Abstract
Videotape analysis of biomechanical movements involved in chair egress was used to assess the efficacy of the Warren Chair, a non-electromotive assistive chair. Persons experiencing chair egress difficulties were videotaped egressing both the Warren Chair and their own standard chair. Compared to standard chairs, Warren Chair egresses were easier, required less time, were more ergonomically efficient and provided more postural balance at the completion of the egress. The authors conclude that the Warren Chair provides a number of positive solutions for the problems experienced by persons in chair egress.
