Resumo: The population’s aging has been a much discussed topic, since the increase of these individuals has been growing gradually. A portion of these require some kind of aid to march, either a caregiver or Assistive Technology devices. Thus, the aim of this study was to understand the perception that the front walker elderly users have over their devices. A survey was conducted with seven individuals from the Arealva City / SP, where it was found that most of the complaints focuses on pain and noise. There was also the need for further study on the subject, despite the significant contribution to the studies in the field of Assistive Technology and Ergonomic Design.

Uma parcela destes necessita de algum tipo de auxílio para marcha, seja de um cuidador ou de dispositivos de Tecnologia Assistiva. Desta forma, o objetivo deste estudo foi compreender a percepção que os usuários idosos de andador frontal têm sobre seus dispositivos. Foi realizada uma pesquisa com sete indivíduos da cidade de Arealva/SP, onde foi constatado que a maior parte das reclamações se concentra nas dores e ruídos. Também se verificou a necessidade de um estudo mais aprofundado sobre o tema, apesar da contribuição expressiva para os estudos nas áreas da Tecnologia Assistiva e do Design Ergonômico.UA Editora2019-03-25T00:00:00Zjournal articlejournal articlejournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/etd.v0i1.1390oai:proa.ua.pt:article/1390Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; No 1 (2016); 184-189Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; Núm. 1 (2016); 184-189Revista dos encontros internacionais Ergotrip Design; n.º 1 (2016); 184-1892183-928Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/ergotripdesign/article/view/1390https://doi.org/10.34624/etd.v0i1.1390https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/ergotripdesign/article/view/1390/1153https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarques Boiani, Josieli AparecidaMedola, Fausto OrsiPaschoarelli, Luis Carlos2022-09-22T10:11:26Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/1390Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:56:46.188619Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
