ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The reduction of the older people's self-sufficiency and the increase in the need for help in daily activities has a significant impact on the person and their caregivers. The primary objective of the GUARDIAN project is to enable the older people to live as long as possible at home, by means of the GUARDIAN socio-technical platform.Methods:
andAnalysis:
The GUARDIAN platform consists of two connected apps one dedicated to the caregiver (Caregiver App) and one dedicated to the older people (Senior App), plus a robot (Misty II), to provide coaching in an engaging modality. The study is designed as a technical feasibility pilot to test the GUARDIAN system on a group of older people. Discussions The proposed solution reflects the real wants and needs of the older people person, increasing the acceptability of the system. In addition, the GUARDIAN project has the potential to have distinguished two phases of testing, so that changes can be made to the platform between the first and second phases, using data, both qualitative and quantitative, collected after the first phase. Ethics and dissemination The study was approved by the Ethic Committee of the IRCCS INRCA. It was recorded in ClinicalTrials.gov on the number NCT05284292.
