BACKGROUND Interest in digital technologies in the health care sector is growing and can be a way to reduce the burden on professional caregivers while helping people to become more independent. Social robots are regarded as a special form of technology that can be usefully applied in professional caregiving with the potential to focus on interpersonal contact. While implementation is progressing slowly, a debate on the concepts and applications of social robots in future care is necessary. OBJECTIVE In addition to existing studies with a focus on societal attitudes toward social robots, there is a need to understand the views of professional caregivers and patients. This study used desired future scenarios to collate the perspectives of experts and analyze the significance for developing the place of social robots in care. METHODS In February 2020, an expert workshop was held with 88 participants (health professionals and educators; [PhD] students of medicine, health care, professional care, and technology; patient advocates; software developers; government representatives; and research fellows) from Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Using the scenario methodology, the possibilities of analog professional care (Analog Care), fully robotic professional care (Robotic Care), teams of robots and professional caregivers (Deep Care), and professional caregivers supported by robots (Smart Care) were discussed. The scenarios were used as a stimulus for the development of ideas about future professional caregiving. The discussion was evaluated using qualitative content analysis. RESULTS The majority of the experts were in favor of care in which people are supported by technology (Deep Care) and developed similar scenarios with a focus on dignity-centeredness. The discussions then focused on the steps necessary for its implementation, highlighting a strong need for the development of eHealth competence in society, a change in the training of professional caregivers, and cross-sectoral concepts. The experts also saw user acceptance as crucial to the use of robotics. This involves the acceptance of both professional caregivers and care recipients. CONCLUSIONS The literature review and subsequent workshop revealed how decision-making about the value of social robots depends on personal characteristics related to experience and values. There is therefore a strong need to recognize individual perspectives of care before social robots become an integrated part of care in the future.

Das Shaker-Manöver, kräftige Schlucken, Chin-Tuck und Chin-Tuck against resistance sind bereits etablierte und häufig angewendete Schluck-Interventionen in der logopädischen Dysphagie-Rehabilitation. Der Sonntagsschluck (SS) stellt eine Kombination aus diesen Schlucktechniken dar und findet bereits Anwendung im klinischen Kontext. Eine Evaluation dieser logopädischen Intervention im Sinne der evidenzbasierten Praxis steht jedoch noch aus. Die folgende Bachelorarbeit evaluiert daher die Wirkweise des SS auf die schluckre-levante suprahyoidale Muskulatur.
Zur Überprüfung der Wirkweise wurde eine quantitativ-empirische Studie mit einem Within-Gruppen-Design durchgeführt. Insgesamt wurden 33 gesunde ProbandInnen (n = 33) zwi-schen 20 und 39 Jahren in die Datenauswertung aufgenommen. Da der SS mit der Oberflächen-Elektromyographie (SEMG) nicht evaluierbar war, wurde der Löffelschluck (LS), welcher demselben Wirkprinzip folgt, als Alternative eingesetzt. Die suprahyoidale Muskelaktivität und Muskelaktivitätszeit bei dem NS und dem LS wurden mithilfe von SEMG als Outcomes gemessen. Für die Evaluation des SS wurde ein schriftlicher Fragebogen ausgefüllt, der den subjektiv wahrgenommenen Kraftaufwand des NS, LS und SS maß. Die Daten wurden mit SPSS ausgewertet.
Der alternative LS zeigte in der SEMG-Messung eine signifikant höhere Muskelaktivität (p = ,009) und Muskelaktivitätszeit (p = ,000) als der NS. Auch der subjektiv wahrgenommene Kraftaufwand wurde im Fragebogen beim LS und SS höchstsignifikant (p = ,000) höher eingeschätzt als der NS. Darüber hinaus zeigte eine Korrelationsanalyse der LS- und der SS-Fragebogen-Werte eine signifikante positive Korrelation (Korrelation nach Pearson = ,560, p = ,001), sodass davon ausgegangen werden kann, dass diese Schlucktechniken miteinander vergleichbar sind. Eine Korrelationsanalyse der SEMG-Werte vom LS mit den Fragebogen-Werte des LS (Korrelation nach Pearson = ,122) und des SS (Korrelation nach Pearson = ,214) zeigte jedoch keine signifikante Korrelation.
Zusammenfassend zeigen die Ergebnisse, dass durch einen gesetzten Widerstand beim Schlucken unter dem Kinn die suprahyoidale Muskulatur bei gesunden ProbandInnen akti-viert wird. Die Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass der LS und SS mit ihrem Wirkmechanismus die suprahyoidale Muskulatur langfristig als Strength-Übung stärken könnten. Eine Übertra-gung der Ergebnisse auf Dysphagie-PatientInnen ist jedoch kritisch zu betrachten und bedarf weiterer Forschung.
Background
During shortages of filtering face pieces (FFP) in a pandemic, it is necessary to implement a method for safe reuse or extended use. Our aim was to develop a simple, inexpensive and ecological method for decontamination of disposable FFPs that preserves filtration efficiency and material integrity.

Specific alterations in electroencephalography (EEG)-based brain activity have recently been linked to binge-eating disorder (BED), generating interest in treatment options targeting these neuronal processes. This randomized-controlled pilot study examined the effectiveness and feasibility of two EEG neurofeedback paradigms in the reduction of binge eating, eating disorder and general psychopathology, executive functioning, and EEG activity. Adults with BED and overweight (N = 39) were randomly assigned to either a food-specific EEG neurofeedback paradigm, aiming at reducing fronto-central beta activity and enhancing theta activity after viewing highly palatable food pictures, or a general EEG neurofeedback paradigm training the regulation of slow cortical potentials. In both conditions, the study design included a waiting period of 6 weeks, followed by 6 weeks EEG neurofeedback (10 sessions à 30 min) and a 3-month follow-up period. Both EEG neurofeedback paradigms significantly reduced objective binge-eating episodes, global eating disorder psychopathology, and food craving. Approximately one third of participants achieved abstinence from objective binge-eating episodes after treatment without any differences between treatments. These results were stable at 3-month follow-up. Among six measured executive functions, only decision making improved at posttreatment in both paradigms, and cognitive flexibility was significantly improved after food-specific neurofeedback only. Both EEG neurofeedback paradigms were equally successful in reducing relative beta and enhancing relative theta power over fronto-central regions. The results highlight EEG neurofeedback as a promising treatment option for individuals with BED. Future studies in larger samples are needed to determine efficacy and treatment mechanisms.
Body shaming (BS) is a popular term for a type of negative social interaction, which frequently occurs in social media. However, there is a lack of a clear scientific definition of BS and data on its relation to other concepts in social aggression research. The present study therefore aimed at providing a definition and classification of BS. In an exploratory online-study, 25 participants (60%) provided personal definitions of BS and rated the fit of a suggested definition. In addition, they reported similarities with and differences to related concepts (appearance teasing, cyberbullying, trolling). We conducted qualitative analyses of the verbal definitions guided by the Grounded Theory approach and quantified the fit to existing concepts in the field of social aggression. The results show that BS is perceived as an unrepeated act in which a person expresses unsolicited, mostly negative opinions/comments about a target’s body, without necessarily intending to harm him/her. Still, the target perceives the comments as negative. BS can range from well-meant advice to malevolent insults and it can occur online and offline. Participants saw similarities between BS and appearance teasing. BS can be a tool for trolling and can evolve to cyberbullying with repetition over time. Altogether, BS is a form of social aggression that has a negative impact on individuals. The definition and classification help to investigate BS and its effects on body image and mental health in future research.
The PosiThera project focuses on the management of chronic wounds, which is multi-professional and multi-disciplinary. For this context, a software prototype was developed in the project, which is intended to support medical and nursing staff with the assistance of artificial intelligence. In accordance with the user-centred design, national workshops were held at the beginning of the project with the involvement of domain experts in wound care in order to identify requirements and use cases of IT systems in wound care, with a focus on AI. In this study, the focus was on involving nursing and nursing science staff in testing the software prototype to gain insights into its functionality and usability. The overarching goal of the iterative testing and adaptation process is to further develop the prototype in a way that is close to care.
