A wheelchair is a wheeled mobility device in which the user sits. The device is propelled either manually (by turning the wheels by the hand) or via various automated systems. Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness (physiological or physical), injury, or disability.

A wheel Chair is a chair fitted with wheels.

The wheelchair comes in variations allowing either manual propulsion by the seated occupant turning the rear wheels by hand or electric propulsion by motors.

There are often handles behind the seat to allow for different individuals to push. Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness, injury, or disability. People who have difficulty sitting and walking often make use of a wheel bench.

A basic manual wheelchair incorporates a seat, footrests, and four wheels: two, caster wheels at the front, and two large wheels at the back. The two larger wheels in the back usually have hand-rims; two metal or plastic circles approximately 3/4" thick.

A wheel Chair assists people to become more mobile and independent. There are many different types of wheelchairs that are used for various reasons. It is important to understand the limitations and safe operation of whatever wheelchair you choose.

The chair seat size (width and depth), seat-to-floor height, footrests/leg rests, front caster outriggers, adjustable backrests, controls, and many other features can be customized on, or added to, many basic models, while some users, often those with specialized needs, may have wheelchairs custom-built.

Electric Wheelchairs

The electric wheel chair is propelled by a motor and battery. They are also known as folding wheelchair. They are very sophisticated. They are operated with a joystick or push buttons. Some electric wheelchairs use advanced technology and can climb upstairs, move across gravel and even rise up to give access to high shelves. Electric wheelchairs need strong frames to support the motor and battery so they are very heavy and also quite expensive. The average Wheel Chair price is Rs 50,000 but can go up to Rs 125,000 for the high-end models. Also, Wheelchair on Rent is an alternative for those who can’t afford to buy a new one due to the high cost of the wheelchair. The rent of motorised wheelchair is Rs 6000 per month for the basic variant with deposit.

Power Wheelchair

The ‘best’ type of power wheelchair varies from person to person. It all depends on someone’s personal challenges and goals.

When choosing a power wheelchair, we always recommend getting an assessment. Working with a specialist ensures you get the right drive type and customisations for the user.

Finding the right power wheelchair for every client is what we’re all about. We’ve seen the positive impact the right support and aids have on everyday life. So, we’re passionate about connecting as many people as possible with the right chair for them.

This, according to the functionality can be divided into 3 different types:

  1. Front Wheel Power Chair

  2. Rear Wheel Power Chair

  3. Mid Wheel Power chair

Heavy Duty Electric Wheelchair

 

Heavy duty wheel chairs feature the extended widths and weight capacities necessary to support heavier patients. They can be either powered or self-propelled, though powered units are more common. Heavy-duty wheelchairs often come equipped with additional safety and comfort features to prevent accidents or injuries such as pressure ulcers. They are meant for patients over 250 or 300 pounds and go up to 500 pounds. Again, our favourite for obese patients are the Drive wheelchairs.

These wheelchairs are very heavy and well-built to stand the test of time. They are usually larger in size as they are built for bigger individuals.  In fact, we carry a whole line of bariatric equipment for obese patients.

Reclining Electric Wheelchair

Reclining wheelchairs are designed to allow the user to recline comfortably at incremental angle positions, without exerting so much energy. These types of chairs offer a change in positioning, allowing the user to open the seat to back angle, which is a lot more comfortable than a conventional seating system. This sort of positioning promotes good back posture and helps avoid back injury from long-term seating.

There are many reasons why you would purchase a reclining chair, we made a list that you can skim through below to get more of an idea of what you need. The Reclining wheelchair helps in prevention from pressure sores, helps alleviate hypotension, easy transfers, and is comfortable.

Manual Wheelchairs

A manual wheelchair is one that is propelled by the user. It is usually done by pushing on round bars that surround the wheels. This wheelchair also has handles on the back so it can be pushed by another person. A manual wheelchair is easy to maintain, is lightweight, and is the least expensive to buy. At Healthy Jeena Sikho, we have complete range of affordable manual wheelchair range. The cost of Wheelchair is Rs 4500 for the basic model but cost of premium wheelchair could go upto Rs 20,000 with features like toilet seat, small wheels, brakes, rugged, folding and extremely lightweight.

Sports Wheelchairs

Just as other sports require participants to use certain equipment and skills, wheelchair sports require a certain set of equipment and skills. There are a wide range of sports developed for wheelchair users including Archery, basketball, boccia, dancing, racing, rugby, and tennis.

Whether a beginner looking to start playing a wheelchair sport, those with advanced skills, or professional athletes, there are a huge range of sport wheelchairs available depending on the sport and the level at which the user plays.

The wheelchairs used for each sport have evolved to suit the specific needs of that sport and often no longer resemble their everyday cousins. They are usually non-folding (in order to increase rigidity), with a pronounced negative camber for the wheels (which provides stability and is helpful for making sharp turns), and often are made of composite, lightweight materials. Even seating position may be radically different, with racing wheelchairs generally used in a kneeling position.

Sport wheelchairs are rarely suited for everyday use, and are often a 'second' chair specifically for sport use, although some users prefer the sport options for every day. Some disabled people, for instance lower-limb amputees, may use a sport wheelchair only for sports, but not for everyday activities.

Standing Wheelchairs

A standing wheelchair is one that supports the user in a standing position. They can be used as both a wheelchair and a standing frame, allowing the user to sit or stand in the wheelchair. They will move from sitting to standing with a hydraulic pump or electric-powered assist.

Foldable Wheelchairs

Foldable wheelchairs are specifically designed to be stored in small places and are ideal for travel enthusiasts. The lightweight design and foldable feature provide real-time mobility for the user. It is easy to store foldable wheelchairs in the trunk of a car or even a cupboard. Foldable wheelchairs are generally less sturdy and are mostly preferred by part-time users or by those who travel in vehicles.

Seat of foldable wheelchair is made of flexible/folding material like cloth, leather or synthetic material like artificial leathercloth. Such flexible seat allows the chair’s side to collapse and come together.

Pediatric Wheelchair

There are a wide variety of pediatric wheelchairs available exclusively for children.

As these types of wheelchairs are for kids, they are often quite small and novel in appearance. These wheelchairs come in both manual and electric models with ultra-light designs.

Most pediatric wheelchairs are adjustable, for example, the seat height can be raised as a child grows older. These chairs are available on customer demand at best price at Healthy Jeena Sikho.

Commode Wheelchair

Commode wheel chair- a portable toilet that can be placed at the bedside of a patient whose activity is limited; these are often used in the home when the patient is too debilitated to reach the bathroom. 

The various needs of patients have multiple solutions for toilet wheelchair. One is just a chair with pot, to be used in the room. Another variant is having toilet seat wheelchair. Third variant is a wheelchair with pot but which could also be wheeled into the washroom on western toilet.

Big problem with Indian toilets is the SIZE of the washroom door! Most wheelchair can't be taken into the Toilet due to this problem and you must consult our experts before buying to get the right advice.

The receptacle for waste can be removed and emptied. A commode wheelchair helps in reducing the caregiver efforts while giving extra comfort to the user. The wheelchair can ideally be used indoors.

We, at Healthy Jeena Sikho bring to you best price for sale and renting this wheelchair. Cost of rent of wheelchair is Rs 1000 onwards for manual models.

Three-wheeled Wheelchairs

3 wheeled wheelchairs are not a new concept and have frequently been used in the design of racing wheelchairs, tennis wheelchairs, and other sports as well as everyday all-purpose wheelchairs. These wheelchairs are more stable and maneuverable over rough terrain than a four-wheel wheelchair.

Recent technological advances are slowly improving wheelchair and EPW technology. Some wheelchairs, such as the iBOT, incorporate gyroscopic technology and other advances, enabling the chair to balance and run on only two of its four wheels on some surfaces, thus raising the user to a height comparable to a standing person. They can also incorporate stair-climbing and four-wheel-drive feature motorized assists for hand-powered chairs are becoming more available and advanced.

Anytime you are in the market for a wheelchair, no matter what type you are looking for, it is a good idea to do some comparison shopping.

Different wheelchairs come with different capabilities and different prices as well. You will want to make sure you get a good deal for your money and end up with the best wheelchair for the person who will be using it.

You can buy wheelchairs today in festive colors and seat prints. Plus you can further customize them after purchase to make the wheelchair uniquely the user's own.

The Indian census predicts, (much like the rest of the world), age related and disease related need of 1% of the population for a wheelchair. Due to various reasons, including affordability, high prices, less awareness, not even 50% of those needing wheelchair are provided with wheelchair. The fact that its now available in most big to small towns, wheelchair prices have come down dramatically, its now even available Online, lots of charity work allows for easy access to wheelchairs, is helping the cause of those needing wheelchairs.

Even US has a total of over 2.8 million wheelchair users, for a population of 300 million, this is just under 1%.

Health and quality of life

In addition to providing mobility, an appropriate wheel chair is of benefit to the physical health and quality of life of the user. Combined with adequate user training, an appropriate wheelchair can serve to reduce common problems such as pressure sores, the progression of deformities or contractures, and other secondary conditions.

A wheelchair with a proper cushion often prevents premature death in people with spinal cord injuries and similar conditions and, in one sense, is a life-saving device for these people. A wheelchair that is functional, comfortable, and can be propelled efficiently can result in increased levels of activity. Independent mobility and increased physical function can reduce dependence on others. Other benefits, such as improved respiration and digestion, increased head, trunk, and upper extremity control, and overall stability, can be achieved with proper postural support.

Maintenance of health is an important factor in measuring the quality of life. These factors combined serve to increase access to opportunities for education, employment, and participation within the family and the community

How to Choose WheelChair based on functional performance?
