Variability in Wheelchair Propulsion: A New Window into an Old Problem

Variability in Wheelchair Propulsion: A New Window into an Old Problem

Manual wheelchair users(MWU) are at great risk for the development of upper extremity injury and pain. Any loss of upper limb function adversely impacts the independence and mobility of MWU. Motor behavior research suggests that fluctuations in movement(i.e. motor variability) are related to musculo...
