The rise of COVID and the underlying desire to secure protections for healthcare workers created a higher demand for technology and online workspaces where clinicians can provide sustainable care for patients while also reinforcing the need for staff safety. To streamline the patient discharge process, increase patient safety, comprehension, and satisfaction, while simultaneously preventing undesirable readmission rates, a Virtual Nurse application, via remote monitoring and video capabilities, is expected to take over indirect patient tasks such as patient education, discharge instructions, pain monitoring, telemonitoring, communication with the primary nurse and others. By automation, the Virtual Nurse will alleviate repetitive and time-consuming tasks, thus, freeing up nurses to focus on direct patient care tasks and human-to-human quality interaction. This study strives to investigate the feasibility of the implementation of a Virtual Nurse role in the patient discharge process performed at a large healthcare system. This study will start by presenting a brief literature review focused on the technologies currently being employed in healthcare settings around the U.S. Our study aims to present the methodologies utilized in data acquisition and analysis, as well as population sample characteristics.","PeriodicalId":120923,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126505804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different types of social media consumption affect the level of self-esteem and there is an indirect relationship between smartphone overuse and self-esteem among teenagers. Excessive screen time is also associated with online harassment, sleep deprivation, and poor body mass index status in teenagers. Objective: This study aimed to understand the relationship between smartphone addiction and self-esteem among teenage students aged 12–15 years in Jakarta Province, Indonesia. Methods: We used a cross-sectional design and included teenagers aged 12–15 years from four junior high schools in the East area of Jakarta Province. Study variables included age, gender, parental characteristics, smartphone addiction, and teenagers' self-esteem. Participants completed the Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale and the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale. Results: In total, 315 students participated (52.7% girls). We found that 284 (90.2%) students were in the low self-esteem category, 27 (8.6%) were in the normal self-esteem category, and four (1.3%) were in the high self-esteem category. Most students experienced low smartphone addiction and had low self-esteem; however, those that had high smartphone addiction also had high self-esteem. Although unidirectional and weak, this relationship was statistically significant. Conclusion: Given the relationship between smartphone addiction and self-esteem, we recommend that educators and teachers explore various school-based activities that increase students' self-esteem and social interaction. This may also help reduce the time available for using smartphones. Educators could also vary teaching patterns to keep students engaged in the learning process. Further longitudinal and case-control studies are needed to clarify the causes and effects of the association between smartphones and self-esteem among teenagers.","PeriodicalId":120923,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125489564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite this dis-parity in the dissemination of anti- and pro-vaccine posts, linguistic features that facilitate or inhibit the propagation of vaccine-related content remain less known. Moreover, most prior machine-learning algorithms classified social-media posts into binary categories (e.g., misinformation or not) and have rarely tackled a higher-order classification task based on divergent perspectives about vaccines (e.g., anti-vaccine, pro-vaccine, and neutral). Our objectives are (1) to identify sets of linguistic features that facilitate and inhibit the propagation of vaccine-related content and (2) to compare whether anti-vaccine, pro-vaccine, and neutral tweets contain either set more frequently than the others. To achieve these goals, we collected a large set of social media posts (over 120 million tweets) between Nov. 15 and Dec. 15, 2021, coinciding with the Omicron variant surge. A two-stage framework was developed using a fine-tuned BERT classifier, demonstrating over 99 and 80 percent accuracy for binary and ternary classification. Finally, the Linguistic Inquiry Word Count text analysis tool was used to count linguistic features in each classified tweet. Our regression results show that anti-vaccine tweets are propagated (i.e., retweeted), while pro-vaccine tweets garner passive endorsements (i.e., favorited). Our results also yielded the two sets of linguistic features as facilitators and inhibitors of the propagation of vaccine-related tweets. Finally, our regression results show that anti-vaccine tweets tend to use the facilitators, while pro-vaccine counterparts employ the inhibitors. These findings and algorithms from this study will aid public health officials' efforts to counteract vaccine misinformation, thereby facilitating the delivery of preventive measures during pandemics and epidemics.","PeriodicalId":120923,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH)","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127362816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this work involves revealing patterns of typing behavior among a population of healthy subjects and evaluating the applied methodology concerning a prospective clinical study on the determination of digital biomarkers for neurocognitive diseases. Therefore, this work introduces a modified version of the iOS default keyboard to measure typing speed and variation in character usage. A study is conducted on eleven healthy subjects to collect typing metrics for one week. The core results of the data analysis yield a positive-skewed distribution for typing speed and homogeneity in typing behavior among the population. Due to the similar statistical properties in typing behavior among healthy people, further studies surrounding subjects with neurocognitive impairment and diverse demographics are encouraged.","PeriodicalId":120923,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131380826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Automated analysis of the drawing process has been studied as a promising means for screening prodromal and clinical dementia, providing multifaceted information encompassing features, such as drawing speed, pen posture, writing pressure, and pauses. We examined the feasibility of using these features not only for detecting prodromal and clinical dementia but also for predicting the severity of cognitive impairments assessed using Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) as well as the severity of neuropathological changes assessed by medial temporal lobe (MTL) atrophy. We collected drawing data with a digitizing tablet and pen from 145 older adults of cognitively normal (CN), MCI, and dementia. The nested cross-validation results indicate that the combination of drawing features could be used to classify CN, MCI, and dementia with an AUC of 0.909 and 75.1% accuracy (CN vs. MCI: 82.4% accuracy; CN vs. dementia: 92.2% accuracy; MCI vs. dementia: 80.3% accuracy) and predict MMSE scores with an $R2$ of 0.491 and severity of MTL atrophy with an $R2$ of 0.293.

Although previous research has used passively sensed data through smartphones to identify users' mental health state, including loneliness, anxiety, depression, and even schizophrenia, the issue of user data privacy in this context has not been well addressed. Here we focus on the feeling of loneliness, which, if persistent, is associated with a number of negative health outcomes. While modern artificial intelligence technology, specifically machine learning, can assist in detecting loneliness or depression, current approaches have applied machine learning to centrally collected user data at a single location with the potential to compromise user data privacy. To address the issue of privacy, we investigated the feasibility of using federated learning on single user data to identify loneliness collected by different smartphone sensors. Federated learning can help protect user privacy by avoiding the transmission of sensitive data from mobile devices to a central server location. To evaluate the federated method's performance in detecting loneliness, we also trained models on all user data using a centralised machine learning approach and compared the results. The results indicate that federated learning has considerable promise for detecting loneliness in a binary classification problem while maintaining user data privacy.","PeriodicalId":120923,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130396039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of such solutions is the use of technologies to cope with mental health challenges. Though a plethora of technology exists for communication and socialization with several others proposed to deal with mental health breakdown during the pandemic, there is no ‘one-size fits all’ technology that has been identified to address every individual's distress level and coping strategy.
