Summary

The main objective is to quantify energy expenditure when using the SmartDrive system during manual wheelchair propulsion in external conditions (slope, straight line). For this two comparisons are performed: Comparison of energy expenditure with and without the use of a system SmartDrive 6 minute propulsion test. Comparison the risk of musculoskeletal disorders of the wrist during a 6 minute propulsion test.

Detailed description

Prospective study mono-centric, controlled, randomized cross over. Randomization of the equipment (without and with SmartDrive). 22 SCI manual wheelchair users. 22 caregivers (healthy subjects)
