“…Surprisingly, no study has focused on the use of an iPad, the Crdl (Cradle) (https://www.crdl.com/nl/home-nl/), or the Tovertafel (https://www.tover.care/nl/), even though there are indications that healthcare organisations use these technologies. Some studies have focused on the use of these technologies in different groups of participants, such as people with dementia (Anderiesen, 2017; Bruil et al, 2018; Teunissen et al, 2017). However, it is difficult to decipher which technological interventions are used by healthcare organisations for people with pervasive support needs and what the objectives and outcomes of these interventions are, given the lack of research.…”

BackgroundAlthough particular technologies can enhance the quality of life (QoL) of people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (we use the term pervasive support needs), their objectives and outcomes are understudied. A systematic literature review was therefore conducted to explore this topic.MethodA search of four databases yielded 64 studies. Data were extracted on their general characteristics, methods and sample characteristics as well as the technology types, QoL domains and application within ecological systems. A narrative synthesis was subsequently developed.ResultsMost of the studies applied assistive technology (AT) and focused on personal development and self‐determination on an individual level.ConclusionsTechnology can enhance the QoL of people with pervasive support needs. There are indications that although MT and UD‐based technology are used in practice, few studies have examined these technologies. Therefore, there is a knowledge gap regarding the kinds of technology that are used in practice.
