Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Wheelchair Mobility and Speed
This group will participate in activity-based measures employed in routine occupational and physical therapy practice to assess participants' wheelchair speed, maneuverability, and endurance. These measures include: the Life Space Assessment Scale, 6-Minute Push Test, Forward Push Test, Wheelchair Slalom Test, Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique, and PART-O.
Life Space Assessment Scale
This nine question survey asks participants where they have gone in the last week, frequency of those visits, and how independently they went there.
6-Minute Push Test
The 6 Minute Push Test is a measure of endurance, and requires that the participant wheel themselves around two pylons that are located 15 meters apart for 6 minutes.
Forward Push Test
This measure of wheelchair propulsion speed asks patients to propel themselves as fast as they can over 20 meters. This task is performed twice, and the average time is used for the score.
Wheelchair Slalom Test
In this measure, participants propel themselves through an 18 meter slalom course at their maximum self-selected speed, wheeling around seven cones, separated by three, two, or one meter.
Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique
A measure of social participation in individuals with SCI.
PART-O
The PART-O is a community participation measure.
GPS Tracking
A GPS tracker will be placed on the wheelchairs of 25 individuals who consent to participate in this arm of the project. Using a GPS tracker will provide a direct measure of the community locations these participants go. The GPS location is collected every minute, and mapped to Google Maps, which would allow calculation of speed of movement.
