Wheelchair Overview
Wheelchair: Understanding
When the user measures their immediate needs, including lifestyle habits, the amount of time that the chair will be used on a regular basis, and the situation and criteria of their condition, the wheelchair is best determined. Based on user preferences and level of mobility, the choice of wheelchairs is solely agreed upon.
Due to factors such as ease of mobility and the development of advanced features such as service warnings, battery alarms, demand for powered wheelchairs worldwide is expected to grow significantly. The introduction of inexpensive and thus easily accessible wheelchairs in developed economies is another factor expected to boost demand for powered wheelchairs.
Emerging developments that have a significant effect on the dynamics of the wheelchair industry include enhanced efficiency of wheelchairs to provide greater comfort and convenience, increased adoption of power assistance systems, and increased wheelchair hybrid concepts. In addition, higher structural strength and reliability along with less moving parts have greatly reduced the cost of repair, contributing to increased adult wheel chair adoption.
