Summary

This study is testing a digital toolkit that uses AI and wearable sensors to assess pain and distress in people with mild to moderate dementia. The goal is to see if the toolkit is easy to use and accurate. If it works, it could help caregivers better understand and respond to the needs of people with dementia, especially in palliative care.
