Robot at home lets hospital patients visit family remotely
NCT ID NCT04899830
Summary
This study tested whether a telepresence robot placed in a patient's home could help them feel more connected while in long-term hospital care. 49 adults with motor or cognitive disabilities, hospitalized for at least two months, used a tablet to control a robot in their home to see and talk with family and friends. Researchers measured how well patients accepted the robot and whether it improved their mood, anxiety, and sense of connection.
