With the support of the Chinese government, nursing homes have increasingly adopted Internet and intelligent information technology to provide daily healthcare services to residents. However, no research has reported the status of intelligent healthcare in nursing homes. From September 2017 to May 2018, we conducted a survey of 197 nursing homes and collected information on their general characteristics, the intelligent healthcare services provided, the effectiveness of the application products used, and the attitudes of the staff and residents toward intelligent healthcare. Overall, 79.69% of the surveyed nursing homes have provided intelligent healthcare services, including medical care services (eg, chronic disease management and intelligent nursing) and daily life services (eg, fall monitoring and wireless positioning). Portable health monitoring devices and data management and service platforms are the most used healthcare products. The attitudes of staff probably affected the development of intelligent healthcare. Financial investment and the attitudes of staff and residents are factors that influence the effectiveness of the application of intelligent healthcare products in nursing homes. With the support of national policies, nursing homes have implemented primary intelligent healthcare. Stakeholders play pivotal roles in the provision of intelligent healthcare services.
在中国政府的支持下,养老院越来越多地采用互联网和智能信息技术为居民提供日常医疗保健服务。然而,目前尚无研究报告养老院的智能医疗保健现状。2017 年 9 月至 2018 年 5 月,我们对 197 家养老院进行了调查,收集了养老院的一般特征、提供的智能医疗保健服务、应用产品的使用效果以及员工和居民对智能医疗保健的态度等信息。总体而言,79.69%的被调查养老院提供了智能医疗保健服务,包括医疗服务(如慢性病管理和智能护理)和日常生活服务(如跌倒监测和无线定位)。便携式健康监测设备和数据管理及服务平台是使用最多的医疗保健产品。员工的态度可能会影响智能医疗保健的发展。财务投资以及员工和居民的态度是影响智能医疗保健产品在养老院应用效果的因素。在国家政策的支持下,养老院已经实施了初步的智能医疗保健。利益相关者在提供智能医疗保健服务方面发挥着关键作用。
