RESNA position on the application of power mobility devices for pediatric users.
Assistive Technology : the Official Journal of RESNA 2017 December 13
This paper serves as an update to the previous RESNA Position on the Application of Power Wheelchairs for Pediatric Users with more current and additional scientific literature. This document contains typical clinical applications and best evidence from the literature supporting the application of power mobility (PM) for young children and to assist practitioners in decision-making and justification. It is RESNA' s position that age, limited vision or cognition, behavioral issues, and the ability to walk or propel a manual wheelchair short distances should not, in and of themselves, be used as discriminatory factors against providing PM for children. RESNA recommends early utilization of PM for children with mobility limitations as medically necessary, to promote integration and psycho-social development, reduce passive dependency, and to enhance participation, function, and independence.
