About this study
Official title: Evaluation of Positioning Protocols with an Adapted Equipment on a Wheelchair in Hemiplegic Patients Following a Stroke
The main purpose of this study is to assess the interest of using wheelchair positioning equipment on the decrease of postural disorders, compared to the standard use of a wheelchair
Read the detailed description
The stroke is the main cause of hemiplegia in developed countries. Fifteen percent of people who say they have a stroke need, at home, a wheelchair to get from one room to another. The use of a wheelchair can cause postural disorders which can lead to pain, orthopedic deformity and pressure ulcers.
This study aims to assess the interest of using wheelchair positioning equipment (Seat back, Positioning cushion and Belt) on the decrease of postural disorders.
This decrease will be assessed after a standardized course, performed under three different conditions: with the positioning equipment (Positioning cushion and Seat back), with the positioning equipment and the belt and with the wheelchair alone.
Clinical tool used to assess the decrease is the Seated Postural Control Measure for Adults 2.0 (SPCMA 2.0).
This study, which will be the first prospective, interventional, multicenter, controlled and randomized study, could pave the way for guidelines of good practice, for wheelchair positioning of hemiplegic patients in France

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Degree of pelvic posterior tilt
The Primary Outcome Measure is the variation of the Degree of pelvic posterior tilt at the end of the three standardized course. These courses were performed with Standard Wheelchair, Standard Wheelchair + Seat back + Positioning cushion + Belt or with Standard Wheelchair + Seat back + Positioning cushion.
The Degree of pelvic posterior tilt was measured using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Secondary outcomes (8)
Variation of Degree of pelvic posterior tilt
The variation of the Degree of pelvic posterior tilt was measured between the beginning and the end of the three standardized course using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Baseline and immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Variation of degree of lateral inclination of the torso
The variation of the degree of lateral inclination of the torso was measured between the beginning and the end of the three standardized course using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Baseline and immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Variation of the degree of Pelvis obliquity
The variation of the degree of Pelvis obliquity was measured at the end of the three standardized course using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 =moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Baseline and immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Degree of lateral inclination of the torso
The degree of lateral inclination of the torso was measured at the end of the three standardized course using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Degree of Pelvis obliquity
The degree of Pelvis obliquity was measured at the end of the three standardized course using the SPCMA 2.0 score (0 = normal, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe retroversion)
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Measure of patient's satisfaction
The satisfaction of patient was measured with a satisfaction questionnaire scale based on ease of movement, wheelchair comfort and pain during the course. For each item, patient ticks : Very satisfied, Satisfied, Neither satisfied or unsatisfied, Unsatisfied or Very unsatisfied
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Ability to achieve the whole course
Binary criteria (Yes / No)
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day
Adverse event collect
Total number of adverse event
Measured: Immediately after the end of the procedure, an average of 1 day

The record lists 7 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Sep 2024.
