Abstract

Purpose: To quantify and explore parental perceptions of their experiences with their child's use of the Explorer Mini (EM) and a modified ride-on car (mROC) in young children with cerebral palsy.

Method: Data were gathered throughout a multisite, randomized, counterbalanced AB crossover 16-week clinical trial, wherein all participants used device A (EM) and device B (mROC) for 8-weeks each. Semistructured parent interviews were conducted at baseline (T0), post-intervention period 1 (T1), and post-intervention period 2 (T2). The Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count program was used to objectively analyze the transcribed interviews.

Results: Twenty-four child-parent dyads participated in the study. Parental perceptions were related to children's gross motor abilities, cognitive development scores, and device use order (EM-mROC or mROC-EM).

Conclusions: Parents were positive about a potential means of helping their children. While most preferred the EM, opinions were contingent on the PM device, device use order, and child-centered factors.

量化家长对其子女使用电动代步设备的感受。

目的：量化并探讨家长对脑瘫幼儿使用迷你探险者（EM）和改装乘骑车（mROC）的体验感受：在一项为期 16 周的多地点、随机、平衡 AB 交叉临床试验中，所有参与者均使用了 A 设备（EM）和 B 设备（mROC）各 8 周，并收集了相关数据。在基线期（T0）、干预后第一期（T1）和干预后第二期（T2）进行了结构化家长访谈。使用语言调查和字数统计程序对转录的访谈进行客观分析：共有 24 个儿童-家长二人组参与了研究。家长的看法与儿童的粗大运动能力、认知发展得分和设备使用顺序（EM-mROC 或 mROC-EM）有关：结论：家长对帮助孩子的潜在方法持积极态度。结论：家长们对这一潜在的帮助孩子的方法持肯定态度，虽然大多数家长更喜欢EM，但他们的意见与PM设备、设备使用顺序和以儿童为中心的因素有关。

期刊介绍： Pediatric Physical Therapy is an indexed international journal, that publishes peer reviewed research related to the practice of physical therapy for children with movement disorders. The editorial board is comprised of an international panel of researchers and clinical scholars that oversees a rigorous peer review process. The journal serves as the official journal for the pediatric physical therapy professional organizations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States. The journal includes articles that support evidenced based practice of physical therapy for children with neuromuscular, musculoskeletal, cardiorespiratory and developmental conditions that lead to disorders of movement, and research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of pediatric physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics and pediatric exercise science to neurodevelopmental science. To these ends the journal publishes original research articles, systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions that further the science of physical therapy, clinical guidelines and case reports that describe unusual conditions or cutting edge interventions with sound rationale. The journal adheres to the ethical standards of theInternational Committee of Medical Journal Editors.
