Using a mobile health application (i.e., app) to empower primary caregivers of young children with developmental disorders in low- and middle-income countries is opening up new avenues for early childhood intervention. Thirteen caregivers and 10 speech–language pathologists participated in 3 focus groups to explore their perspectives about the potential benefits and suitability of a mobile health app as part of intervention, its features, the likelihood of using and recommending it, as well as potential pitfalls to be avoided. Both participant groups were generally positive, although there was little overlap between their responses. Caregivers generally focused on increased knowledge and skills (of all family members), as well as on empowerment and reduced costs. Speech–language pathologists, on the other hand, focused on how current service delivery would be enriched by increasing the dosage of therapy and enhancing parental cooperation. They also expected that the reach of service delivery would be expanded as more children and caregivers could potentially benefit. Although technology (i.e., mobile apps) could open up new possibilities for service delivery in this population, the perspectives of all stakeholder groups should be considered to ensure successful adoption of such technologies.

支持南非发育障碍儿童的早期沟通技巧

在低收入和中等收入国家,使用移动健康应用程序(即应用程序)为患有发育障碍的幼儿的主要照顾者赋权,为幼儿干预开辟了新途径。13 名护理人员和 10 名语言病理学家参加了 3 个焦点小组,以探讨他们对作为干预一部分的移动健康应用程序的潜在益处和适用性、其功能、使用和推荐它的可能性以及潜在缺陷的看法被避免。两个参与者组总体上都是积极的,尽管他们的反应之间几乎没有重叠。看护者通常关注增加(所有家庭成员的)知识和技能,以及赋权和降低成本。另一方面,语言病理学家 重点关注如何通过增加治疗剂量和加强父母合作来丰富当前的服务提供。他们还预计,随着更多儿童和护理人员可能受益,服务范围将扩大。尽管技术(即移动应用程序)可以为这一人群的服务提供开辟新的可能性,但应考虑所有利益相关者群体的观点,以确保成功采用此类技术。
