First seen Dec 24, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study is testing a new questionnaire called the Pressure Relief Frequency Scale (PReFS) to see if it can reliably help wheelchair users with neurologic disorders (like spinal cord injury, stroke, or traumatic brain injury) decide how often they need to relieve pressure. Researchers will interview 15 participants for about 10 minutes to check the tool's accuracy. The goal is to improve pressure sore prevention, not to treat the underlying condition.
