Development of a Reminiscence Therapy Online Platform With Machine Learning to Increase Engagement With People Living With Dementia and Their Care Partners
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating LifeBio Memory for Dementia and Cognitive Impairment. Completed, enrolled 234 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Non-pharmacological interventions and person-centered care strategies are important elements of care for people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Life story work, which uses written and oral life histories to elicit conversation and memories, is an effective intervention for individuals with dementia; however, because of the time-consuming nature of generating useful life story materials, has not been widely implemented in nursing homes and other care environments. LifeBio Inc. will develop an easy-to-use reminiscence therapy platform - LifeBio MemoryTM - with a novel machine-learning-based application that converts speech to text and generates life stories to serve as an interactive tool to cultivate communication between people living with dementia and their family and caregivers.

Interventions
LifeBio Memory is a digital reminiscence therapy platform designed to collect the life stories of older adults to generate personalized life storybooks that capture their unique narratives and social histories. Life story booklets, summaries, and materials are also developed as mechanisms for sharing this story and for staff to provide enhanced person-centered care.
