Abstract of the talk:

INTRODUCTION TO REHABILITATION FUNDAMENTALS: WHEELED MOBILITY AND SEATING

Mobility Assistive Technology (MAT) devices have the potential to provide unprecedented levels of independent living for a growing population of people with physical and sensory disabilities. MAT can vastly improve functional levels and quality of life. Several research studies highlight the fact that most people who require Mobility Assistive Technology (MAT) do not receive one and those who do receive, do so without a proper evaluation to ensure it appropriately meets their needs. This can lead to abandonment of the device and/or development of secondary health complications including pressure sores, postural deformities such as pelvic obliquity and scoliosis among many others.

Service delivery is a key component in providing appropriate MAT that meets the physical, functional and environmental needs of a user. When faced with the clinical decision of recommending an appropriate seating system, it is important to understand that Assistive Technology (AT) for seating and positioning for a person with a physical impairment can vary according to the individual’s needs and the severity of the medical diagnosis, the injury as well as physical residual recovery following a traumatic event. The seating system involves a combination and selection of appropriate seat components, includes cushion, backrest and lower extremity support, contribute to a stable support for the pelvis to enhance trunk balance and upper trunk mobility. This presentation provides an introduction to multiple areas of wheeled mobility and Seating fundamentals.

TOPICS COVERED IN BRIEF 

1. Service Delivery/Outcome Measures

2. Seating Biomechanics

3. Cushions & Backs

4. Manual Wheelchairs and Powered Mobility Devices

5.Seat Functions

6. Transportation

All are invited
