NCT ID: NCT06403384 Completed - Clinical trials for Athletic Performance

Vibration Therapy in Wheelchair Basketball Players

Start date: August 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

No study was found that investigated the effect of vibration therapy (VT) on recovery from exercise in WCB players. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate the effects of wearable local vibration device on muscle soreness and athletic performance during recovery from exercise in the elbow area in WCB players.

NCT ID: NCT04936087 Completed - Wheelchair Users Clinical Trials

Effects of the WHO 8-step Wheelchair Service Delivery Process on Wheelchair Users in El Salvador: a Cohort Study

WUV
Start date: January 8, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study was to test the hypotheses that wheelchair-related health, wheelchair skills, wheelchair use, poverty probability, and quality of life would improve; and that the number of wheelchair repairs required, adverse events, caregiver burden and the level of assistance provided would decrease after the delivery of manual wheelchairs following the World Health Organization (WHO) 8-step service-delivery process. This was a longitudinal, within-subject study design including 247 manual wheelchair users in El Salvador. The intervention consisted of the WHO 8-step process as well as maintenance reminders. Outcome assessments on wheelchair-related health, wheelchair skills, wheelchair repairs required, adverse events, caregiver burden and the level of assistance, poverty probability, and quality of life were performed via structured interviews at the initial assessment, at wheelchair delivery, and at 3- and 6-month follow-up. Wheelchair use was measured with dataloggers at assessment, delivery and 3-month follow-up.

NCT ID: NCT00283296 Completed - Wheelchair Users Clinical Trials

Development of a Collapsible Folding Manual Wheelchair

Start date: January 2004
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the Endeavor, a compact, forward-folding, ultralight manual wheelchair that incorporates small "swing-down" wheels for navigation in confined areas. This enables access to narrow environments such as those encountered in offices, restrooms, and transportation settings. When using the small access wheels, the wheelchair also fits down the aisle of airplanes and collapses to be stowed in the overhead compartment. It is anticipated that the Endeavor will maximize mobility; increase access to confined areas; and ease the demands of travel for people with disabilities.

NCT ID: NCT00281463 Completed - Wheelchair Users Clinical Trials

Impact of Pushrim Activated Power Assist Wheelchairs on Mobility Among People With Tetraplegia

Start date: November 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this three phase study is to evaluate a Pushrim Activated Power Assist Wheelchair (PAPAW). Phase I will examine whether the steady-state, metabolic energy efficiency for propelling a manual wheelchair with and without the device will be significantly different. In Phase II, wheelchair users will evaluate the PAPAW over activities of daily living course to determine its usability and acceptability and to identify areas for future development. Finally, in phase III, comparison of activities of daily living in the community will be made between the subjects when using their personal wheelchair and a PAPAW.

NCT ID: NCT00232609 Completed - Wheelchair Users Clinical Trials

Development of the GameCycle Exercise System: Phase II

Start date: August 2005
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this research project is to further develop and test the effectiveness of a novel exercise system for wheelchair users, the Game Cycle.
