D3a. Prescription Guidelines for Specialized Wheelchair Technologies
Project Director: Chris Maurer, PT, ATP, Shepherd Center
Co-Investigators: Stephen Sprigle, PhD, PT
Timeframe: Years 4 (12 months)
Specific Aims:
Findings from Project R3a. Effects of Specialized Wheelchair Technology on Participation and Activity will be analyzed and synthesized
to produce quantitative and qualitative relationships and guidelines that can help identify guidelines for use of standing wheelchairs,
tilt-in-space systems and power assist wheelchairs. This effort represents one part of a comprehensive plan of dissemination and
training designed to improve wheelchair seating interventions (please see Section 4, Training Activities and Section 5, Dissemination
Activities).
