Welfare technology is becoming essential for promoting older adults' well-being, reducing health risks, and enhancing social engagement. While many welfare technology living lab studies focus on single devices, integrating multiple digital tools may offer greater emotional and cognitive benefits. This study investigates the effects of a living lab-based intervention using two digital devices: one targeting cognitive function (D1) and the other targeting physical function (D2).

Objective: Despite advancements in maternity quality care worldwide, mistreatment of women during childbirth persists. Currently, there is a gap of knowledge on the occurrence of disrespect and abuse during childbirth in the World Health Organization (WHO) European region.
Methods: Within the IMAgiNE EURO (Improving Maternal Newborn Care in the WHO European Region During COVID-19 Pandemic) study, women 18 years and older who gave birth in healthcare facilities in the WHO European region, were invited to complete an online validated questionnaire regarding quality of maternity care.
