Breizh Fabribus mobile workshop for on-site personalized assistive devices

Évaluation d'Impact de l'Intervention du Breizh Fabribus Pour la création ou l'Adaptation d'Aide Technique personnalisée (BFB-IMPACT)

Fondation Ildys · NCT07314099

This project tests whether on-site 3D‑printed and laser‑cut devices made by the Breizh Fabribus mobile workshop help people with disabilities in Finistère perform targeted daily activities better within three months.

What this trial studies

BFB-IMPACT is a retrospective, mixed-methods evaluation of a mobile fabrication service that creates or adapts assistive devices using 3D printing and laser cutting. All individuals who received at least one device from Breizh Fabribus between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2025 are identified from routine service records, contacted for consent, and have baseline information extracted from initial request forms. Immediate device satisfaction is recorded with the CSQ-8 at delivery and a standardized follow-up at three months collects device use, a five-point rating of change in the targeted activity, and free-text comments, with an optional 12-month follow-up. Data collection occurs October 2025–May 2026 with planned analysis in June 2026.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: People of any age in Finistère who received at least one assistive device from Breizh Fabribus between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2025 and consent to use of their data are eligible.

Not a fit: Individuals who were only solicited but did not receive a device, those who object to use of their data, or people whose needs require complex institutional equipment rather than small personalized devices are unlikely to benefit.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could provide faster, lower‑cost, better‑fitting assistive devices that increase independence and user satisfaction.

How similar studies have performed: Previous pilot and small-scale programs using 3D-printed personalized assistive devices report improved fit, satisfaction, and use, though mobile on-site delivery models like Breizh Fabribus are less studied at scale.
