The overall objective of this fully powered clinical trial is to investigate if using a solid backrest on a manual wheelchair (MWC) will improve postural alignment, function and wheelchair mobility, as compared with an upholstery backrest, and to explore the impact of overall back height, contour, and seat gap when using a solid backrest in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).A teljes eredeti leírásKevesebb
Wheelchair Backs That Support the Spinal Curves: Assessing Postural and Functional Changes
The overall objective of this fully powered clinical trial is to investigate if using a solid backrest on a manual wheelchair (MWC) will improve postural alignment, function and wheelchair mobility, as compared with an upholstery backrest, and to explore the impact of overall back height, contour, and seat gap when using a solid backrest in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Bevonási feltételek: Full time manual wheelchair users; Motor complete SCI from C6-T4; Age 18-70 at time of testing; Time since injury > 3 month at time of testing.
Kizáró feltételek: Current pressure ulcer at time of testing; Cognitive deficits or visual impairment that would impair ability to give informed consent or to follow simple instructions during testing; Weight >250 pounds; Significant shoulder pain that precludes independent mobility at time of testing; Insufficient range of motion to achieve neutral pelvis and spine at time of testing; Orthopedic restrictions requiring a brace that would impact functional outcome measures; Shoulder flexion range of motion <120 degrees at time of testing; PSIS-to-Inferior Angle of scapula measurement less than 8 inches or greater than 16 inches; Children, pregnant women and prisoners will not participate in this study.
