The implementation of smart continence care for people with disabilities: A qualitative study of key stakeholders' first-hand experiences.

Introduction: Innovative technological applications like smart continence care (SCC) offer potential benefits in healthcare delivery, particularly for individuals with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD). SCC aims to prompt caregivers to change continence materials, potentially improving clients' quality of life and reducing caregivers' workload. Although the use of SCC in PIMD care is promising, research is needed to improve its use in these complex settings.

Alzheimer's disease clinical variants show distinct neuroinflammatory profiles with neuropathology.

Aims: Although the neuroanatomical distribution of tau and amyloid-β is well studied in Alzheimer's disease (AD) (non)-amnestic clinical variants, that of neuroinflammation remains unexplored. We investigate the neuroanatomical distribution of activated myeloid cells, astrocytes, and complement alongside amyloid-β and phosphorylated tau in a clinically well-defined prospectively collected AD cohort.

Methods: Clinical variants were diagnosed antemortem, and brain tissue was collected post-mortem.

Consensus recommendations for clinical assessment tools for the diagnosis of posterior cortical atrophy syndrome from the Atypical AD PIA of ISTAART.

Introduction: Delay in diagnosis of posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) syndrome is common, and the lack of familiarity with assessment tools for identifying visual cortical dysfunction is a contributing factor. We propose recommendations for the approach to the evaluation of PCA clinical features during the office visit, the neuropsychological evaluation, and the research setting. A recommended screening battery for eye clinics is also proposed.

Barriers and Facilitators to Sustainable Technology Implementation in Care for People With Disabilities-Real World Data From a Three-Year Implementation Programme.

Background: Implementation issues often impede the realisation of the potential benefits of technology in disability care organisations for people with disabilities. Therefore, we conducted a longitudinal study to gain insights into the barriers and facilitators to implementation.

Methods: From 2019 to 2022, data were collected using questionnaires and interviews during 28 implementation projects in 26 disability care organisations.

Barriers and facilitators influencing implementation of care technology for people with intellectual disabilities: A cross-sectional study among care professionals.

Background: Implementation issues often hinder reaching the potential of care technology to improve daily lives of people with intellectual disabilities. We investigated barriers to and facilitators of implementing different technology modalities (app/social robot/sensor/domotics) in long-term care.

Method: Care professionals (N = 83) from 12 Dutch disability care organisations completed a customised measurement instrument for determinants of innovations (MIDI) questionnaire.
