New Sensor-Based Care Approach for Personalized Dementia Therapy

Dementia is an age-related illness that is turning out to be more widespread as demographics change. It affects mainly people over the age of 80, with this group accounting for more than 70% of all dementia sufferers. Patient care is a huge challenge for families and caregivers, particularly since, in a majority of cases, important health data lacks any beneficial structure and is not available when it is necessary.
