ABSTRACT

O estudo identificou as Tecnologias Assistivas (TA) para idosos com Doença de Alzheimer (DA), no Brasil e no exterior, e mostrou que as TAs são projetadas para idosos com DA no estágio leve e necessitam de auxilio de cuidadores. Discute o impacto social causado pela utilização destas tecnologias dentro do contexto nacional e analisa que, no Brasil, tais tecnologias carecem de investimentos e incentivos governamentais, tornando-se um desafio social, econômico e cultural para futura implementação no país.
