“…EMA methods are used in psychological research [ 3 ]. Studies have used EMA methods to investigate individual affect [ 5 - 8 ], behavioral problems [ 9 ], and daily mental health symptoms [ 5 , 6 , 10 ]. For depression research, EMA has much to offer in terms of improving researchers’ understanding of depression because of advantages such as minimizing recall bias and detecting fluctuation of mood for a longer time [ 3 , 8 ].…”

“…Moore et al [ 12 ] found compatible psychometrics between traditional pen-and-paper and smartphone versions of EMA in emotionally distressed older adults. Among the growing body of EMA research in this area, many studies involved mixed age groups, such as middle-aged or older adults with younger participants [ 6 , 7 , 9 , 10 , 13 - 33 ]. Thus, it is unclear how older adults’ characteristics were reflected during data collection and interpretation using EMA because older adults with mental health problems frequently have decreased self-confidence and less motivation to use new technology [ 34 ].…”

Possible Application of Ecological Momentary Assessment to Older Adults’ Daily Depressive Mood: Integrative Literature Review

Background Ecological momentary assessment is a method of investigating individuals’ real-time experiences, behaviors, and moods in their natural environment over time. Despite its general usability and clinical value for evaluating daily depressive mood, there are several methodological challenges when applying ecological momentary assessment to older adults. Objective The aims of this integrative literature review were to examine possible uses of the ecological momentary assessment methodology with older adults and to suggest strategies to increase the feasibility of its application in geriatric depression research and practice. Methods We searched 4 electronic databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and EMBASE) and gray literature; we also hand searched the retrieved articles’ references. We limited all database searches to articles published in peer-reviewed journals from 2009 to 2019. Search terms were “ecological momentary assessment,” “smartphone assessment,” “real time assessment,” “electronic daily diary,” “mHealth momentary assessment,” “mobile-based app,” and “experience sampling method,” combined with the relevant terms of depression. We included any studies that enrolled older adults even as a subgroup and that reported depressive mood at least once a day for more than 2 days. Results Of the 38 studies that met the inclusion criteria, only 1 study enrolled adults aged 65 years or older as the entire sample; the remainder of the reviewed studies used mixed samples of both younger and older adults. Most of the analyzed studies (18/38, 47%) were quantitative, exploratory (descriptive, correlational, and predictive), and cohort in design. Ecological momentary assessment was used to describe the fluctuating pattern of participants’ depressive moods primarily and to examine the correlation between mood patterns and other health outcomes as a concurrent symptom. We found 3 key methodological issues: (1) heterogeneity in study design and protocol, (2) issues with definitions of dropout and adherence, and (3) variation in how depressive symptoms were measured with ecological momentary assessment. Some studies (8/38, 21%) examined the age difference of participants with respect to dropout or poor compliance rate. Detailed participant burden was reported, such as technical problems, aging-related health problems, or discomfort while using the device. Conclusions Ecological momentary assessment has been used for comprehensive assessment of multiple mental health indicators in relation to depressive mood. Our findings provide methodological considerations for further studies that may be implemented using ecological momentary assessment to assess daily depressive mood in older adults. Conducting more feasibility studies focusing on older adults with standardized data collection protocols and mixed-methods research is required to reflect users’ experiences. Further telepsychiatric evaluation and diagnosis based on ecological momentary assessment data should involve standardized and sophisticated strategies to maximize the potential of ecological momentary assessment for older adults with depression in the community setting.

“…Secondly, paraplegic patients also experience depression or feelings of isolation when bed ridden and separated from social interactions. Individuals may leave home to manage a depressed mood, but return home when pain and fatigue increases [3]. Yet, paraplegic patients always prefer staying in their beds because they feel comfortable and do not want to be a burden to caregivers.…”

Major drawbacks in caring for patients with physical limitations is that the conventional machines being used in most hospitals look like cages and the features and functions are not convenient for the user at home. As a result, the bed ridden paraplegic patients are unable to use the machines contently. The aim of this research is to show a solution to caring for bed ridden paraplegic patients, in order for them to keep fit at home, and to develop the exercise machine based on the disabled patients' needs-focusing on, full function, strength, safety and its practical usage. The method of study consists of five steps as follows: (1) home visiting for collecting general data, (2) checking the patient's ability and surveying patient's requirement, (3) setting ultimate goals from multi-professionals including family physician, rehabilitation doctor, physiotherapist, nurses and engineers, (4) designing the machine using software and building the prototype, and (5) testing a machine at the patient's home. The result of satisfaction after re-strengthening for a month was compared, at different times, between two disabled male patients of different ages and level of spine injury using two different types of exercise machines: MODEL1 and 2. One solution in dealing with health problems of the bed ridden paraplegic patients is a well-developed exercise programme from the multidisciplinary team. This helps the patients to exercise as suggested by diet, mental health support, as well as, exercise equipment which can provide many other benefits to bed ridden paraplegic patients. Moreover, with the development of the exercise machine, corrects inequality in health for handicap patients, specifically to tantamount with normal patients.
