doi:10.3969/j.issn.1003-9198.2025.08.001

Abstract

Abstract: The care for disabled elderly population has emerged as a pressing public issue in aging societies, sparking extensive discussions. More critically, it poses tremendous challenges to caregivers due to escalating costs and complex multidimensional demands. Improving the quality of life for this population has become an urgent priority in China. This paper reviews the current applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in the care of elderly people with physical disabilities, aiming to provide references for the clinical application of AI technology in the care of disabled elderly in China.

Key words: artificial intelligence, physical disabilities, aged, care
