Abstract

Physical dysfunction can contribute to the loss of ability to perform daily task activities, intervention is needed to prevent this condition. This study aimed to determine the effect of Assistive Devices on occupational performance among people with Physical Dysfunction. The research subject is five people who experienced physical dysfunction due to illness or injury in May 2022. From an occupational therapist's perspective, data is obtained through observation, client intervention, and direct implementation of assistive devices. The subject will determine the goal of intervention on activities of daily living using a subjective perspective based on occupational performance and satisfaction score. The evaluation of the intervention in this study used Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). The results of this study showed an increase in performance and satisfaction scores of 1.6 (from 5.8 to 7.3) and an increase in satisfaction scores of 2 (from 5.4 to 7.4) in activity daily living skills. Other factors can affect the success of the intervention, nevertheless the use of Assistive Devices can encourage independence in daily activities among physical dysfunctions.
