Seat height in handrim wheelchair propulsion.
To study the effect of seat height on the cardiorespiratory system and kinematics in handrim wheelchair ambulation, nine non-wheelchair users participated in a wheelchair exercise experiment on a motor-driven treadmill. The subjects conducted five progressive exercise tests. After an initial try-out test, four tests were performed at different standardized seat heights of 100, 120, 140, and 160...
متن کاملWrist motion in handrim wheelchair propulsion.
Prevalence rates of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in the wheelchair user population are high. One of the possible causes of CTS in this population is the movement pattern of the wrist during handrim wheelchair propulsion, which could include large wrist joint angles and wrist/finger flexor activity. Combined with the repetitive character of the movement, this could, in time, be detrimental to th...

متن کاملIs Synchronous Handcycling Less Straining than Handrim Wheelchair Propulsion?
INTRODUCTION The upper extremities especially the shoulders are at serious risk for overuse in handrim wheelchair users. It has been shown that upper extremity complaints frequently occur within the wheelchair user population [1]. However, physical activity and an active lifestyle are important to maintain general fitness and to prevent long term health problems. Because handrim wheelchair prop...
متن کاملAnaerobic power output and propulsion technique in spinal cord injured subjects during wheelchair ergometry.
In order to investigate the influence of the level of the spinal cord injury (SCI) on anaerobic or short-term power production and propulsion technique, 23 male SCI subjects performed a 30-second sprint test on a stationary wheelchair ergometer. Kinematic parameters were studied both inter- and intra-individually. Subjects with a cervical lesion showed a lower mean power output (21.5 Watt, one-...
