French version of the Mini BESTest
No formal French version of the Mini BESTest is available. This study aimed to translate and transculturally adapt the Mini BESTest to French and verify its intra- and inter-rater reliability.
Scoping review of propelling aids for manual wheelchairs.
Manual wheelchair (MWC) users face a variety of obstacles limiting their participation. Different MWC models and new add-on components intended to improve propulsion may impact users' function and participation, although there is a lack of research on this topic.
A Web-Based Physical Activity Portal for Individuals Living With a Spinal Cord Injury: Qualitative Study
The population with a spinal cord injury (SCI) largely remains inactive following discharge from rehabilitation despite evidence on the benefits of physical activity. A Web-based physical activity portal can address this need.
Cardiorespiratory demand and rate of perceived exertion during overground walking with a robotic exoskeleton in long-term manual wheelchair users with chronic spinal cord injury: A cross-sectional study.
For individuals who sustain a complete motor spinal cord injury (SCI) and rely on a wheelchair as their primary mode of locomotion, overground robotic exoskeletons represent a promising solution to stand and walk again.
Toward a meaningful definition of recovery after hip fracture: Comparing two definitions in community-dwelling older adults.
We should rethink the definition of recovery after hip fractures in research and clinical practice.
Feasibility, safety and effectiveness of a home-based self-managed high-intensity interval training program offered to long-term manual wheelchair users.
Home-based wheelchair HIIT appears feasible and safe although potential development of shoulder pain remains a concern and should be addressed with a future preventive shoulder exercise program.
Unmatched perception of speeds between overground and treadmill manual wheelchair propulsion in long-term manual wheelchair users.
Manual wheelchair (MWC) propulsion is increasingly assessed on a motorized treadmill (TM), which is often considered more ecologically valid than stationary rollers.
