Study Summary
We propose to test an evidence-based wheelchair skills training program to optimize wheelchair safety and performance in veterans with SCI. The proposed training program incorporates emerging evidence on wheelchair biomechanics and motor-skills learning, and addresses recommendations in a new clinical practice guideline. Given the difficulty in translating wheelchair skills learned in a therapy clinic with "real world" problems in the home and community post-discharge, we are proposing to conduct the wheelchair skills training in and around the veteran's home. The immediate goal is to enhance ability, performance time, safety, community participation, and quality of life, while minimizing physical strain. The ultimate goal is to reduce morbidity/mortality associated with wheelchair use and promote successful aging with a disability.
Primary Outcome
The WST is a standardized evaluation method that permits a set of representative wheelchair skills to be objectively, simply and inexpensively documented. The WST is an instrument for the objective evaluation of wheelchair skills. The WST consists of a series of commonly used wheelchair skills spanning the spectrum from those as basic as applying brakes to those as difficult as climbing curbs and performing wheelies. The WSC encompasses 57 skills (in Version 4.1) which result in a total score. T
