Smart monitoring technology to support home-based dementia care: Market-specific business model development and implementation considerations in the Netherlands.
Article in Digital health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Remote monitoring (RM) technology can support home-based dementia care by enabling (in)formal caregivers to monitor the health and safety of people with dementia remotely. However, sustainable implementation is challenged by a lack of viable business models and a limited understanding of the markets in which these models might operate. This study aimed to (1) develop business models for RM technology in the Dutch consumer-, healthcare-, and social support market, and (2) identify entrepreneurial opportunities and challenges of implementing RM technology via those markets. Methods: Semistructured interviews and focus groups were conducted among three stakeholder groups ( Results: The analysis resulted in three distinct business models which specify how RM technology for home-based dementia care could be sustainably implemented in the a) consumer market, b) healthcare market, and c) social support market. Possible entrepreneurial opportunities and challenges of implementing RM technology were identified per market. Topics dealt with, for instance, reaching potential user groups, time to market, the complexity of structural reimbursement, scalability, and alignment with future care trends. Conclusions: Our findings add to the limited research on the entrepreneurial side of implementing dementia care technology. The proposed business models and insights into market-specific considerations can guide developers in refining implementation strategies and selecting suitable markets for RM technology and other home care technologies.
