Disease Care System for Alzheimer’s Caretaker

Abstract - In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the significant challenges posed by Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and the need for innovative solutions to improve the quality of life for affected individuals. As AD prevalence continues to rise, technological advancements offer promising opportunities to address the multifaceted needs of patients and caregivers. This survey paper thoroughly investigates technological innovations in AD care, offering valuable insights into cutting-edge approaches that have the potential to positively impact the lives of affected individuals. By providing a holistic view of available assistive solutions, we review 2459 papers and selected 46 relevant studies published between 2015 and 2023, specifically focusing on healthcare technologies and solutions, utilizing sensing methods. The former will include Telemedicine, E-health, Smart Environment, Internet of Things (IoT), Ambient Assisted Living (AAL), Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), and Personalized Assistive Solutions (PAS), while the latter encompasses Wearable/Environmental, Radio/Audio, Video/Image, and Digital Platforms. Our comparative assessment of recent survey papers reveals the unique contribution of this study, as it comprehensively examines the intersection of multiple parameters. By summarizing insights from these studies, we identify gaps and recommend future directions for advancements in AD care.
