“…The test was performed using a detailed version of the protocol developed for children with cerebral palsy who use wheelchairs, as described by Verschuren et al 14 Methodology of the SRiT in the current study was extensively informed by experiences from their study. As such, a short habituation protocol was completed before starting the SRiT.…”

“…14 The authors reported the SRiT to be a feasible, reproducible, and valid maximal field test in this pediatric population. In children and adolescents with OI who use wheelchairs, the SRiT also might be useful as a practical field test to assess and evaluate cardiorespiratory fitness over time; however, the SRiT has not yet been examined in this population.…”

“…Yet, the association between U/E and trunk strength as well as seated postural stability with wheelchair propulsion performance has not been evaluated (i.e., predictive validity). Moreover, manual wheelchair propulsion performance is rarely assessed during inpatient rehabilitation, even though simple and inexpensive performance-based manual wheelchair propulsion tests (MWPTs) are available [18–23]. …”

Objectives. To quantify the association between performance-based manual wheelchair propulsion tests (20 m propulsion test, slalom test, and 6 min propulsion test), trunk and upper extremity (U/E) strength, and seated reaching capability and to establish which ones of these variables best predict performance at these tests. Methods. 15 individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) performed the three wheelchair propulsion tests prior to discharge from inpatient SCI rehabilitation. Trunk and U/E strength and seated reaching capability with unilateral hand support were also measured. Bivariate correlation and multiple linear regression analyses allowed determining the best determinants and predictors, respectively. Results. The performance at the three tests was moderately or strongly correlated with anterior and lateral flexion trunk strength, anterior seated reaching distance, and the shoulder, elbow, and handgrip strength measures. Shoulder adductor strength-weakest side explained 53% of the variance on the 20-meter propulsion test-maximum velocity. Shoulder adductor strength-strongest side and forward seated reaching distance explained 71% of the variance on the slalom test. Handgrip strength explained 52% of the variance on the 6-minute propulsion test. Conclusion. Performance at the manual wheelchair propulsion tests is explained by a combination of factors that should be considered in rehabilitation.

“…To determine maximal heart rate, we used a Shuttle Run Test, which is a multi-stage test measuring aerobic fitness. We used four adapted versions for children with CP (GMFCS levels I to IV) [24][25][26] which are described in Table 1. It has been shown that these protocols are valid and reliable to assess cardiorespiratory fitness.…”

OBJECTIVE When investigating dose-response relationships in rehabilitation studies, dose is often equated with duration of therapy. However, according to the American College of Sports Medicine, dose consists of the factors frequency, intensity, time and type. Thereby, especially quantification of intensity needs improvement to have a more precise estimate of the dose. Thus, the aim was to investigate the intensity during mobility-focused, real-life pediatric rehabilitation therapies. DESIGN Eleven participants (5 girls; 12.5±2.1y old) with neurological disorders and independent mobility wore accelerometers at wrists and ankles and a portable heart rate monitor during several of the following therapies: sports therapy, mobility-focused physiotherapy, medical training therapy, and robot-assisted gait training. Intensity of physical activity was quantified by activity counts (measured via accelerometers) and heart rate. RESULTS Therapy duration did not correlate with intensity. At the same time we found significant differences between intensities of different therapies. CONCLUSION Different therapies elicit different levels of intensity in children with neuromotor disorders. Heart rate and activity counts are suited to estimate the intensity of a therapy and provide complementary information. We recommend against using the duration of a therapy as a proxy for the dose to make statements about dose-response relationships.
