In this context, video games are rising as promising tools to guide patients through their recovery experience and to increase their motivation throughout the rehabilitation path. However, to be applied to clinical scenarios, video games must be designed to adhere to the clinical requirements and to meet doctors/patients expectations. They also need to be integrated within multi-level platforms that can allow different levels of monitoring, e.g., at a personal level by the therapist, at the hospital level by the doctors, and at the regional level by the government agencies. In this paper, we overview an intelligent game engine for the at-home rehabilitation of stroke patients The engine provides several games that implement actual rehabilitation exercises and have been developed in strict collaboration with therapists. It is integrated in a patient station that provides several types of monitoring and feedback using virtual and/or human therapists.","PeriodicalId":170908,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SeGAH)","volume":"174 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122053364","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}

Current treatment methods can result in weight loss in the short term but often fail in the longer term. Increasing motivation and thereby improving adherence can be a key factor in achieving the needed behavioral change. One approach is to address affective state (i.e. to promote positive emotions) by making people aware of their condition in a playful manner, possibly with peer interaction. Serious gaming is envisioned as one way to achieve this. Based on a study of the scientific evidence, the serious game `Healthy Weight Game!' was designed. The design incorporates most of the features shown to be beneficial in the scientific literature. An evaluation of the design involving a survey of 53 subjects produced positive results. The game was well understood and seen as a good method to help people lose weight and induce positive behavioral change. It was seen as a good addition to own initiatives for being physically active and as a useful addition to dieting and physical therapy. The design of the game (appearance and content) was positively received. Some gender differences were found in reactions to features such as visualization of goal achievements (e.g. avatar getting thinner as exercise goals are reached) and the kind of informative feedback which was appreciated. Overall the game design was rated 7.57/10 over all respondents. We conclude that this design demonstrates potential for improving physical and, indirectly, mental health of people facing overweight and obesity by increasing adherence and promoting sustainable behavioral change. Next steps are to implement the game and conduct a larger scale evaluation.","PeriodicalId":170908,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SeGAH)","volume":"150 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133918476","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}

This systematic review aims to provide a synthesis of the current knowledge regarding physical activity promotion in overweight children and adolescents through AVG play. Methods: We conducted a search strategy in PubMed on 25th January 2012, using the following key-words based on PICO (Population, Intervention, Control and Outcome) model: Child*, Adolescen*, Teenager, Youth, Obes*, Overweight, Active Video Games, Exergam*, Video gam*, Exertainment, New generation computer game, Physical Activity, Fitness, Exercise, Motor activit*, Energy expenditure. The search was limited to English-language papers in peer-reviewed journals, published between 1st January 2008 and 31st December 2011. Results: We found 124 articles in which eight were extracted, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria (two experimental trials and six observational studies). Conclusion: AVG use increases PA from light to moderate intensity. Nevertheless, most of these studies where developed in laboratorial context. In overweight children and adolescent the use of home-based AVG may be an opportunity to increase PA, developing motor skills and overcoming physical inactivity barriers.","PeriodicalId":170908,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SeGAH)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123675348","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}

There is the awareness that patient education will be vital. Collection of data on pharmaceutical services and diagnosis of the use of IT in pharmacy settings was made with the application of a survey. A set of pharmacies was selected to study the pattern of services' provision supported by observational studies to evaluate the economic and clinical value of services to patients. The results will allow a better understanding of pharmaceutical services' delivery and a new perspective for pharmaceutical services integration with the health system. Due to the shortage of physicians, the development of a new internet based pharmaceutical service with educational components could be an important contribution to an effective chronic diseases' management and to change the role of patients. Furthermore there is the necessity of rethinking the community pharmacy business model to effectively integrate within future health systems.","PeriodicalId":170908,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health (SeGAH)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116697407","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}
