The last decade has shown unprecedented growth in novel technologies for rehabilitation. The rehabilitation field must be intimately involved in the development, adoption, implementation, and ongoing evaluation of novel technology. The purpose of this education session is to present a conceptual framework and roadmap for the selection, adoption, and implementation of novel technology in rehabilitation research and practice. The framework, developed by the Rehabilitation TIPS (Technology Implementation for Promising Solutions) work group, includes 1) a decision-making process to select appropriate technology, 2) a theoretical model that aims to facilitate technology adoption, and 3) an adoption process that highlights key differences for planning and measurement based on a technology’s stage of adoption. We will describe the overarching Rehabilitation TIPS roadmap and the underlying conceptual framework. Then we will present case examples to demonstrate how they can be applied during across multiple levels in the continuum of device development through implementation.
