Association between upper body joint motions and manual wheelchair propulsion efficiency in pediatrics

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the association between upper body joint motions and propulsive efficiency in pediatric manual wheelchair users. The results highlight the role of wrist motion in the optimization of the force applied to the pushrim during manual wheelchair propulsion.
