A 66-year-old female client with mild cognitive impairment consulted an occupational therapist due to difficulties with activities of daily living. The occupational therapist developed two activity assistance computer programs using ChatGPT as a resource. The client did not interact directly with ChatGPT; instead, the occupational therapist used the technology to design and implement the intervention. A computer programmed assistive technology-based occupational therapy intervention was completed for eight weeks. The occupational therapist trained the client to use these programs in the clinical setting and at home. As a result of the intervention, the client's performance and independence in daily activities improved. The results of this study emphasize that ChatGPT may help occupational therapists as a tool to design simple computer programmed assistive technology interventions without requiring additional professional input.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142512712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current paper expands the previous focus on wheelchair standing devices to all types of supported standing devices. A scoping review methodology found 42 studies examining outcomes of supported standing programs in the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health framework in five areas of body functions, seven areas of activities and participation, and one body structure. Patterns in outcomes related to standing device type, as dynamic, or mobile, standing devices contributed to independent daily activity performance and static standing devices impacted neuromuscular capacity. Studies support engaging consistently in supported standing from nine months of age, or as soon after onset of ambulatory disability as possible, to maximize benefits.

We compared heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV), and the time-series synchronization between HRV and respiration in caregivers using the robot or a normal wheelchair as control. Under both conditions, a commercial wearable device was used to simultaneously obtain electrocardiogram and respiration signals while performing care tasks, which comprised transfer from a bed to a wheelchair or to the robot, movement to a remote location, and transfer to a chair. We found that HR was significantly higher and HRV and wavelet coherence were significantly lower in the control than with Hug during at least the first 30 seconds of rest after the task (p < 0.05). This suggests that Hug could reduce the increase in HR and thereby maintain a more constant rhythm between HRV and respiration during care tasks. A post-task questionnaire also revealed that caregivers felt the physical burden of the tasks was reduced using Hug. Our results suggest that the introduction of transfer support robots can reduce the physical burden for caregivers of daily transfer assistance tasks.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142480430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The gait parameters included lower extremity joint angles, moments, and work/power, plantar pressures, spatiotemporal measures, and patient satisfaction were improved with the 3D-printed AFOs when compared to the no-AFO (i.e. barefoot, or shoe-only) conditions. 3D-printed AFOs revealed similar functional efficacy as conventional AFOs. Notably, the level of patient satisfaction regarding fitting and comfort was higher with the 3D-printed AFOs. Although the study on the effects of the 3D-printed AFOs are limited, emerging evidence indicates their effectiveness in improving gait biomechanics and functions. To further confirm their effects, rigorous randomized control studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-ups on the effects are warranted in the future.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142480429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The device also reduced patient weight-bearing, compared to sit-to-stand lifts. Biomechanical analysis was done to map the risk to the nurses and capture the patient's experience with the modified lift (NEAR-1). Thirteen subjects carried out patient transfer tasks using both the NEAR-1 and the manual transfer approach, and this comparison will provide the baseline data for future systematic reviews. From the results, NEAR-1 significantly reduced the L5-S1 compression, the mediolateral shear forces, and the anteroposterior shear forces, with the exception of the muscle activities in the lower back, the shoulder, and the biceps. Moreover, patients felt safer and more comfortable with the device.

This scoping review explores how ICT is incorporated into OT interventions and identifies knowledge gaps in the literature. Five databases were searched using a scoping review methodological framework. The included articles were peer-reviewed, written in English, focused on ICT in OT practice and include participants 65 and older. The results were summarized and reported with descriptive statistics and qualitative analysis. Twenty-three articles met the inclusion criteria. Findings include differences in participant characteristics, ICT devices, and outcome measures. Common themes identified benefits and barriers to ICT training, education, and occupational performance. Gaps in the literature include guidelines for intervention and the impact of specific health conditions on ICT performance. When incorporating ICT into OT interventions, consideration must be given to age-related deficits, perceptions of technology, and access to devices. Additional research is needed to establish evidence-based guidelines for OT interventions that incorporate ICT-mediated occupations with older adults.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142480431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nine children with mobility disabilities participated in four visits where they completed two, 15-20 minute play sessions, one in each posture, with a break between. We found that all toddlers engaged with the joystick in both postures, with individual differences in favored directions and control patterns. Participants had similar loading through their feet in both postures, but had slightly higher muscle activity in standing, especially while driving. These results demonstrate that young children with disabilities quickly engage with joystick-based powered mobility in seated and standing postures, with important individual differences that can inform future design of devices and interventions to support play and development.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142480432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research endeavors to investigate the experiences of managers overseeing AT provision during crises, using the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic as a case study. An open-ended questionnaire was distributed to health care managers (n = 18) within AT organizations in Sweden. The responses were analyzed using qualitative content analysis, and four categories derived: Embracing change and navigating new realities, Optimizing strategies due to decreased and limiting prescriptions, Unlocking access and addressing challenges in AT provision, The impact on the staff and their well-being vs effectiveness in the AT organization. The findings indicate that AT organizations have demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability in the face of reduced consultations and growing care burden. Despite these challenges, managers have gained valuable insights into developing AT provision more efficiently and sustainably, particularly in digitization. The lessons learned will be critical in ensuring AT provision remains responsive to the needs of patients and society in the future.","PeriodicalId":51568,"journal":{"name":"Assistive Technology","volume":" ","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142395178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
