Utilizing research in wheelchair and seating selection and configuration for children with injury/dysfunction of the spinal cord.
OBJECTIVE: To determine how research regarding medicare power wheelchairs and medical scooters and seating selection and configuration could be applied to the pediatric population with spinal cord injury (SCI) and dysfunction. METHODS: Extensive literature reviews were completed on (a) powered mobility options and age-appropriateness for training; (b) manual wheelchair configuration, pushrim biomechanics, and propulsion ergonomics; and (c) cushion selection and use of pressure-mapping devices. The findings in the literature review then were compared with clinical observations from Shriners Hospitals for Children, Philadelphia’s Seating and Wheelchair Clinic. RESULTS/DISCUSSION: A significant amount of research is published on propulsion ergonomics and pushrim biomechanics in adults with SCI. However, this literature review noted that there was limited research available on cushion selection and power mobility configuration. Many of the conclusions drawn from these publications are applied to pediatric patients and used during the decision-making process of wheelchair and cushion selection. However, it is critical to tailor the assessment to the pediatric population to meet their medical and functional needs. CONCLUSION: Although some of the findings can be correlated to the pediatric population, there is a lack of research on wheelchair and seating selection and configuration as it specifically relates to the young person with SCI and dysfunction. Future studies need to be completed.
