Abstract

This article examines how technology-assisted nursing enhances emotional monitoring in bedridden dementia patients. By integrating tools such as wearable devices, smart sensors, and emotion-tracking software, nurses can detect distress and emotional changes even when patients cannot verbally express themselves. These innovations support timely, personalized interventions while fostering communication between caregivers, healthcare teams, and families.
