these nurses created a new strategy in virtual health care to be implemented during a crisis.

Resumen

272 Background: MSK is deploying teleoncology solutions that improve the patient experience, quality of care, and enhance patient access. MSK’s teleoncology mission is to utilize digital technology as a mainstream channel for connected care across the cancer continuum. Methods: Teleoncology programs were established between Manhattan and four regional sites in support of Psychiatry, Genetic Counseling, and Supportive Care. MSK’s “Virtual Programs” delivered tele-education and tele-support to patients and caregivers in their home or place of work to prepare them for each stage of their care. Patient acceptability ratings were evaluated for quality of care, ease of use, interaction quality, and satisfaction and future use. Results: The four programs generated 7563 teleoncology visits. Virtual Programs served 3865 patients over 766 sessions. Fifty-eight percent (N = 2269) of patients participated in group education sessions (8.3±1.2 patients per session), while 41.3% (N = 1596) participated in support groups (3.2±0.3 patients per session). Overall, 60% of Virtual Program sessions were delivered to patients at home, and 20% to patients at work. Tele-genetics counseling was provided to 3516 patients. The majority of tele-genetics sessions occurred at regional sites (61.4%). Thirty-eight patients completed 159 telepsychiatry visits (4.2±5.8 visits/patient). In Supportive Care, 23 patients completed 38 visits (1.6±1.4 visits/patient). Patients saved 95 minutes of travel time per teleoncology visit. Acceptability ratings for teleoncology were collected from 1185 patients (15.7%). Ninety-one percent of patients were satisfied or extremely satisfied with their teleoncology experience, 95.6% with the information they received, 94.4% with the skill of the provider, and 86.3% with the ease of use of the teleoncology platform. Conclusions: Teleoncology offers an innovative means of providing cancer care to patients by decreasing the stress of travel, missed work, and caregiver requirements. Patients reported that teleoncology made care more accessible and allowed them to remain in their community with family support. For clinicians, teleoncology expanded patient outreach, and improved patient adherence.

Resumen

Over the past few years, software applications for medical assistance, including tele-rehabilitation, have known an increasing presence in the health arena. Despite the several therapeutic and economic advantages of this new paradigm, it is important to follow certain guidelines, in order to build a safe, useful, scalable, and ergonomic tool. This work proposes to address all these points, through the case study of a physical tele-rehabilitation platform for patients after hip replacement surgery. The scalability and versatility of the system is handled by the implementation of a modular architecture. The safeness and effectiveness of the tool is ensured by an artificial intelligence module that assesses the quality of the movements performed by the user. The usability of the application is evaluated by a cognitive walkthrough method. Results show that the system (i) is able to properly assess the correctness of the human’s motion through two possible methods (Dynamic Time Warping and Hidden Markov Model), and (ii) provides a good user experience. The discussion addresses (i) the advantages and disadvantages of the main approaches for a gesture recognition of therapeutic movements, and (ii) critical aspects to provide the patient with the best usability of a tele-rehabilitation platform.

Resumen

e14153 Background: Cancer treatment is becoming more complex, necessitating subspecialty expertise and multidisciplinary approaches to treatment planning. Simultaneously, there is increasing demand to provide care as close to home as possible. Oncology services are in high demand with a geographical mismatch between where oncologists work and where patients live. Traditionally, patients have been required to travel long distances to seek care outside of their communities resulting in increased financial expense and emotional distress caused by leaving the comforts of their support system. Leveraging existing technologies, most of modern cancer care, including infusions can be delivered through a coordinated effort from consulting/ordering oncologists, onsite administrators, physicians, nurses and ancillary staff. Methods: Using a secure video-conferencing platform, Intermountain Healthcare has implemented 5 tele-oncology clinics (Site A- Sevier, UT; B- Cassia, ID; C- Teton, ID; D- Uintah Basin, UT, E- Star Valley, WY) in rural communities of Utah, Idaho and Wyoming. Patients are referred to the clinic by local providers. With the assistance of a nurse navigator, oncologists meet with patients via video conference for initial consults, follow-up, supportive care, survivorship care and systemic treatment including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. Standard NCCN/ASCO guidelines are followed in the treatment strategies for these patients. Care is taken to ensure any treatment that can safely be delivered in the local facility/community is coordinated to take place there. Based on distances from the rural facility to nearest tertiary cancer center, we calculated the mileage avoided and hours traveled avoided by using tele-oncology. Results: Since 2017, the tele-oncology service has managed 269 unique patients (A- 200; B- 21, C- 22, D- 18, E- 8) with 1,237 total tele-oncology visits (A- 1,068; B- 69; C- 39; D- 32; E- 29). In total, there were 397,326 driving miles avoided (A- 326,808; B- 26,358; C- 22,932; D- 9,280; E- 11,948). Travel hours avoided in total were 6,062 hours (A- 4,989; B- 380; C- 341; D- 155; E- 197). Conclusions: Intermountain Healthcare’s tele-oncology program benefits patients and communities by easing travel burden and improving quality of life by making cancer care more convenient and providing the care closer to home. Work is ongoing to prospectively evaluate the effects on the communities in addition to cancer related outcomes.

Resumen

Introduction There remain a number of UK military veterans who are not able to access psychological therapies for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some of these barriers are practical, including the need to balance work and other life commitments with attendance at residential or outpatient appointments. There is a need to investigate more accessible and flexible methods of delivering psychological therapies to veterans. One such alternative is to use remote-access video technology, often referred to as tele-therapy. The aims of the present study were to explore the feasibility of using tele-therapy in this population, whilst also reporting mental health outcomes for those who accessed the intervention. Methods Participants were recruited from a UK veterans mental health charity. The intervention consisted of 12 sessions of cognitive processing therapy delivered via Skype. Participants completed various measures of mental health, including PTSD at three time points: pre-treatment, post-treatment and at three months follow-up. A measure of therapeutic alliance was also completed by participants and the clinician. Results A total of 27 participants engaged in tele-therapy, with a treatment completion rate of 79% and a ‘did not attend’ rate of 12%, which compared well against similar outpatient services. All mental health outcomes showed maintained improvement at three months follow-up, with the highest effect size recorded for PTSD. Therapeutic alliance was also rated highly by both participants and the clinician. Discussion The findings suggest that tele-therapy could provide a viable alternative format for delivering trauma-focused psychological therapies to veterans. Limitations and recommendations for future research are also presented.

Resumen

Digital images are very popularly used for communications over the internet. Embedded information in the digital image has to be securely transmitted without any modification in the image. The biomedical telemedicine gains significant importance in information transmission and with increasing popularity with Tele-ophthalmology, requirement of medical data confidentiality and privacy also increases for data storage and secure transformation. The objective is to analyse the bioimage encryption algorithms which provides security and privacy to the bioimages. In this paper retinal fundus image online available dataset have used. The proposed work is analysed by considering, three performance parameters such as PSNR, MSE and CR. The two different encryption algorithms namely block-based perceptual encryption (BBPE) and advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithm along with arithmetic compression have tested . The proposed work results tested on standard test images and retinal fundus images shows that the BBPE method attains PSNR of 27.58db , MSE of 3.20e+03 and CR of 4.27 for standard test images and 13.35db, 1.4046e+04 and 7.28 respectively for medical HRF images. The BBPE algorithm can be used in tele-ophthalmology and telemedicine applications.

Resumen

Virtual reality systems are being increasingly used for enhancing human perception of complex real-world or synthetic events. Serious applications outside entertainment range from education training to science and engineering. In this paper, we present our research work concerning the use of virtual reality in underwater robot tele-operation and training. We have proposed a novel concept of ROV safety domain to overcome the robot sensor error issue involved in virtual environment based underwater teleoperation approach. The detailed mathematical model of the ROV safety domain and its proof will be presented. In addition, we will examine how ROV safety domain can be used in underwater robot teleoperation, and present the architecture of our prototype virtual tele-operation system. Its current status and evaluation, as well as issues involved in its practical application will also be discussed.

Resumen

This article examines the work of John Cura, a freelance photographer who took over half a million still images of British television programmes between 1947 and 1968. Called Tele-snaps, these photographs constitute an archive of British television from a period where only a limited quantity of programme material survives. Based on papers relating to Cura's work, available in the BBC's Written Archive Centre, the article details the development of Cura's relationship with the BBC as a freelancer, from his speculative attempts at securing clients in the late 1940s to his long-standing contractual work with production offices throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Cura's interactions with the BBC also shed light on the development of British television in the period before 1970. The article documents the changes that took place in the BBC's photographic department in the early 1950s, when photographs for presentational and archival purposes ceased, as well as the concern that the Tele-snaps caused the BBC's legal team by raising questions about television images and copyright. In doing so, the article raises questions about the way that television was valued by those who made it, given that Cura was able to sustain a successful business for twenty years by creating a lasting record of a wide range of television programmes, many of which no longer exist in the BBC's archive.

Resumen

Background and context: Over the next decades, cancer burden is expected to reach 20 million new cases annually in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) by 2025. The rate of incidence of thyroid cancer has increased more than any other cancer worldwide. In the United States has seen >300% increase within the past 30 years and few estimates suggest that thyroid cancer could become the third most common cancer diagnosed in women by 2019. Health care services therefore need to gear up to provide close clinical follow-up care for people both in primary and specialist care. Information and communication technologies may enable more integrated treatment and care pathways across geographical boundaries. Though, hospital-based telemedicine system has been proved to be effective in carrying out continuity of care after primary treatment is over, current usage of social media in such situations are not studied well. The social media–based remote monitoring can be done at leisure, convenient to both patients and treating surgeons and does not require costly hospital infrastructure. Aim: We conducted this study to assess the effect of remote monitoring using tele–follow-up on compliance, satisfaction and economic benefit. Strategy/Tactics: Use of social media tools to empower patients on regular follow-up. Program/Policy process: Remote monitoring using social media. Outcomes: A total of 67 postoperative patients were followed up using social media tools. A total of 248 tele-sessions were held. The average number of tele-consultation per patient was 3.7 (range 2-6). The reasons for tele–follow-up were: confirmation of histology report (n = 62), medication dosage adjustments (n = 58), wound evaluation (n = 42), reporting of S. TSH and S. calcium levels (n = 128) and medical fitness certificate (n = 3). Wound evaluation through tele–follow-up was on par with OPD follow-up as no patient had to report to OPD for wound infection. Satisfaction level was excellent in 55% of patients and very good in 25%. 20% of the patients said that satisfaction level was average. If all of these 67 patients would have come to our OPD follow-up, they would have traveled 830 km per patient on an average, apart from losing work hours. Average cost and work days saving per visit was $78 and 5.4 days respectively. Compliance was good as all patients reported on the date and time of appointment. The technique ensures satisfactory follow-up. What was learned: Low- and middle-income countries need an eHealth revolution using this type of technology to achieve the goal of health for all as availability of health care facilities is a problem in such geographical locations in addition to lack of human resources as compared with patients needing healthcare.

Resumen

SummaryIt is well known that the sense of presence in a tele-robot system for both home-based tele-rehabilitation and rescue operations is enhanced by haptic feedback. Beyond several advantages, in the presence of communication delay haptic feedback can lead to an unstable teleoperation system. During the last decades, several control techniques have been proposed to ensure a good trade-off between transparency and stability in bilateral teleoperation systems under time delays. These proposed control approaches have been extensively tested with teleoperation systems based on identical master and slave robots having few degrees of freedom (DoF). However, a small number of DoFs cannot ensure both an effective restoration of the multi-joint coordination in tele-rehabilitation and an adequate dexterity during manipulation tasks in rescue scenario. Thus, a deep understanding of the applicability of such control techniques on a real bilateral teleoperation setup is needed. In this work, we investigated the behavior of the time-domain passivity approach (TDPA) applied on an asymmetrical teleoperator system composed by a 5-DoFs impedance designed upper-limb exoskeleton and a 4-DoFs admittance designed anthropomorphic robot. The conceived teleoperation architecture is based on a velocity–force (measured) architecture with position drift compensation and has been tested with a representative set of tasks under communication delay (80 ms round-trip). The results have shown that the TDPA is suitable for a multi-DoFs asymmetrical setup composed by two isomorphic haptic interfaces characterized by different mechanical features. The stability of the teleoperator has been proved during several (1) high-force contacts against stiff wall that involve more Cartesian axes simultaneously, (2) continuous contacts with a stiff edge tests, (3) heavy-load handling tests while following a predefined path and (4) high-force contacts against stiff wall while handling a load. The found results demonstrated that the TDPA could be used in several teleoperation scenarios like home-based tele-rehabilitation and rescue operations.

Resumen

In nuclear power plants (NPP), dismantling is the most technically involved process during their life time. During the dismantling process, public safety must be ensured. In crisis situations, a remotely controlled robot system is needed for the dismantling of NPP. Therefore, in this research, a bilateral tele-operation system is proposed to tackle these emergency conditions. Transparency can be improved by using force and position signal in the control strategy. In some applications, force cannot be determine directly using physical sensors. In this work, a novel tele-operated bilateral control strategy is proposed to estimate the reaction force of 3-degree-of-freedom (DOF) master and hydraulic slave manipulators without the use of a sensor. The control strategy is developed by using sliding mode control with sliding perturbation observer (SMCSPO). The sliding perturbation observer (SPO) estimates the reaction force at the end effector and second link without using sensors. The sliding mode control (SMC) is used as a tele-operated bilateral controller for the robust position tracking and control of the slave device. The impedance model is used to differentiate between the applied force (force exerted by operator) and the reaction force due to the remote environment. Different experiments were performed to verify the proposed strategy. The results indicate that the slave manipulator exactly follows the trajectory of the master device. A camera is used to take visual feedback of the workspace for safety purpose. This technique can also be applied for higher-order DOF manipulators in NPP.

Resumen

Today, satellite communication networks are being integrated into the infrastructure of modern Terrestrial communication networks and becoming popular for the delivery of educational content and data, as well as education-centric services, including information, tele-conferencing, entertainment, or ‘edutainment’ services. With fresh demand for new services and applications, it is becoming essential that wireless network architecture seamlessly interoperate with new and existing technologies, protocols and standards. This paper presents recent work on the use of hybrid wireless network infrastructures for delivering tele-education and e-learning applications to remote communities by combining a variety of satellite, terrestrial and wireless technologies, and provides the results from live scenarios carried out employing various methods of interoperability testing. The analysis of the results examines a number of different issues such as delay, jitter, packet loss, latency, throughput measurement, and bandwidth. By combining satellite and terrestrial (wireless) technologies, full coverage and high capacity can be achieved for true broadband services for delivering educational content. The interoperability among such diverse networks imposes a number of challenges regarding service provision and management.

Resumen

BT is a leading international supplier of telepresence in the form of telephony. Tele-presence enables “people as content”, and there are rapidly developing and wide-ranging opportunities for broadband, mobile, multimedia telepresence services. This paper outlines work in progress at BT Adastral Park, including projects on large-scale inhabited applications, networked immersion or “through-the-screen” conferencing, and wearable computing for ubiquitous telepresence. We conclude that research into future services requires a reappraisal of traditional methods, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary collaboration.

Resumen

This essay outlines the historiographic implications of the strange convergence between Berlin Dadaist Raoul Hausmann's Optophon (1920–1936)—a “synaesthetic” instrument designed to transform sound signals into light signals and vice versa—and Nam June Paik's pioneering 1960s television work. Hausmann articulated a new, “televisual” form of presence, which also implied a new form of tele-tactility. As his notion of tactility returns in Paik's work, the Optophon might be construed as the historical origin of the genre called “video art.” Yet, it could be argued that Hausmann's technological reasoning produced an interruption at the very site where such art-historical legacies are constituted.

Resumen

The focus of this article is perception affects and enhancement during ground robotic tele-operation. Three independent factors were studied, namely scale perception, distance perception, and orientation awareness. Enhancements for each factor was proposed, implemented, and evaluated. The results show that under remote perception conditions, where the operator was separated from the environment where the navigation took place, both distance perception and scale perception were significantly impaired as compared with that obtained under direct perception conditions. In addition, for each of the proposed enhancements designed for each critical factor, the corresponding factor was significantly improved. The broader impacts of this work can be applied to various human-robot collaborated applications, such as urban search and rescue. Applying the proposed enhancements will allow the operators to have fewer failures through hallways, doorways, or maneuvering around obstacles, as well as allowing a more accurate understanding of the area's layout when a map is not available.

Resumen

The link between academia, government, and business to improve the development and appropriation of knowledge in certain topics, such as logistics, is being promoted in Colombia. One of the key issues of teaching logistics is try to bring to actual work contexts, problems that can be handled by people who do not have experience. The incorporation of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) in academic environments supports the training of professionals in different fields. The tele-operated laboratory for logistics operations called Internet2 way [TELEOPLOGIS] is a project focused on the development and implementation of a remote laboratory where an integrated and didactic manufacturing cell, some robot manipulators, and specific pieces of software are used for the teaching of logistics operations. This laboratory includes the development of guidelines and academic workshops with two approaches: teleoperation systems for discrete events, and manufacturing cells that transform the cell nodes into elements of logistics operations. We achieved acceptable results in both remote operations and in practices that currently are in progress.

Resumen

Abstract Physical exercise training and medication compliance are primary components of cardiac rehabilitation. When rehabilitating independently at home, patients often fail to comply with their prescribed medication and find it challenging to interpret exercise targets or be aware of the expected efforts. Our work aims to assist cardiac patients in understanding their condition better, promoting medication adherence and motivating them to achieve their exercise targets in a tele-rehabilitation setting. We introduce a patient-centric intelligible visualization approach to present prescribed medication and exercise targets to patients. We assessed efficacy of intelligible visualizations on patients’ comprehension in two lab studies. We evaluated the impact on patient motivation and health outcomes in field studies. Patients were able to adhere to medication prescriptions, manage their physical exercises, monitor their progress and gained better self-awareness on how they achieved their rehabilitation targets. Patients confirmed that the intelligible visualizations motivated them to achieve their targets better. We observed an improvement in overall physical activity levels and health outcomes of patients. Research Highlights Presents challenges currently faced in cardiac tele-rehabilitation. Demonstrates how intelligibility was applied to two core aspects of cardiac rehabilitation- promoting medication adherence and physical exercise training. Lab., field and clinical studies to demonstrate efficacy of intelligible visualization, impact on patient motivation and resultant health outcomes. Reflection on how similar HCI approaches could be leveraged for technology-supported management of critical health conditions such as cardiac diseases.

Resumen

The purpose of this paper is to analyse some recent developments in tele working, considered as flexible work forms linked to the widespread use of information and communication technology (ICT). First of all we draw an overview of emerging and declining forms of telework, referring to recent results of an international survey carried out for the European Commission. This overview highlights that the various teleworking practices can no longer be analysed from the single point of view of ‘working at a distance'. The second section analyses them in a more general framework: the expansion of flexible work organisation and ‘atypical’ work forms, which characterise employment in the information society. These aspects will be commented on in the light of some results of a European socio-economic research project (FLEXCOT), allowing us to pinpoint the role of ICT in these trends. In conclusion, the paper addresses some challenges for industrial relations and collective bargaining.

Resumen

Tele-oncology research has been primarily feasibility-focused. Treatment-based telegenetic counseling, remote therapy delivery, and palliative care are the major applications of available technology, keeping patients out of the clinic and bringing the interventions home. The efficacy of these technologies will entirely determine patient outcomes and the overall patient work system. The purpose of this study was to report on current tele-oncological outcome studies, evaluation of their outcomes, and implications for future research. We used PubMed, IEEE Xplore, and Web of Science to identify eligible papers that met the defined inclusion criteria ( n=36). The final selected papers included telegenetic counseling (n=4), remote chemotherapy delivery (n=2), and palliative care (n=30). Results showed positive changes in the outcome measures such clinical outcomes for treatment, information exchanges, and therapeutic regimens. There is an evident lack of outcomes research conducted for remote chemotherapy delivery and telegenetic counseling. Future research should stray from feasibility studies and focus more heavily on outcomes, especially for the relatively unexplored fields of remote chemotherapy delivery and telegenetic counseling. Research should also aim to be more quantifiable and explore additional outcomes aside from the general “quality of life", such as adverse events reduction and fatigue severity.

Resumen

We studied whether preventive home monitoring of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) could reduce the frequency of hospital admissions and lower the cost of hospitalization. Patients were recruited from a health centre, general practitioner (GP) or the pulmonary hospital ward. They were randomized to usual care or tele-rehabilitation with a telehealth monitoring device installed in their home for four months. A total of 111 patients were suitable for inclusion and consented to be randomized: 60 patients were allocated to intervention and three were lost to follow-up. In the control group 51 patients were allocated to usual care and three patients were lost to follow-up. In the tele-rehabilitation group, the mean hospital admission rate was 0.49 per patient per 10 months compared to the control group rate of 1.17; this difference was significant ( P = 0.041). The mean cost of admissions was €3461 per patient in the intervention group and €4576 in the control group; this difference was not significant. The Kaplan-Meier estimates for time to hospital admission were longer for the intervention group than the controls, but the difference was not significant. Future work requires large-scale studies of prolonged home monitoring with more extended follow-up.

Resumen

Tele-education went from being an option to becoming a necessity given the current public health problems. Due to this, the educational sector has included blended courses as part of its training offer. Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) will therefore, become an important resource to work, under this class format, with students outside the classroom, in accordance with the standards recommended inside a university campus. MANETs require certain parameters that ensure the quality of communications and identify the factors that influence Quality of Service (QoS). The purpose of this study is to determine the factors that affect the quality of communications in a tele-education environment. For this purpose, the QoS of a MANET supporting a real-time video streaming is evaluated based on throughput. As a result, the main factors that directly or indirectly affect the operation of the network could be identified, which may help in making decisions regarding aspects such as the number of nodes and the node mobility speed. Moreover, the versatility and scalability of the MANET was proven, as when the number of nodes went from 5 to 10, throughput increased by 14 %. This also occurred with the transmission rate factor when the video was streamed in a channel with a variable bitrate (64–4096 kbps).

Resumen

Underwater identification and grasping of objects is a major challenge faced by the marine engineers even today. Nowadays, almost all underwater operations are either autonomous or tele-operated. In fact remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) are used to deal with inspection tasks and industrial maintenance whenever there is need for intervention. However, the field of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is a blooming filed with research involving proper moving base control and forces interacting which leads to complicated configuration. Hence the presented work is focused implementation of end-effector with appropriate control and signal processing resulting in autonomous manipulation of movement under water.

Resumen

In certain cases, and under certain conditions, extremely useful analytic work can be done on the phone or through videoconferencing. Contrary to what some critics of teleanalysis maintain, with patients who are motivated and can make use of analysis, physical distance between analyst and patient and/or occasional technological difficulties do not limit or preclude successful analysis. Clinical material from three teleanalyses demonstrates various conditions that help make teleanalysis useful. Instead of being a disadvantage, the juxtaposition of the experience of the “tele” and the in-person settings (in occasional in-person sessions) provides increased and unique opportunities for analysis.

Resumen

The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged rehabilitation professionals to provide therapy through telepractice. The aims of this study were to investigate and compare the uptake of tele-rehabilitation (TR) in Finland amongst different rehabilitation professions during the COVID-19 pandemic as well as potential differences between professions in carrying out TR. In addition, the goal was to explore in more depth therapists’ views about the features that work and challenges of TR. A total of 850 therapists in the physio-, occupational-, speech and language-, and psychotherapy professions participated in the survey that included both quantitative and open-ended questions. The results show that 52% of all the therapists who participated in this study did take up TR with all or most of their clients during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Of all professionals who have carried out tele-rehabilitation during the pandemic, 46% planned to use TR regularly or probably also after the pandemic. There were also clear differences between the professions. Psychotherapists carried out TR during the pandemic and planned to use it also after the pandemic more often than the other professional groups. The qualitative analysis revealed that therapists identified several beneficial but also multiple challenging features of TR. Psychotherapists reported less challenges than other professions. The pandemic has clearly sped up the use of TR in rehabilitation.
