Pathways to family-centered healthcare: co-designing AI solutions with families in pediatric rehabilitation.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Despite the growing interest in Artificial Intelligence (AI) for pediatric rehabilitation, family engagement in the technologies design remains limited. Understanding how AI-driven tools align with family needs, caregiving routines, and ethical concerns is crucial for their successful adoption. In this study, we actively involved nine families of children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) in an online participatory design workshop, underscoring both the feasibility and the need of integrating family's perspectives into AI development. Families enthusiastically participated, not only sharing insights but also appreciating the opportunity to contribute to shaping future technologies. Their active engagement challenges the assumption that co-design with families is complex or impractical, highlighting how structured yet flexible methodologies can make such crucial initiatives highly effective. The online format further facilitated participation, allowing families to join the discussion and ensuring a diverse range of perspectives. The workshop's key findings reveal three core priorities for families: 1. AI should adapt to daily caregiving routines rather than impose rigid structures; 2. digital tools should enhance communication and collaboration between families and clinicians, rather than replace human interaction; and 3. AI-driven systems could empower children's autonomy while maintaining parental oversight. Additionally, families raised critical concerns about data privacy, transparency, and the need to preserve empathy in AI-mediated care. Our findings reinforce the urgent need to shift toward family-centered AI design, moving beyond purely technological solutions toward ethically responsible, inclusive innovations. This research not only demonstrates the possibility and success of engaging families in co-design processes but also provides a model for future AI development that genuinely reflects the lived experiences of children and caregivers.
