Study Summary

The overall purpose of this project is to test the feasibility of a manual wheelchair propulsion program which aims to reduce the chance of development of upper limbs pain and injury.

Primary Outcome

Push angle during the push phase of propulsion is assessed with video motion capture (VMC). The VMC system consists of 14 Vero 2.2 digital cameras to detect the location of the reflective markers, specifically on the shoulder, elbow, and wrist. The 3D infrared coordinates will be recorded while participants propel their wheelchair over the ground and on a dynamic roller system. Push angle will be calculated by finding the inner product of the vectors formed by the elbow-shoulder and elbow-wrist.
