The emergence of smart technologies in homes comes with various services and functions for everyday life. While a smart home (SH) is associated with great potential in terms of comfort and risk treatment, it also introduces new and alters existing risks. Despite a growing number of academic studies on SH risks, research is fragmented with regard to its focus on certain disciplines and is still rather technology-focused. In this paper, we fill this gap by providing a comprehensive understanding of relevant risks through a systematic literature review. Following the guidelines of the PRISMA reporting protocol, we search 1196 academic and practitioners’ publications related to household risks or risk perceptions of SH users. A final set of 59 records results in three main themes. They include (1) a synthesis of pre-existing and emerging risks sketching the new risk landscape of SH households, (2) a discussion of the prevailing risk evaluation methods, and (3) a presentation of SH-related risk treatment options with a particular emphasis on insurance. We specify the influence of SH on risks and risk perception, and highlight the relevance of analyzing the interconnection of risks in complex systems, such as SH. Our review lays the basis for assessing SH risks and for enabling more comprehensive and effective risk management optimization.

Improve Patient

IntroductionIdiopathic Parkinson syndrome (iPS) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders characterised by the triad of bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor. Tremor at rest predominantly at one side is often perceived by patients as severely disabling and yet ranges among the most difficult symptoms to treat. In medically refractory cases, lesional approaches have proven to be effective alternatives. However, to date, there is no comprehensive analysis of non-surgical therapies to manage iPS-patients’ tremor. We therefore present a detailed study protocol for a systematic literature review assessing efficacy/effectiveness and safety of non-lesional treatments for tremor in iPS.Methods and analysisWe will search three electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE and PsycINFO) using a combination of title/abstract keywords. Additionally, hand-searched reference and citation lists of key reviews identified through the search strategy will be screened. Eligible studies should investigate the efficacy/effectiveness and safety of therapeutic options for tremor in iPS excluding lesional interventions. Publications will be independently assessed for inclusion criteria by two investigators and study information summarised using a standardised template including quality assessment according to the QualSyst tool. We will provide a narrative synthesis of results and conduct a meta-analysis whenever possible.Ethics and disseminationWe commit to present contemporary evidence on the efficacy/effectiveness and safety of non-lesional interventions for tremor in iPS in a future publication. We aim to compile rich data of published studies to inform healthcare professionals in order to ultimately improve patient outcomes.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42020202911).

With asthma being one of the leading causes of death in different countries, the emphasis on improving the health of asthma patients is important. While the use of smart technologies is a good approach for improving the health of asthma patients, technologies need to be connected in such a way that all components of smart health form an ecosystem. However, the components of such an ecosystem have not been identified in the current literature. The purpose of this chapter was to identify the components of a smart health ecosystem for asthma patients through a systematic literature review. A total of 28 articles met the inclusion criteria. This chapter identified the components of a smart health ecosystem for asthma patients and provided a conceptual framework. The findings of the systematic literature review are expected to inform researchers on the components required for building a smart health ecosystem for asthma patients.
