2:30pm – 3:30pm Power Seat Functions: Examining
the Myths (0.1 CEU, 1 contact hour) - Workshop 2
Matt Weaver, National Product Education Manager, Permobil Inc.
* This workshop is geared to therapists but all
attendees are welcome to attend.
A S
Power seating is often prescribed to manage the risk of
pressure ulcers, a potentially serious complication for
individuals who use wheelchairs. There is much evidence
suggesting the use of power seat functions will reduce the risk
of pressure ulcers; however, clinicians sometimes have
negative perceptions about the use of certain seat functions.
Additionally, there is interesting research about the usage
patterns of the various power seat functions that my impact
the prescription of these features. The purpose of this session
is to examine the research that is available and dispel the
myths surrounding power seating. Also, through the use of
case studies and current research, attendees will better
understand the importance of a holistic assessment for proper
prescription of seat functions for functioning as well as
management of pressure in the seated individual. Time will
also be allotted for audience participation and discussion.

intense model of therapy can not only manage the symptoms
but teach the children new skills that will lead to greater
independence. The goal of Intensive therapy is to teach new
and lasting functional skills. Some of the European-inspired
