Monitoring physical behavior in pediatric physical therapy: A mixed methods feasibility study to evaluate a newly developed toolkit and training
The AM-p Toolkit shows promise in PPT, with generally positive acceptability among all end-users. PPTs see potential for certain groups of children who can benefit from the AM-p Toolkit. Practicality requires improvements in the web application and refinement of the strap. Training is important and can be strengthened by emphasizing the analysis of assessment results, clinical reasoning, and functional goal-setting.
