About
Gojiro Nakagami is a leading researcher at the intersection of gerontechnology, nursing science, and robotics, with a primary focus on improving the quality of life for older adults and enhancing the efficiency of care delivery. His work centers on developing and evaluating robotic systems for pressure injury prevention and self-care support. A key contribution is his pioneering study on a robotic mattress equipped with an interface pressure mapping system and automatic air-cell pressure adjustment, which demonstrated significant improvements in patient comfort and pressure redistribution—a critical advancement for immobile patients (10 citations). Nakagami also investigates the long-term use of communication robots (CRs) to sustain self-care behaviors in older adults, integrating vital signs measurement systems to address motivational challenges. His forward-looking perspective on robotic technology in nursing care highlights its potential to streamline workflows and reduce caregiver burden. Through these innovations, Nakagami is shaping a future where robotics seamlessly supports both patient well-being and clinical efficiency.
