Breizh Fabribus mobile workshop for on-site personalized assistive devices

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

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.
