2 This article and any supplementary material should be cited as follows: Hollington J, Hillman SJ. Can static interface pressure mapping be used to rank pressure-redistributing cushions for active wheelchair users? J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(1):53–60. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192JSP Aim – Investigate potentials for differences in pressure measurements under static and dynamic conditions. Relevance – Clinical pressure measurements are almost always made under static sitting conditions, but this does not consider time-dependent properties of some cushion materials that may behave differently under dynamic conditions of self-propulsion.

Can static interface pressure mapping be used to rank pressure-redistributing cushions for active wheelchair users? J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(1):53–60. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192JSP Method Collected seat interface pressure mapping (IPM) measurements from 8 wheelchair users using 4 different seat cushions during static sitting and self-propulsion. Used mean pressure corresponding to approximate anatomical location of ischial tuberosities to rank the 4 cushions.

Can static interface pressure mapping be used to rank pressure-redistributing cushions for active wheelchair users? J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(1):53–60. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192JSP Results Dynamic data from 4 participants was judged too inconsistent to be interpreted reliably. – Demonstrates practical difficulties associated with dynamic IPM measurement when variations in individual propulsion technique cannot be controlled.

Can static interface pressure mapping be used to rank pressure-redistributing cushions for active wheelchair users? J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(1):53–60. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.10.0192JSP Conclusion Strong correlations were observed between rank orders for the remaining 4 participants. – Suggests that statistically derived IPM measurements can be used for clinical decision making when selecting cushions for self-propelling wheelchair users.
