Ultrasonographic comparison of the lateral epicondyle in wheelchair-user (and able-bodied) tennis players: A pilot study

Vivian Roy et al.

Summary: Wheelchair users may be at risk for lateral epicondylosis (LE), but no significant differences were found among groups in the study. Age was related to the probability of LE for able-bodied controls and tennis players, while duration of wheelchair use was a significant predictor of LE.

Musculoskeletal Pain Due to Wheelchair Use: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Andreas Liampas et al.

Summary: This systematic review aimed to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in wheelchair users attributable to wheelchair use, identify different pain syndromes, and discuss risk factors and management options. The pooled prevalence of musculoskeletal pain was 50%, with shoulder pain being the most common syndrome. Older age and longer duration of wheelchair use were significant determinants of pain in wheelchair users. Management of pain should adhere to national and international guidelines, with optimal seating adjustment being important for preventing pain.
