There is an urgent need to develop actions that promote participation of children with disabilities, but there is still limited understanding of processes that may enable it. This study focuses on how the participants (five parents, two teachers, three therapists) enhance participation of Finnish children with neurological disabilities at school, home, and in the therapy and how participants develop multifunctional collaboration to promote participation. Participants were interviewed five times in group interviews for one year. The data were analysed with a qualitative grounded theory approach. Three central factors enhancing participation were found: factors preparing and building participation and factors promoting participation in action. A participatory multifunctional collaboration model enhancing participation showed that collaboration is built up through a child-centred approach by sharing information and know-how and by transcending adults’ prejudices and fears.","PeriodicalId":46073,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135361395","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 main objective of this study was to compare the effects of dry needling (DN) and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for the management of MNP among healthcare workers. A single blind RCT (n = 30) was conducted at the Neuro Counsel Clinic, Islamabad. Simple convenient sampling techniques were used to recruit participants of age 20-50 years who had no comorbidity of any kind. Two equal groups were made. Group A received DN for ×1/day for 2 weeks and Group B received TENS at the rate of ×2/day for 2 weeks. Data were evaluated on the basis of Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and Neck Disability Index (NDI) score. Prepost data were analyzed for within group (Wilcoxon rank test) and between groups (Mann–Whitney U test). The level of significance was kept at P < 0.05. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) of age in Group A was 33.87 ± 8.18 while in Group B it was 33.67 ± 7.60. Wilcoxon rank test revealed that both techniques are effective for within-group analysis (P < 0.001). Mann–Whitney U test revealed that both techniques showed no significant results on NPRS score as P > 0.05 but the NDI score revealed that there is a significant difference between groups (P < 0.05). On the basis of results, it is concluded that DN is more effective when compared to TENS for disability management in MNP sufferers.","PeriodicalId":46073,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83564362","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}

Any breakdown in their coupling has been linked to ageing or illness. These physiological signals are nonstationary, and this paper analyses the transfer functions of nonstationary multidimensional time series of physiological signals. In this work, a method that integrates physiological modelling and functional elements into the smart bed for patients is proposed. This work includes experimentation on 10 smart bed patients. The proposed idea is validated and analysed to automatically capture any changes in the physiological signals due to postural changes, any impact of ageing or any requirement of a medical emergency. Next, it is demonstrated that the proposed method can be used to identify transient changes linked to medical emergencies for the given time-series data. These findings show the value of the proposed method in predicting the complicated vital-sign processes where conventional manual autoregulatory systems may fail in both healthy and pathological situations. The relation between the time series of physiological signals is an essential study field. A reliable time-varying model is presented to account for the possible nonstationarity of physiological data to determine the possibility of emergency care for patients. The suggested approach can identify variations and relations between signals because it is built as a dynamic model based on time-varying parameters. The technique used in this research includes readings of heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen level connected to the patient’s smart bed. The paper includes transient analysis and parametric evaluation as part of this work.","PeriodicalId":46073,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81141506","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}

It is a procedure of nonverbal conversation of data which stimulates great concerns regarding the offer of human–computer interaction methods, while permitting users to express themselves intuitively and naturally in various contexts. In most contexts, hand gestures play a vital role in the domain of assistive technologies for visually impaired people (VIP), but an optimum user interaction design is of great significance. The existing studies on the assisting of VIP mostly concentrate on resolving a single task (like reading text or identifying obstacles), thus making the user switch applications for performing other actions. Therefore, this research presents an interactive gesture technique using sand piper optimization with the deep belief network (IGSPO-DBN) technique. The purpose of the IGSPO-DBN technique enables people to handle the devices and exploit different assistance models by the use of different gestures. The IGSPO-DBN technique detects the gestures and classifies them into several kinds using the DBN model. To boost the overall gesture-recognition rate, the IGSPO-DBN technique exploits the SPO algorithm as a hyperparameter optimizer. The simulation outcome of the IGSPO-DBN approach was tested on gesture-recognition dataset and the outcomes showed the improvement of the IGSPO-DBN algorithm over other systems.","PeriodicalId":46073,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87370469","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}

Remote monitoring of disabled and elderly people living in smart homes is challenging. Localization and positioning in indoor surroundings need unique solutions. Moreover, positioning remains a crucial feature of any navigation system that assists visually impaired persons (VIPs) in mobility. Other indispensable features of a common indoor navigation system are obstacle avoidance, pathfinding, and abilities for user communication. In recent times, the arrival of smartphones, artificial intelligence, IoT, wearables, etc. makes it possible to devise indoor monitoring systems for smart homecare. Therefore, this study presents an Improved Beluga Whale Optimization Algorithm with fuzzy-based Indoor Activity Monitoring (IBWOA-FIMS) for elderly and VIPs. The presented IBWOA-FIMS technique mainly focused on the identification and classification of indoor activities of elderly and disabled people. To accomplish this, the IBWOA-FIMS technique employs an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) model for the indoor monitoring process. In order to improve the monitoring results of the IBWOA-FIMS technique, the IBWOA is used to adjust the parameters related to the ANFIS model. For illustrating the enhanced indoor monitoring results of the IBWOA-FIMS technique, a series of simulations were performed. The simulation values portrayed the betterment of the IBWOA-FIMS technique in terms of different metrics.","PeriodicalId":46073,"journal":{"name":"Scandinavian Journal of Disability Research","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90766746","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}
