Seating and mobility considerations for people with spinal cord injury.
For people with spinal cord injuries, the selection of a wheelchair and seating system involves many factors. This clinical perspective describes a model that includes consideration of the person, the wheelchair, the immediate environment between the person and the wheelchair, the intermediate environment of the home and work, and the community environment. The seated posture is examined biomec...
متن کاملEffectiveness of adaptive seating on sitting posture and postural control in children with cerebral palsy.
PURPOSE We reviewed research on the effect of adaptive seating on sitting posture/postural control in children with cerebral palsy. Second, we examined whether changes in postural control related to changes in other aspects of functioning. METHODS Electronic database/hand searches were undertaken to locate studies published in English. Reviewers screened studies for inclusion criteria, extrac...
متن کاملLung mechanics in individuals with spinal cord injury: effects of injury level and posture.
Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) exhibit reduced lung volumes and flow rates as a result of respiratory muscle weakness. These features have not, however, been investigated in relation to the combined effects of injury level and posture. Changes in forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1)), FEV(1)/FVC, forced expiratory flow at 50% vital capacity (FEF(50)), ...
متن کاملEffects of conventional and alternating cushion weight-shifting in persons with spinal cord injury.
A repeated-measures study of 13 adult full-time wheelchair users with spinal cord injury (SCI) was carried out to determine whether alternating-pressure air cushion (APAC) use compared with independent pressure relief (IPR) provides reliable, effective pressure relief for individuals with SCI. Bilateral mean ischial interface pressure (IP), transcutaneous oxygen tension (TcPO2), and unilateral ...
متن کاملSpinal cord injury and time to instability in seated posture.
OBJECTIVE To investigate seated postural control in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) compared with age-matched controls. DESIGN Cohort. SETTING University research laboratory. PARTICIPANTS Adults (N=36; mean age ± SD, 22.5 ± 3.2y): 7 persons with high SCI (HI group; injury level greater than T10), 11 persons with low SCI (LI group; injury level between T10 and L4), and 18 persons wit...
