Supportive mobility devices across the lifespan in Cerebral Palsy: a modified Delphi study to establish stakeholder research priorities.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to co-develop research priorities and identify meaningful research questions with a diverse group of stakeholders representing the CP community for implementation in subsequent research activities. The overarching aim of this research was to 1) Understand the mobility experiences, supported mobility device (SMD) use, and desired participation outcomes of people with cerebral palsy (CP) across the lifespan; and 2) Describe how perspectives of rehabilitation care and professional resources may influence mobility decision-making processes and outcomes.

Materials And Methods: A three-round modified Delphi consensus study was conducted with a stakeholder advisory panel consisting of three adults with CP, two parents of children with CP, and four SMD providers.
