Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Engineering
  • Assistive Technology
  • 3D Printing in Healthcare

Background:

  • Assistive devices improve functional abilities for individuals with disabilities.
  • 3D printing enables the creation of customized, individualized assistive devices (IADs).
  • A REHAB-LAB model facilitates IAD provision through collaboration between technical experts and occupational therapists.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a REHAB-LAB logic model for individualized assistive device (IAD) provision.
  • To assess the fidelity and desirability of the developed REHAB-LAB logic model.
  • To explore characteristics of initiatives producing IADs within a rehabilitation setting.

Main Methods:

  • A pragmatic, multimethod approach was employed in two phases: logic model development and exploration of its fidelity and desirability.
  • Stakeholder involvement was integral throughout the logic model development process.
  • The study involved occupational therapists, doctors, engineers, managers, and technical referents, with users central to IAD production.

Main Results:

  • The REHAB-LAB logic model outlines necessary resources (equipment, space, human) and expected deliverables (activities, outputs) for IAD provision.
  • The model emphasizes interdisciplinarity and user-centered design in IAD production.
  • Results confirmed the fidelity and desirability of the REHAB-LAB logic model for practical implementation.

Conclusions:

  • The REHAB-LAB logic model serves as a valuable reference for healthcare organizations implementing IAD provision.
  • This model highlights the benefits of user involvement and transdisciplinary practices in IAD creation.
  • The study underscores the potential of IAD provision through the REHAB-LAB framework to enhance rehabilitation outcomes.
