| Popis: | Algo is a clinical decision algorithm developed to support nonoccupational therapists in establishing assistive technology recommendations to enable physically disabled adults to perform their hygiene at home. This study aimed to explore the in-depth clinical reasoning of nonoccupational therapists using Algo to pinpoint the items leading to disagreements regarding recommendations. A multiple-case study was conducted with eight nonoccupational therapists trained to use Algo and filmed while using it with six standardized clients. Explicitation interviews were conducted for the conflicting recommendations. Identifying the key reasoning skills to develop in Algo users has led to three recommendations to enhance standardization with seniors. |
