Résumé

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. Cross-sectional observational study. 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. 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 ( Parent impressions of an early power mobility device may be influenced by many factors, yet be less influenced by child performance.
