Abstract:
Sensors, combined with intelligent systems, can enhance the quality of the Telecare services deployed at home, improving the capability for detection of risk situations and the users care. However, there are no specific studies that evaluate this kind of Telecare systems by professionals that work in a Telecare center. This paper shows the results of an assessment of the current satisfaction and future expectations of the Telecare professionals when using advanced Telecare solutions deployed at home. The study has been conducted through structured interviews with 24 Telecare experts working in the Telecare center of the Spanish Red Cross for attending alarm calls for elderly people. The interviews had the support of the TALISMAN Telecare system that is a next-generation Telecare service deployed in the accessible digital home of Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. All participants showed overall satisfaction with TALISMAN and their intention to use it. Results showed that perceived usefulness is an important influencing factor to the intention to use it and the Quality of the Information is a key factor in the perceived usefulness. TALISMAN, as an example of a next-generation Telecare system, is seen as a tool with high potential for improving the care of elderly people at home.

Abstract:
We investigated the perceptions of people about the safety, security and privacy of a telecare monitoring system for adults with developmental disabilities living in residential settings. The telecare system was used by remote caregivers overnight, when staff were not present in the homes. We surveyed 127 people from different stakeholder groups in the state of Indiana. The people surveyed included those with knowledge or experience of telecare, and those without. The stakeholders were clients, their advocates, service provider administrators and independent case coordinators. The responses in each category for every group were positive except one: only 4 of the 11 telecare case coordinators agreed that the telecare system provided a secure environment. Overall, the telecare system was perceived to be as safe, secure and private as the conventional alternative of having staff in the home.

Abstract:
There are many home telecare technologies which have been developed specifically for chronic diseases and there are some more generic technologies that could be used as well. For home telecare, the equipment must be certified, the operational routines must be reformed, the infrastructure must be in place, the market must be prepared, the health authorities must be convinced that the system will work and the cost-effectiveness must be evaluated. Organizational and societal changes, such as cost reduction policies and an aging population, are the main driving forces for the development of home telecare, especially for elderly patients. At the moment there is no holistic model for scientific evaluation from different perspectives (e.g. clinical, legal, technical). We suggest that more research on home telecare and its effects needs to be conducted, in order to provide evidence for optimizing the use of this promising technique.

Abstract:
Telecare services and 'smart' homes share a common technological base in information technology and telecommunications. There is growing interest in both telecare services and smart homes, although they have been studied in isolation. Telecare has been driven largely by perceived cost savings and improved service delivery to the home, leading to improved quality of life and independent living. Smart homes are also expected to provide better and safer living conditions. The integration of the two should produce more secure and autonomous living. There are different forms of telecare services, as there are different types of smart homes, each ranging from basic systems involving the use of alarms and the ordinary telephone to intelligent monitoring with sensors and interactive communication. The introduction of these systems has policy implications, such as the need for coordination between health, social services and housing policy makers, which will reduce duplication and inefficient allocation of resources. Successful delivery of telecare to the home is as much dependent on the construction and condition of the housing stock as it is on the ability of the care provider to meet users' needs. If the UK National Health Service (NHS) could replace a significant proportion of domiciliary nursing visits by telephone calls, then savings of up to 200 million per annum would be possible.

Abstract:
The increasing tendency to discharge chronic patients from hospital, as well as the growing expectation of improved quality of life for elderly and disabled people at home, was the original motivation for the development of a home telecare management system. The system allows a service centre to perform remote monitoring of biological signals and other data via the public telephone network, as well as to manage different emergency situations arising at home. The system is part of the EU-funded EPIC project (European Prototype for Integrated Care). It was tested in Belfast (Northern Ireland) and is currently being installed in Torre del Mar (Spain). This paper describes the system design and preliminary evaluation. The results indicate that the system operators find it highly acceptable in terms of efficiency, effectiveness, helpfulness, control and learnability. Integration of home telecare data with community-care information systems is essential if data captured at home are to be incorporated into the care process effectively.

Abstract:

Critical networks e.g. telecare services, telemonitoring, are implemented to provide the information security and reliability that the end user desires, especially during an emergency. Unlike business carrier systems that are planned for the general public’s use, critical communication systems are designed particularly for public protection and other serious communication situations. Availability and reliability of such networks is highly desirable. The following thesis works to compare and analyze a variety of communication access technologies to find out the best primary means of data transportation for health critical services and model reliable communication link by using redundancy. This study also provides an efficient failover mechanism to implement redundant links. This strategy is intended to provide the reliable communication and to protect the established communication link.

Abstract:
Successful implementation of any technology requires acceptance by the users. Numerous studies in the area of information technology acceptance, based on wellknown theories have been conducted to examine technology acceptance models and predict user adoption/acceptance behaviour. There are several studies dealing with patients??? acceptance of different telemedicine applications, but few about the patients??? acceptance of home telecare. Most existing studies are not based on a strong theoretical framework. In this study, based on an extensive literature review and preliminary qualitative data, a theoretical model of the effect of Home Telecare Management System (HTMS) characteristics and psychological variables associated with technophobia on patients??? acceptance of HTMS is proposed. The proposed model is an augmented Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) of Davis (1986), which is called Home Telecare Management System acceptance model (HTMS-AM), in which TAM has been augmented by two constructs: HTMS anxiety and HTMS self-efficacy. The model is proposed to improve our understanding regarding patients??? acceptance of HTMS, which may lead to successful design and implementation of home telecare systems. In addition, it can be used as a theoretical basis to evaluate new generations of HTMS in terms of users acceptance in the early stage of their design and development even prior to implementation. In order to test the reliability and validity of the measures, video demonstrations of a home telecare system and demonstration of a system prototype to potential users was employed. To propose the HTMS-AM the following five stages were taken: 1. General well-known theoretical models of human behaviour from psychology and technology acceptance models from information technology were reviewed to create a basic template for the proposed model. 2. A preliminary study (focus group interviews, Chapter 5) was conducted to assess patients??? perceptions of HTMS. 3. Based on an extensive literature review and findings from preliminary qualitative studies, HTMS acceptance model was proposed, to improve our understanding about factors, which may affect patients??? intention to use HTMS. Several adaptations were applied in the model to be applicable in the HTMS context, such as augmenting the model with HTMS self-efficacy and HTMS anxiety constructs. 4. To measure the different psychological variables in the proposed model, valid and reliable measures from previous studies were used. However the preliminary study was used to develop measures, which did not exist in the literature. 5. These measures were tested in the final study. The subjects were patients who had been affected with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and/or Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD). Given the chronic nature of these diseases, the necessity for extended monitoring and management and frequent admission to hospitals due to worsening health status, these patients were deemed the most appropriate candidates for the HTMS. Further studies with more cases need to be conducted to test the actual model in which the impact of HTMS characteristics, psychological and demographic factors associated with technophobia upon intention to use the HTMS and the correlation of these factors with each other in appropriate healthcare settings.

Abstract:
The present health, care and support mechanisms are unable to truly meet the demands made upon it. Between 1992 and 1996 the total number of home care hours increased by 50% while the number of households receiving the service declined by around 7%. A more intensive service is being delivered to a minority of people yet at the same time the number of people who may need support is increasing. Health spending on people aged 75 and over is 6 times that of the average for the rest of the population but between 1995 and 2025 the UK will see a 43.6% increase in the 60 and over age range. A similar trend is apparent across much of the developed world. In order to meet this new demand the use of technology has been suggested, yet a review of the literature indicates that little evidence exists to indicate if users would welcome technology and whether it would be effective. This research therefore seeks to answer the question ‘Are assistive technologies an enhancement to the present health, care and support mechanisms?’ The NHS and Community Care Act 1990 suggests that resources should move from hospitals and institutions to the community and therefore since 80% of older people want to stay in their own homes it would seem appropriate that assistance is provided to people in these locations. The literature review has also highlighted 4 key areas, which are addressed in this thesis, namely: user requirements, system modelling, cost analysis and service delivery. Currently relatively simple technology, refereed to as the community alarm system is used to assist, predominately older people, in the community. Using these people and the technology as a base level this research indicates that such users would welcome more advanced technology. Indeed, in a survey of 176 users, 77% welcomed automatic fall detection, 68% welcomed lifestyle monitoring where changes in the pattern of behaviour generates an automatic alarm, 57% welcomed telemedicine where medical parameters are measured in the users home and the doctor is contacted if necessary, and 46% welcomed videoconferencing. To assist people in their own homes telecare has been defined as an appropriate model with the community alarm system being defined as the 1st generation system. Several authors have attempted to define subsequent generations of telecare in generalities with no one defining the actual system and data flows. To address this insufficiency, and provide a structure to developments, based on the availability of technology and the views of users, a target system has been defined which could be available within 15 years. In order to move from the present 1st generation system to this 4th generation, 2 stepping stone systems have been defined and it is hoped that subsequent work will use these system definitions and create and trial the technology and systems suggested. Telecare is an emerging area of research and therefore little attention has been given to costeffectiveness, in order to address this area a financial model has been created using Excel worksheets. The results indicate that, in comparison to the present system a 2nd generation telecare system could potentially save £8.3m over the 10-year system life cycle. Various sensitivity analyses are performed and in each and every constraint the 2nd generation telecare system is more profitable than the present community alarm system. Extrapolating the results to represent the whole of the UK indicates that there is the potential to save £832m over the 10-year system life cycle. As with any system the introduction of a 2nd generation telecare system will inevitably change the way people work. In order to discover the impact that the introduction of such a system may have a model has been created to estimate the impact at the community alarm control centre, currently the centre of activity in the present system. The net result is that the number of calls increases by 321%, however many of these calls regard data that do not require human attention. When analysing the impact on service delivery the actual amount of time required speaking to people in need of assistance reduce by 55%. This is predominantly achieved by reducing the number of calls activated by mistake through the greater use of effective technology. Overall it could be argued that this research has added considerably to the knowledge base and the results indicate that telecare has tremendous potential to address the ageing population difficulties that the UK and other developed countries face.

Abstract:
Ageing in Place and Telecare solutions are being proposed by policymakers as solutions to the ageing population and the increased demands for care as people live longer, often with chronic health conditions. Research and policy tend to draw attention to the economic benefits of Telecare for older people and society in general, with a much smaller, but significant, body of qualitative research now addressing the more experiential aspects of Telecare. This quasi-ethnographic study involved undertaking semi-structured interviews, opportunistic conversations and observations of sixteen older Telecare users over a period of six months and has sought to understand the process by which older people came to acquire and use Telecare and how their experiences of using Telecare has changed the experience of, and meanings associated with, ‘home’ and ‘care’, in particular. The study is situated at the intersection of studies of care (particularly relational approaches) and studies of the relationship between technology and users, specifically, domestication theory. My research questions were: 1) How do older people come to adopt Telecare in their homes? 2) How does Telecare change the meanings and experiences of home for older people? and 3) How does Telecare change the meanings and experiences of care for older people? Drawing on domestication theory, I analysed how Telecare was appropriated, objectified, incorporated and converted by older people in their own homes. My findings suggested an incomplete ‘domestication’ of Telecare, linked both to feelings of ambivalence towards this form of care which, despite its stated purpose as a tool to support independence, can still come to be associated with frailty and vulnerability amongst older people and the quest for independence embedded in Telecare. The research shows that older people’s homes were modified, although not significantly disrupted, by the introduction of Telecare. This is because their homes were already a site of care, populated by formal and informal carers and by a plethora of assistive devices. Telecare seemed to coexist, without particular tension, with previous forms of care. The study showed that the extent to which, and the ways in which, the dichotomization between care ‘in person’ and care ‘at a distance’ fails to capture older people’s experiences of Telecare, the latter of which was experienced as part of a wider care network of established and new formal and informal carers and technological devices. When it worked well, despite some ambivalence that seems to reflect concerns about growing frailty and dependence, Telecare gave older people a sense of security and safety at home, as well as new opportunities for face-to-face care with Telecare workers.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the hypothesis that a single, waist-mounted triaxial accelerometer (TA) can be used to monitor human movement patterns in unsupervised, freeliving subjects over extended periods, and that it can be used to quantitatively measure parameters that can provide clinical insight into the health status of the subject. A rigorous theoretical and experimental understanding of the signals obtained from a TA is developed. The effect of the placement of the TA device on the waist is explored and a model relating device position to TA signal is developed for a range of postures and activities. A classification framework for movement identification using the signals from a waist-mounted TA is presented. This framework is based on a hierarchical binary processing tree and is designed for real time use. An implementation of this framework for monitoring housebound patients is presented. Algorithms for detecting falls, distinguishing between activity and rest, classifiying transitions between different postural orientations, and for identifying periods of standing, sitting, lying and walking are developed. In evaluation studies performed in controlled laboratory conditions, every algorithm performed with better than 90% accuracy. Once movements are identified, movement-specific parameters sensitive to changes in functional status are extracted from the signal. A two stage methodology for employing the accelerometry system in monitoring free-living subjects is introduced. The first stage involved monitoring specific movements through a directed routine. The second stage involved monitoring of free movement. Signals obtained from the directed routine are used to extract clinically relevant, movement-specific parameters. Signals obtained from the period of free movement are monitored for falls and other abnormal events. General parameters of movement, including energy expenditure, are also measured. The system was evaluated in a series of field studies in laboratory and home environments, in supervised and unsupervised settings, using cohorts of healthy subjects. A pilot trial was conducted in which six healthy elderly subjects wore the TA device for a period of up to three months. The technical performance and useability of the system were evaluated. Clinically significant parameters were measured and the effects of age and health status on the measured parameters were evaluated.

Abstract:
There are currently 820,000 people in the United Kingdom living with dementia and around 670,000 partners, family members, and friends providing them with support. The behavioural disturbances and memory loss that typify dementia can make the role of caregiver extremely challenging. The consequent burden that many carers experience is closely associated with the care receiver’s admission into institutional care. Due to the UK’s ageing population, the number of people with dementia is set to rise to over one million by 2021. Consequently, the UK government is keen to explore different options to support carers, and to meet the increasing demand on care services. One such option is telecare, which uses information and communication technology to help manage the risks of community living for people with dementia, and to support care delivery. This thesis presents a hybrid simulation model, TeleDem, which explores the influence of telecare on the number of people with dementia able to remain living in their own homes. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a widely used Operational Research (OR) tool for modelling complex stochastic systems, and its successful use in healthcare applications and care pathways has been well documented. The hybrid approach used in this thesis enhances the capability of DES by combining it with elements of Agent Based Simulation (ABS) in order to capture the complexity of this human centric system. Statecharts, a key component of ABS, are used to convert the passive entities associated with traditional DES into autonomous beings (or agents) whose behaviour is determined by their environment and their interactions with other elements of the system. In the TeleDem model these transformed entities are better equipped to reflect the human beings they represent; capturing each person’s disease progression, level of dependency, and their informal carer’s level of carer burden. These factors then govern the person’s movement through the social care system. The TeleDem Simulation models the potential experiences of thousands of hypothetical telecare service users. This enables the exploration of a range of scenarios to inform planning decisions for the provision of telecare services for people with dementia.

The age of people in Taiwan becomes older. The birth rate decreases in recent decades. These two major trends have changed the people structure in the country. Although the national health insurance satisfies most of the people, the financial crisis is now the major threat to the country. Moreover, the introduction of modern medical technologies and the increasing demands for medical services nowadays have made the financial crisis worsen in the country. The information communication industry develops prosperously in Taiwan. The infrastructure of information communication has been well constructed. It is well prepared for developing telemedical care system in Taiwan. The blue ocean of medical service is to create the most treatment value for patients. This value is to get the best health outcomes per dollar spent, as Porter’s speech for the 20th Anniversary of TSMC in Taiwan. Home telecare is a new model of medical care combining of technology, communication and medical techniques. Using the telemonitoring technology, the aged can enjoy a more convenient, comfortable and safe medical service at home or in community environment. Since home telecare has been applied worldwide, the government of this country should focus more attention on such a sociomedical issue. All the current literatures from the national and international resources have been reviewed. The current projects of telecare supported by government have been studied. The purpose of this study is to investigate the first home telecare case supported by a private entrepreneur, analyze its innovative business model and discuss its future vision. Telemedical service has been applied to many medical fields, as in chronic disease care, basic cares for general medicine and surgery, pediatric care, cardiovascular care, psychiatry care, obstetric care, orthopedical care, neurological care, neonatal care, and rehabilitation, etc. The current status of telecare models is discussed in the following: 1. the international modes, 2. the national models and 3. the Wan-Fan Hospital mode. The most major project supported by the government in home telecare is currently conducted by Wan-Fan Hospital. The proposal contains home telecare model, community telecare model, institution telecare model and the future integrated model. This study is conducted by case study. To correspond to the motivation and purpose of the study, literatures have been thoroughly reviewed. The business model of the case have been verified by the financial, strategic, and competitive analysis. The core competence and key success factors, SWOT analysis, Porter’s five forces and value net analysis have been applied consecutively also. The possible difficulties for operation and the future vision are discussed finally. The difficulties in operation are: 1.The sale rate of the house, 2. The investor who not resides will reduce the case number. 3. The dense medical net of the country decreases the telecare will. 4.The medical regulation prohibits treating a patient without face to face examination. 5. Medical devices, hospital and service quality are still not be certified. 6. The national health insurance payment will promote the distribution of telecare. The future model of the case comprises the following features: 1.To revise the medical regulations will expand the scopes of telecare. 2. The medical monitoring section will replace the information communication section. 3. The fee section will be paid by the national health insurance, private insurance, company, or by the patients. The conclusions of this study are: 1. There is financial flexibility and less operational risk for such an entrepreneur-invested business model (construction company, technology institute and medical center). 2. There is a beneficial mutuality among these three allied corporates. 3. To create a valuable brand name, to set an imitation barrier, and to create an innovative business model are essential for the perpetual operation of this case. 4. These three allied corporates own core competence and brand value, are leaders in their fields. 5. The potential market demands, first mover advantage, and innovative creativity are the key success factors of the studied case. 6. The competition advantage and engorging market are the strength and opportunity of the case. 7. The competitive advantage in the five forces analysis are brand name, first mover, and better bargain ability. 8. The three allied corporates are in fact the mutual complements in the value net.

As the elderly population increased in the 21 century, chronic diseases and home health care have become the focus of medical care. With the rapid advancement in information technologies (IT) in Taiwan, home telecare provides a new service and business model for the care of patients at home. The purpose of this study was to analyze the developmental trends of home telecare industry and its competitive strategies. The structure of the industry, industry environment, and competitive strategies were analyzed. The home telecare project and business model of the industry was also compared. Data collected from literature including journal, theses, books and internet were used for secondary data analysis. Michael Porter’s conceptual model was used as a framework to analyze the home telecare industry. The analysis showed that there were high bargaining power of buyers and suppliers, moderately high threat of new entrants and substitute products or services, and low rivalry among existing firms. Characteristics of the emerging home telecare industry included high uncertainty of the technology, strategy and policy, financial difficulties in cost and funding support, limitation and risk in early development stage, non-standardized products and technique, etc. There were high needs, industry scale, and space of growth in the industry, as well as good advantages and opportunities for the development of the home telecare industry in Taiwan. Difficulties encountered included delayed development of the industry in Taiwan, inadequate attraction of product and technique etc. Competitive strategies involved decreasing bargaining power in clients and suppliers, lowering cost strategies, differentiation in product and service content to increase competitive advantage. Government should actively involved in the development of home telecare industry and set up legal regulations to insure service quality. The findings of this study can be used as a reference for the competitive strategy and development of home telecare industry.

Medical informatics has been the most promising topic in both medical and computer field for years. Recently, many studies are engaged in the research of Web-based telemedicine system. Some new ideas are proposed, such as network clinic. These systems, however, are not of practical use because the database connection schema under WWW now is not stable and efficient enough to provide a large number of accesses at the same time. Also, a new technology is required to integrate various data formats into one database system. Home telemedicine is a means of providing care, monitoring and providing education to a patient in their home by using telecommunications technologies. In this thesis we propose a Web-based home telecare system, based on the rapid development of broadband and internet networks, to integrate some characteristics of health care and to provide remote home care services for general, chronic ill patients. The system uses live audio and video along with medical peripherals, such as a telephonic stethoscope, vital sign equipment and glucose meters to facilitate the home telemedicine encounter. In addition to this video-conferencing, internet access and physiological home monitoring provides virtual visits between homebound patients and home health care providers. These visits can effectively improve home care, reduce cost, increase access, and improve patient satisfaction. In this research, we adopt ASP database structure and use ADO object to share the connection of database system and improve the data access performance. According to our experiments, we have the conclusion that our system using ASP database structure have better performance when serving a large number of database request. We can get browsing record correctly. Furthermore, SSL is applied to ensure patient’s data to be transferred safely. Right now, we are constructing the Second Generation Medical Network System of our country, adopting CATV technology and the system to provide home telecare service in Taiwan area.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how television became an important medium of communication for gospel music in Chicago. Mahalia Jackson was the first gospel artist to attract significant attention from television studios. As early as 1951, she appeared on Studs Terkel's Studs' Place telecast. In 1958, she was a guest on an episode of NBC's The Dinah Shore Show. She also had her own television program, called Mahalia Jackson Sings. This chapter discusses some television programs dedicated to gospel music, beginning with TV Gospel Time, produced by Howard Schwartz's Allied Productions, followed by Jubilee Showcase on Chicago's WBKB and Isabel Joseph Johnson's Rock of Ages. It also looks at the Barrett Sisters, dubbed “The Sweet Sisters of Zion,” and gospel extravaganzas such as the All-American Gospel Spectacular of 1964 at the Regal Theater and the Defender's gospel festival at the Trianon Ballroom as part of its annual Home Service Show.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the Congressional hearings of 1989 that addressed the issue of cable television's sports telecasts. For many years, Congress aided and abetted over-the-air television's dominance via antisiphoning regulations that restricted cable and pay-television access to many sporting events that were being telecast over-the-air for free. The intent of the regulations was to prevent programs from switching from free over-the-air to pay-television delivery. Home Box Office (HBO) filed suit over the antisiphoning rules and eventually won in court, thereby ending the antisiphoning regulation. The courts found that there was no evidence to suggest that cable television companies were going to usurp free television. With these developments, cable television was ready to compete with the networks and independent television stations. This chapter examines the 1989 hearings that revolved primarily around the New York Yankees' deal with the Madison Square Garden Network to show all the team's games on the cable channel. It also discusses the legal and economic aspects of whether cable telecasts of sporting events violated antitrust law.
