Abstract:

Studies have been undertaken to collect anthropometric data on persons with disabilities, specifically on the sub-population that uses wheeled mobility aids. This brief review discusses a few of those studies and how they may fit into larger research efforts. The author also reviews the transition of anthropometric data from research findings into standards and design guidelines.
