    OMG - Now I know why so many people in the U.S. have such ill fitting inappropriate wheelchairs. Especially paraplegics !! I can't believe you said add 1-2 inches to the width measurement. Totally inappropriate as it leaves people swimming in their chair. As for the back height, you would only ever have the back that high if the person had a very high lesion. Unnecessarily high backs lead not only to bad posture and lessening of any available core, but hinder the users ability to function at their best in the chair. I realize this was 7 years ago, and I sincerely hope a lot of this has been revised. Speaking from 46 years of lived experience.

      Bonjour ❤
      Je me suis senti obligé pour les handicapés des membres inférieurs de trouver une des options de mobilités moins chères.

    You cannot levee that much room besides the hip that will make the pushing harder. And the foot rests cannot be that much of the angle, it won’t be comfortable for a long time sitting

    Sorry, but the person you are measuring is quite obviously completely able-bodied. You got them lying on their back with their legs in the air, then sitting on the side of a bench. Blimey, if I was that dexterous I wouldn't need the wheelchair in the first place

    • @elizabethann5308
      @elizabethann5308 5 лет назад +7

      People need wheelchairs for all different reasons. Just because she can lay on her back and lift her legs does not prove that she is healthy or does not need a wheelchair.

    • @Penn1969

      @@elizabethann5308 Oh yes, I agree. But my point is this is certainly not a very good way of demonstrating how to measure someone for a wheelchair. People who need to be measure for wheelchairs are more than likely going to be using them a lot. If you need a wheelchair then you are not going to be able to be as dexterous as this young lady in the video
      . If you're going to demonstrate how to peel a potato then you have someone standing in their kitchen, not doing it whilst trying to abseil down a cliff at the same time.

    "Popliteal fossa" ? "Axella" ? "Acromion process" ? "Olecranon process" ? While impressed with your mastery of Latin, I would have found plain old English or at least a translation, more helpful. No wonder your cat is crawling up the wall! Thanks, I sort of have the idea...
