In the world, 75 million people require a wheelchair (W/C) but only between 5% and 15% of them have one. The WHO defines a W/C as adequate if it meets the needs of the user and their environment, offers appropriate seating and postural support and if it is safe and durable.
The primary objective is to describe the seating, postural support and safety of W/Cs users who attend the I.Re.P kinesiology service. The secondary objective is to learn about their satisfaction with their W/Cs and related services.
The subjects were W/C users who attend the I.Re.P. kinesiology service. The W/Cs were evaluated following the WHO guidelines, and the satisfaction using the QUEST 2.0 questionnaire.
Within 30 patients, 21 were men aged around 48.17 years. Only 1 subject had all the correct measures of safety, seating and posture adjustment. 6 had all the correct measures for an adequate seating and 5 had all the safety measures. Regarding satisfaction, high scores have been found with respect to W/C and low scores with respect to related services. All in all, the total satisfaction got mostly medium and high scores.
Only 1 subject out of the 30 evaluated complied with all the seating, postural adjustment and safety requirements necessary to consider an adequate W/C. Most subjects reported being more satisfied with their W/C than with the related services.
全球有7500万人需要轮椅，但其中只有5%至15%的人拥有轮椅。世界卫生组织将符合使用者及其环境需求、提供适当座位和姿势支撑且安全耐用的轮椅定义为合适的轮椅。
主要目的是描述在I.Re.P运动机能学服务中心接受治疗的轮椅使用者的座位、姿势支撑和安全性。次要目的是了解他们对轮椅及相关服务的满意度。
研究对象为在I.Re.P运动机能学服务中心接受治疗的轮椅使用者。按照世界卫生组织的指导方针评估轮椅，并使用QUEST 2.0问卷评估满意度。
在30名患者中，21名是年龄约48.17岁的男性。只有1名受试者在安全、座位和姿势调整方面的所有测量均正确。6名受试者在合适座位的所有测量方面正确，5名受试者在所有安全测量方面正确。关于满意度，对轮椅的评分较高，而对相关服务的评分较低。总体而言，总体满意度大多为中高分。
在接受评估的30名受试者中，只有1名符合将轮椅视为合适轮椅所需的所有座位、姿势调整和安全要求。大多数受试者报告称，他们对轮椅的满意度高于对相关服务的满意度。
