Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Phase 1: physiological parameters : Oxygen consumption.

    3 hours

  • Phase 2: Ease of crossing obstacles assessed by patients with a Visual Analog Scale

    3 hours

  • Phase 3: Time necessary to transfer from wheelchair to car and from car to wheelchair.

    3 hours

Study Arms (3)

Phase 1: Performance evaluation on ergometer

EXPERIMENTAL

The 3 devices are experimented in random order to compare them on performance using an ergometer wheelchair: * Servomatic™ assisting device * E.Motion© assisting device * Standard manual Wheelchair

Device: Servomatic™ assisting deviceDevice: E.Motion© assisting deviceDevice: Standard manual Wheelchair

Phase 2: Comparison of maneuverability

EXPERIMENTAL

The 3 devices are experimented in random order to compare them on maneuverability: * Servomatic™ assisting device * E.Motion© assisting device * Standard manual Wheelchair

Device: Servomatic™ assisting deviceDevice: E.Motion© assisting deviceDevice: Standard manual Wheelchair

Phase 3: Comparison of the autonomy

EXPERIMENTAL

The 3 devices are experimented in random order to compare them on the autonomy they afford to patients: * Servomatic™ assisting device * E.Motion© assisting device * Standard manual Wheelchair

Device: Servomatic™ assisting deviceDevice: E.Motion© assisting deviceDevice: Standard manual Wheelchair
