NCT05006859
Brief Summary:
This database will describe sitting postural control in wheelchair, as well as PW pain, and pressure ulcers associated with sitting, in patients with neuromuscular disease (NMD).
Detailed Description:
Neuromuscular diseases are genetic diseases of the muscle or its innervation (nerve connection) causing respiratory, cardiac and especially motor difficulties which may require use of wheelchair. However there is no standardized positioning protocol, so it seems interesting to us to study wheelchair positioning in neuromuscular diseases).
The purpose of this study is to describe sitting posture in the wheelchair in patients with neuromuscular disease, pain associated with using the wheelchair, but also to assess the effectiveness of the recommended equipment making the same evaluations in follow-up consultation (a few months after receipt of the prescribed TAP).
Posture is assessed by the tool: Measurement of Postural Control in Seated Postural Control Measure for Adults 2.0 (SPCMA 2.0), which is a validated tool.
Pain is assessed by a Simple Verbal Scale or by a Visual Analog Scale. This database could allow providing guidelines of good practice, for wheelchair positioning for patients with neuromuscular disease.
