Seating positioning is a crucial part of a good wheelchair seating, both for comfort and support.
The key to stability is a neutral pelvic position. This needs to be taken into account when fitting the seat positioning of a wheelchair. In a sitting position, the natural curves of the back and neck should be supported; and the shoulders, pelvis and knees should ideally be level. This does however depend on the individual needs of the user, and whether they have postural control – the ability to control their body position. The seat position also needs to sit over the wheelchair’s centre of gravity – just in front of the wheelchair’s rear wheels.
When seated for a long period of time, wheelchair users can also experience discomfort in the form of wheelchair skin conditions and pressure ulcers. Wheelchair cushions, such as Stimulite contoured cushions, provide total pressure management. Cushions combat pressure injuries with their complete approach to pressure management. Pressure, shearing and maceration – softening of the skin due to heat and moisture – are the primary causes of pressure injuries. Wheelchair cushions uniformly distribute pressure through their cellular matrix. The cells flux with movement to reduce shearing and are perforated to prevent heat build-up, and evaporate moisture.
