Study type | Observational |
The purpose of this research study is to examine whether computer based or virtual reality
based driving assessments are as useful as real-world power wheelchair driving tests in
measuring driving performance and whether they may be useful in helping to identify the
problems that some individuals may have with driving power wheelchairs. The specific aims
are as follows:
Specific Aim 1: To develop computer-based and VR-based wheelchair driving assessments for
both drivers and non-drivers that correspond to an accepted real-world driving assessment
(Power Mobility Road Test) and compare them to the real-world assessment and to each other.
Specific Aim 2: To develop additional features of the computer-based and VR-based
assessments that present dynamic tasks and determine whether skills on these tasks can be
delineated within the virtual environment.

Inclusion Criteria: - Subjects must be between 18 to 80 years old. - Subjects must have a diagnosis of SCI, spina bifida, syringomyelia, spinal stenosis, transverse myelitis, ALS, spinal cord disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke, polytraumatic injury, or TBI with residual motor, sensory, or cognitive impairments that impair mobility. - Subjects must use a power wheelchair or an attendant propelled manual wheelchair for all or part of their mobility. - Subjects must be able to provide informed consent. - Subjects must have very basic cognitive, visual, and motor skills to interact with an interface. Exclusion Criteria: - Subjects who have active pelvic or thigh wounds. (They may be worsened by prolonged sitting). - Subjects with a history of seizures in the last 90 days. (A computer screen task has the potential to induce seizures). - Subjects who do not pass the screening protocol. |

Primary | Composite Power Mobility Road Test (PMRT) Scores | The computer-based and the virtual environments will be modeled after and scored similarly to the real world PMRT. The PMRT contains two domains: Structured Elements/Tasks and Unstructured Skilled Driving. The first domains contain 16 tasks that include activities such as passing through standard width doorways, and turning a ninety-degree turn, turning 180 degrees. In both domains, each task is scored from 1 to 4, depending on speed and the number of collisions that occur with obstacles. A total score for the entire test is calculated out of a possible 64 points, and the final score on the test reflects the percentage of total points acquired1. A passing score is a percentage of > 95%. | Baseline in-lab testing | No |
