Types of tires
①The advantage of solid tires is that when pushing the wheelchair on the carpet, it is easier to move around, and the maintenance is simple, and it is not easy to be damaged; the disadvantage is that there is a large vibration when pushing on the uneven road. ② The advantage of pneumatic tires is that they have a shock-absorbing effect on uneven roads, the user can sit comfortably, and it is easier to walk on the sidewalk. Other auxiliary parts of wheelchair are designed to meet the needs of special patients, such as increasing the friction surface of the handle, installing arm rests on the armrest, or a wheelchair table that is convenient for patients to eat and write. Selection precautions For patients with high spinal cord injury (above neck 5), because the hands cannot move, it is necessary to choose a wheelchair with a high backrest and a chest strap. This wheelchair is driven by family members, and the patient cannot control the wheelchair by himself. Therefore, the wheelchair brake must be reliable and strong to prevent danger from sliding, slipping, etc. when no one is around. In addition, the armrests should be wide, soft, and able to fix the hands, equipped with anti-pressure ulcer pads, and the foot pedals should be long enough to prevent the feet from being bruised. Patients with cervical 6-thoracic 1 spinal cord injury can operate wheelchairs by themselves, and should be equipped with good quality and lighter wheelchairs when possible. When the hands are drooping, they should be on a vertical line with the axis of the big wheel, so that there is friction when driving, and half-finger gloves should be used to prevent the hands from being worn. The front wheel must be flexible, and the foot pedal must be long enough. In addition, the foot pedal should be able to be separated to both sides, so that it is more convenient to move to the side of the bed with the skateboard. If the patient is frail, elderly or overweight and it is difficult to drive the wheelchair with both hands, an electric wheelchair can also be provided.
