User-Centered Design of Serious Games for Older Adults Following 3 Years of Experience With Exergames for Seniors: A Study Design

User-Centered Design of Serious Games for Older Adults Following 3 Years of Experience With Exergames for Seniors: A Study Design

We have identified some initiatives and research aimed at providing guidelines for the design and accessibility of websites for elderly people [32-40]. Age Light [33] points out the importance of player-centered design, meaning that the seniors should be brought in early in the design process. An affordance-based approach to designing a game was followed by Awad et al [41] emphasizing “the type of action the user can perform but also when (response times) and how it can be performed (range of motion).”

Telemedicine Integrated Care Versus In-Person Care Mode for Patients With Short Stature: Comprehensive Comparison of a Retrospective Cohort Study

Telemedicine Integrated Care Versus In-Person Care Mode for Patients With Short Stature: Comprehensive Comparison of a Retrospective Cohort Study

Telemedicine not only delivers clinical effectiveness but also enhances accessibility. Telemedicine transcends temporal and spatial constraints [13], mitigating the risk of delayed or missed medical consultations for patients with chronic diseases [8,14,15]. Consequently, it curtails the financial burden associated with untimely interventions [16,17]. The assessment of access mostly relies on the quantification of medical consultations (ie, number of visits in a given period).

Access to Primary Care Telemedicine and Visit Characterization in a Pediatric, Low-Income, Primarily Latino Population: Retrospective Study

Access to Primary Care Telemedicine and Visit Characterization in a Pediatric, Low-Income, Primarily Latino Population: Retrospective Study

This is not specifically targeted at non-English and non-Spanish speakers; however, if adapted to serve these populations, for example, with the routine use of interpreters, it could also function to increase accessibility. In our literature review, we find that both interventions have been used to a greater extent for adult populations [16,17]. Interestingly, in our study population, being Latino was associated with higher odds of both portal activation and having at least 1 visit.

Revolutionizing Care: Unleashing the Potential of Digital Health Technology in Physiotherapy Management for People With Cystic Fibrosis

Revolutionizing Care: Unleashing the Potential of Digital Health Technology in Physiotherapy Management for People With Cystic Fibrosis

While global standards of clinical care exist, there will be variations in the implementation of these and DHTs due to socioeconomic factors, availability of infrastructure, and accessibility in health care settings and beyond [13,14]. Irrespective of these challenges, an awareness of data storage, accessibility, and safety of data is essential, and the physiotherapist must be mindful of these factors. CF physiotherapy has progressed to a more active, patient-centered approach to clinical care [11,12].

Performance of a Full-Coverage Cervical Cancer Screening Program Using on an Artificial Intelligence– and Cloud-Based Diagnostic System: Observational Study of an Ultralarge Population

The evaluation encompassed 4 key dimensions: accessibility of screening services, screening efficiency, diagnostic quality, and cost of different institutions. The assessment provided real-world evidence of the adoption of AI technology to improve screening coverage for other provinces in China and LMICs.

Developing a Capsule Clinic—A 24-Hour Institution for Improving Primary Health Care Accessibility: Evidence From China

In exploring suitable methods to meet people’s increasing demands, countries are establishing intelligent medical models in telehealth to provide convenient health services [4] and solve geographical, temporal, and economic problems of accessibility to health care. Doctors use telehealth to transmit digital imaging, conduct video consultations, and make medical diagnoses.

Designing Mindfulness Conversational Agents for People With Early-Stage Dementia and Their Caregivers: Thematic Analysis of Expert and User Perspectives

The use of conversational agents could improve accessibility, as they allow users to access them in the comfort of their own homes instead of traveling to a physical location. They also allow users to access them at any time, as opposed to having to wait for a guide through physical groups or telephone calls.
