J BIOMED ENG , 1981, vol. 3, n° 4, p. 267-274 Doc n°: 28694 Localisation : Specimen Descripteurs : KF6 - FAUTEUIL ROULANT, DF14 - POSITION ASSISE - EQUILIBRATION The chairbound, handicapped person often requires a cushion to distribute the supportive forces over the largest area possible in order to reduce the risk of the development of a pressure sore. The paraplegic, or someone with a pelvic obliquity, may require a specially contoured cushion to redistribute seating pressures. The severely handicapped person may require padded inserts in his wheelchair or an intimately moulded seat which helps to control some spasms as well as to provide a functional, comfortable posture.
