Fatigue testing of selected suspension manual wheelchairs using ANSI/RESNA standards  Andrew M. Kwarciak, MS, Rory A. Cooper, PhD, William A. Ammer, BS, Shirley G. Fitzgerald, PhD, Michael L. Boninger, MD, Rosemarie Cooper, MPT, APT  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 86, Issue 1, Pages 123-129 (January 2005) DOI: 10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038

Fig 1 Three suspension manual wheelchairs used in this study: (A) Invacare A-6S, (B) Permobil Colours Boing, and (C) Sunrise Medical Quickie XTR. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 2 Example of the caster failures common to all Colours Boing models. This picture shows the failure of the right caster of Boing 3 on the initial DDT. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 3 Fracture of the right telescoping tube of the Invacare A-6S 1. The A-6S 3 experienced a similar failure of its right telescoping tube. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 4 Fracture of the left seat section of the frame on the Invacare A-6S 2. This same type of failure occurred on the Quickie XTR 2. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 5 Fracture of the seat shock frame support on the Quickie XTR 1. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 6 Fracture of the right caster mount of the Quickie XTR 3. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)

Fig 7 Mean value (equivalent cycles per dollar) of each wheelchair. White bars represent the suspension wheelchairs; black bars represent the ultra-lightweight wheelchairs; gray bars represent the lightweight wheelchairs. The last 3 bars represent the average values for each wheelchair type.9,11. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2005 86, 123-129DOI: (10.1016/j.apmr.2003.11.038)
