KEY WORDS REGARDING TILT AND RECLINE OF
STATIC COMFORT WHEELCHAIRS, AND COMMON
FEATURES OF DYNAMIC WHEELCHAIRS
Tilt and recline are the basic benefits of a comfort
wheelchair. It allows for varying seating positions
during the time in the wheelchair.
We have reviewed the clinical eviden-ces regarding
tilt and recline, and found there are several studies
or best practice guidelines suggesting that the tilt
and recline sequence is important to reduce shear
and sliding:
FIRST TILT THEN RECLINE AFTERWARDS.
When bringing the client upright again, the
sequence should be reduce recline first then
reduce tilt. It would seem that the most
shear would be induced when going upright
from a recline and tilted position.
