ABSTRACT
Introducción: Vivir con parálisis cerebral tiene consecuencias en la participación social. Las tecnologías utilizadas para generar independencia se limitan a resultados en variables biológicas y fisiológicas. El objetivo es sintetizar la evidencia en intervenciones con tecnologías de asistencia que incluyan sistemas de retroalimentación, con el fin de conocer los desenlaces en la participación social en niños con parálisis cerebral. Metodología: Se tomaron 5 bases de datos de rehabilitación y se obtuvieron 683 artículos, de los cuales se incluyeron 9. Resultados: Los estudios evaluaron la participación social con diversos instrumentos; la mayoría sugieren efectos positivos en actividades como caminar, escribir y jugar, favoreciendo la interacción social en el entorno, utilizando tecnologías como lápices electrónicos, switches, exoesqueletos, entre otros.Conclusión: Debido a la baja calidad metodológica de los estudios, no se establecen conclusiones sólidas. Sin embargo, la evidencia propone que las tecnologías de asistencia con retroalimentación tienen un impacto positivo en los componentes de la participación social.(AU)
Introduction: Living with cerebral palsy has consequences such as social interaction. Assistive technologies used for improving independence only focuses on biological and physiological variables. The main objective in this review is to synthesize the evidence on interventions with assistive technologies, including feedback systems, with the aim of discovering outcomes of social participation in children with cerebral palsy. Methodology: There were 5 databases from rehabilitation which showed 683 articles in which only 9 were included. Results: The studies assessed social participation with several instruments. The majority suggested positive effects in activities such as: walking, writing, playing, and social interaction. There were tools such as electronic pencils, switches, and exoskeletons present. Conclusion: Due to the poor quality of the methodologies of these studies, the search does not establish solid conclusions. However, the evidence suggests that assistive technologies with feedback have a positive impact on aspects of social participation.(AU)
