Robot seal offers comfort to ease pain in dementia care
NCT ID NCT03591822
Summary
This study tested if using a PARO robot, which looks like a baby seal, could help reduce pain and distress for elderly people with moderate to severe dementia during daily nursing care. Ten participants living in care homes were involved. The idea was that the robot could provide relaxation and distraction, making painful care situations easier to manage.
