The role of assistive devices and technologies in the activities and participation in everyday life of children with cerebral palsy - a scoping review

Findings suggest that AD/ATs can enhance independence in gross motor tasks, interpersonal interactions and self-care, which can promote autonomy and social participation. However, significant research gaps persist regarding their impact across a broader range of domains and further studies are needed to explore the full potential of AD/ATs over time and to improve outcome measures.

Abstract

Findings suggest that AD/ATs can enhance independence in gross motor tasks, interpersonal interactions and self-care, which can promote autonomy and social participation. However, significant research gaps persist regarding their impact across a broader range of domains and further studies are needed to explore the full potential of AD/ATs over time and to improve outcome measures.
