aceAssessing AI Feasibility for Pain Evaluation in Hospitalized Cognitively Impaired Older Adults
Purpose The objectives for this study were to examine the acceptability and feasibility of using the artificial intelligence-driven application PainChek Ⓡ to identify pain within older adults with cognitive impairment in the inpatient setting within Ontario. Design A prospective cohort design was used. Methods Six nurses were recruited and completed standardized training. Following the recruitment and onboarding of nurse participants, 25 patient participants were enrolled and assessed using the application. Once…
In a small Ontario inpatient study, nurses found an AI-driven pain assessment app acceptable and feasible for identifying pain in older adults with delirium, cognitive impairment, or dementia.
The authors state that more research is needed to evaluate feasibility and scalability in real-world environments, and the study involved only six nurses and 25 patients.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1342 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
