This invention relates to the field of smart
elderly care monitoring technology, and discloses a monitoring method and
system for high-
risk groups in
elderly care institutions based on integrated medical and
elderly care. By modeling the process of returning to the room after an activity as a complete care task, walking, pausing, turning, and stopping at the door in video images are no longer understood as ordinary actions in isolation, but are continuously analyzed under the constraint of whether the elderly person successfully returns to their own room. Features such as target consistency, head and
body orientation differences, approaching the elderly person's own room door without entering, and stopping at the door of a non-elderly person's room are introduced. Before the elderly person falls or mistakenly enters another room, the
system can identify whether the process of returning to the room has deviated. It can also restore the disorientation behavior that is fragmented under the condition of crowd obstruction to the same continuous event, and more accurately distinguish between normal return to the room, short-term waiting, and true disorientation and wandering. This solves the problem that existing
monitoring methods are difficult to continuously identify the deviation of the intention of high-risk
elderly people returning to their rooms and the disorientation and wandering process in the
scenario of returning to the room after an activity.
