Interview with Parents of Children Participating in a Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) Intervention

We would like to hear about your/your child’s experience with FES (functional electrical stimulation).

1. What went well?

2. What was challenging?

3. Did you notice changes in your child’s abilities or play habits over the FES trial? If yes, please describe.

4. What was your/your child’s reaction to using FES? Did your/their reaction change over the length of the trial?

5. What were your goals for participation? Do you think you reached those goals?

6. If you were to discuss this trial with a parent/child who was thinking about participating, what would you tell them about using FES?

7. Do you have suggestions for things we could do differently, if we were to offer this program again with another child?
