目的：描述并比较幼儿使用四种早期动力移动设备的情况，并检查可能影响动力移动使用和父母设备偏好的儿童和环境因素之间的关联。设计：横断面观察研究。方法：动力移动日在一个60-90分钟的游戏会话中介绍了四种设备：Wizzybug，Bugzi，Tiger Cub和一辆开关适应的骑玩具车。结果：一个方便的样本74名儿童，年龄9-68个月（平均值：32.45，SD：14.08）与行动不便，他们的父母参加。儿童有一系列的运动，姿势和沟通概况，脑瘫是最常见的条件（n = 55; 73.33%）。学习动力活动使用阶段的评估范围为1 - 6;平均值：2.34;中位数：2。对于尝试所有四种设备的儿童（n = 51），Friedman检验（chi（2）：8.27，p = 0.04）表明，不同设备的学习动力移动使用阶段评估不同。在73名确定设备偏好的父母中，43名（59%）选择了Wizzybug。回归分析表明，访问方法和通信功能可能会影响儿童的电源移动性使用，而年龄，访问和姿势支持的要求可能会影响家长devicechoice.Discussion：父母的印象，早期电源移动设备可能会受到许多因素的影响，但受儿童的表现。
Objectives: Describe and compare young children's use of four early power mobility devices and examine associations between child and environmental factors that may influence power mobility use and parent device preference.Design: Cross-sectional observational study.Methods: Power Mobility Days introduced four devices: Wizzybug, Bugzi, Tiger Cub, and a switch-adapted ride-on toy car in a single 60-90 min, play-based session.Results: A convenience sample of 74 children, aged 9-68 months (mean: 32.45, SD: 14.08) with mobility limitations, and their parents participated. Children had a range of motor, postural and communication profiles, with cerebral palsy being the most common condition (n = 55; 73.33%). Assessment of Learning Powered mobility use phase achieved ranged from I to 6; mean: 2.34; median: 2. For children who tried all four devices (n = 51), Friedman test (chi(2) : 8.27, p = 0.04) suggests Assessment of Learning Powered mobility use phase differs across devices. Of 73 parents who identified a device preference, 43 (59%) chose Wizzybug. Regression analyses suggest that access method and communication function may influence children's power mobility use, while age, access and postural support requirements may influence parent device choice.Discussion: Parent impressions of an early power mobility device may be influenced by many factors, yet be less influenced by child performance.
