For disabled people with inconvenient legs and feet, a suitable wheelchair can not only facilitate daily living, but also expand the scope of life and participate in more family and social activities, so as to please the body and mind and enjoy a better life

Nowadays, there are many types and styles of wheelchairs on the market. At this time, users may not know what kind of wheelchair is more suitable to use. Even many people hold almost all wheelchairs and buy one at random. This kind of thinking is completely wrong. Because each passenger's physical condition, use environment and purpose of use are different, wheelchairs with different structures and functions are required. According to research, 80% of patients who use wheelchairs now choose the wrong wheelchair or use it incorrectly.

Generally, passengers need to ride a wheelchair for a long time. An unsuitable wheelchair is not only uncomfortable and unsafe to ride, but also may cause excessive local pressure on the passenger, form a bad posture, induce scoliosis, and cause secondary injuries such as joint contractures. . So it is very important to choose a suitable wheelchair. How do we choose the right wheelchair?


The wheelchairs we generally see include high-back wheelchairs, ordinary wheelchairs, nursing wheelchairs, electric wheelchairs, sports wheelchairs for competition, etc. The selection of wheelchairs should take into account the nature and degree of the patient's disability, age, general functional status, and the place of use.

01High back wheelchair

It is often used for patients with orthostatic hypotension who cannot maintain a 90-degree sitting posture. After the orthostatic hypotension is relieved, they should be replaced with ordinary wheelchairs as soon as possible, so that patients can drive the wheelchair by themselves.

02 Ordinary wheelchair

Patients with normal upper limb function, such as lower limb amputation patients, low paraplegia patients, etc., can choose a normal wheelchair with a pneumatic tire wheelchair.

03 Electric wheelchair

Those with poor upper limb hand function and unable to drive ordinary wheelchairs can choose wheelchairs or electric wheelchairs equipped with friction resistance handwheels.

04 Nursing wheelchair

If the patient has poor hand function and is accompanied by mental disorders, a lightweight nursing wheelchair can be used, which can be pushed by others.

05 Sports Wheelchair

For some young and able-bodied wheelchair users, sports wheelchairs can help them carry out physical activities and enrich their spare time.
