An ICF Decision Supporting System Based on Sensoring Technologies

In recent years, Taiwan's social structure changed dramatically. Studies show that Taiwan is facing the impact of "aging population society" and "fewer children". With the awareness of Environmental Change and Social Welfare, Taiwan gradually pays attention to the interests and welfare of the handicapped. Taiwan was admitted to officially join the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (Abbreviated to ICF) as Taiwan's disability classification assessment principles. Due to ICF assessment provision, at least every five years or a career change must re-evaluate to re-determine services acquisition and resources allocation based on the assessment requirements, it causes to spend a lot of time on assessment process. According to lack of medical staffs, we use Xtion to begin ICF test about measuring the mobility of joints. Together with the trend of population aging and increasing of dementia population in Taiwan, we also add a detection of Dementia in the system. Besides, we establish the subject's result into the database so that medical staffs could check the condition of patients immediately on the mobile or the computer.
