日本には慢性疾患を持つ高齢者が多く,在宅で食事療法を行う場合がある.しかし,既存の食事調査法は記憶への依存が大きく,高齢者への継続的な食事調査の実施は困難である.そこで,高齢者と栄養士のための栄養管理システムを開発した.本システムは,多様な料理に対応するために,新規料理登録機能を持つ.平均年齢約70歳の被験者15名を対象に,本システムの評価実験を行った.システムの利用履歴とアンケートより,被験者15名中13名が毎日食事記録を行えたことを確認した.また,11名は,食事記録に対するシステムからのフィードバックも毎日受け取った.実験の結果,本システムを用いて情報機器の利用経験が少ない高齢者に対する食事調査と栄養管理の実施の可能性を示した.さらに,実験期間に高齢者が新規登録した料理323件中314件が栄養士向けシステムより修正され,より正確なフィードバックを高齢者に提供することができた.

A significant number of elderly people suffer from chronic diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. In general, the elderly are prescribed a medical diet in order to treat such illnesses. However, it is not easy to investigate their eating habits. To the best of our knowledge, the existing methods for monitoring the diet of the elderly are unsuitable. In this paper, we propose a nutrition management system that is easy to use for dietitians as well as the elderly. This system consists of a novel dish registration function that allows users to register various dishes. We evaluated our system by experimenting with 15 subjects with an average age of approximately 70 years. Based on the results of a questionnaire and our system's usage history, we could determine that 13 out of the 15 subjects were able to record their diet daily. Moreover, 11 subjects received reminders from our system to record their diet daily. We propose that the system can perform meal investigation and nutrition management for the elderly. During the experimental period, 314 out of 323 dish data were corrected when the elderly subjects entered new dishes in the system. The dietitians could view this data in the system. We show that our proposed system can provide useful feedback to elderly users.
