Active mobility, active participation: a systematic review of modified ride-on car use by children with disabilities.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Modified ride-on cars (MROC) are a low-cost option to provide self-directed mobility to children with mobility limitations, in lieu of or as a precursor to other powered mobility devices.

Objectives

We appraised evidence to (1) describe and categorize MROC study characteristics, (2) synthesize existing knowledge of children's use of MROCs and (3) frame outcomes within the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework.

Methods

Articles were identified through four electronic databases: Medline, CINAHL, PsycNET, and Web of Science. We included all published, peer-reviewed studies involving MROC use. Relevant data were extracted, and articles were appraised using the American Academy of Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medi
