Questions and Answers

What is the primary focus of the intervention strategies for postural stability while seated?

  • Establishing a neutral and active sitting alignment (correct)
  • Wheelchair adjustment to promote trunk alignment
  • Trunk strengthening against gravity
  • Weight shifting activity to promote weight bearing in pelvis

Which activity is recommended to be performed while maintaining neutral sitting alignment?

  • Compensation and environmental adaptation to reduce risk for injury
  • Simulation of riding on a bus while seated and stopping to practice widening the base of support (correct)
  • Beam walking on surfaces smaller than feet to promote equilibrium
  • Maintaining trunk in midline

Which strategy is used to reduce the risk for injury in the context of postural adaptation while seated?

  • Feet kept shoulder width apart
  • Slight knee flexion
  • Maintain center of mass over base of support with activity (correct)
  • Equal weight bearing across left and right legs
