WHAT IT FOUND

No clinical findings are reported in this perspective on assistive technology and access to justice.

It does not change PT, OT, or SLP practice.

What this paper is

This is a perspective article about Article 13 of the UNCRPD and assistive technology in legal systems. It discusses barriers to justice and a fictional tribunal case, but it reports no study methods, participants, or outcomes, so there is nothing here to change clinical practice.

The easy way to misread this

Do not read the fictional tribunal example as evidence that assistive technology improves legal outcomes or patient care. The paper reports no study participants, methods, or results.
