ABSTRACT
The aim of this review is to investigate existing and developing technologies assessing metrics of manual wheelchair propulsion. A scoping review of scientific and gray literature was performed. Five databases were searched - Medline, Scopus, CINAHL, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and Embase. The 38 retained articles identified 27 devices categorized into accelerometers, wheelchair-mounted devices, instrumented wheels, and wearables. The devices included in this review can be used by manual wheelchair users to monitor propulsion effort and activity goals, by clinicians to assess rehabilitation programs, and to inform and guide future research. The findings support a need for further research into the development of custom algorithms for manual wheelchair user populations as well as further validation in broader free-living environments with equitable participant populations.
