Assistive technologies (ATs) are designed to enhance the quality of life of people living with disabilities. The integration of these technologies with the home or work environment are often combined with a variety of processes, services, and other devices. ATs have also been imperative in addressing some of the physical limitations that are caused by motor neuron disease (MND). This disease, which impacts the neurological system in various ways, can require severe adjustments in the daily lives of people and hence ATs are able to provide critical support. This article draws from an interview with Dr. Justin Yerbury, a Professor of Neurodegenerative Disease at the University of Wollongong who has MND, supplemented by technical product literature. It explores his living experience to improve familiarity with the technology and the challenges in terms of access, use, and the uncertainties presented to people with MND.

辅助技术极大地改善了MND / ALS人群的生活质量

辅助技术(ATs)旨在提高残疾人的生活质量。这些技术与家庭或工作环境的集成通常与各种过程,服务和其他设备结合在一起。AT还必须解决由运动神经元疾病(MND)引起的某些身体限制。这种疾病以各种方式影响神经系统,可能需要对人们的日常生活进行重大调整,因此AT能够提供关键的支持。本文来自对卧龙岗大学神经退行性疾病教授贾斯汀·耶伯里(Justin Yerbury)博士的访谈,他拥有MND,并辅以技术产品文献。
