ABSTRACT

For the relatively few assistive technology device (ATD) outcomes related tools available to clinicians, most are completed using paper/pencil which requires substantial effort entering data into a central database for analysis. Direct entry web-based interfaces and/or portable devices (PDA’s, bar-coders, digital pens, tablets, etc) can facilitate efficient data collection by porting data (synchronously or asynchronously) into a main data collection/repository site. Presentation will discuss via video clips various outcome data collection tools developed and beta-tested by the Consortium for Assistive Technology Outcomes Research (CATOR), as well as demonstration of strategies and tools for the management and reporting of clinical outcome data results.
