Management of hip posture in cerebral palsy. Clarke, A. M. & Redden, J. F. J R Soc Med, 85(3):150--151, March, 1992.
abstract   bibtex   
Seating arrangements for cerebral palsy children with total body involvement are often unsatisfactory and can pose considerable problems for the multi-disciplinary team. Hip joints at risk of dislocation must be kept in an abducted position in order to minimize pain. A new wheelchair with a barrel-shaped cylindrical seat has been developed which improves the femoral head location and alleviates pain.
