#7475 Optimizing Wheelchair Prescription & Postural Health: Evidence, Strategies, and Clinical Practice
 
 
This two-hour interactive session will guide clinicians through the principles and evidence behind wheelchair prescription and posture management. Beginning with a review of core literature and pre-work, we will clarify key concepts, then move into practical assessment strategies such as the mat exam, differential prescription decisions between modular and custom seating, and ways to anticipate and prevent common postural complications. Case studies will bridge theory and practice, and the course will conclude with reflection, discussion, and actionable take-home strategies to support long-term postural health in wheelchair users. Course instruction method includes: Lecture, case studies, question/answers.
