Electric wheelchair is a chair fitted with wheels. The device 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. Electric Wheelchairs are used by people for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness, injury, or disability. Disabled People who have difficulty sitting and walking often make use of a wheelbench. A basic manual wheelchair incorporates a seat, foot rests 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 handrims; two metal or plastic circles. Electric wheelchairs are propelled by a motor and battery. They are very sophisticated. They are operated with a joy stick or push buttons. Some electric wheelchairs use advanced technology and can climb up stairs, move across gravel and even raise 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. People with spinal cord injuries face similar decisions. Often a person with a spinal cord injury will use a motorized wheelchair, even though they are physically capable of using a manual chair. They don't do this because they are lazy. They do this to be more efficient with their energy reserves. People with spinal cord injuries often choose motorized wheelchairs to preserve their physical energy, so that they can complete the work. Sometimes need to save on physical energy so that have some allowance left over for intellectual or emotional pursuits.

Specially designed tricycles provide a mode of transport for the physically disabled allowing them much sought after independence and an opportunity for self support. The tricycles will enable freedom of movement and less dependency on others. Most of the people who depend on these tricycles are daily wage workers who have to travel long distances every day. The regular tricycles have no suspension and the riders are prone to spinal injuries. Most of them also cannot afford good medical care, and driving these tricycles for a long time affects. To deal with the problem, come up with a model tricycle that can be very useful to people who have a disability in their lower limbs, but a strong torso.

An umbilical cord may be a a part of the placenta that delivers nutrients to the baby from the mother once the baby is within the mother's uterus.

The timing of umbilical cord clamping at birth should be delayed just a few minutes longer, suggest researchers at the University of South Florida's Center of Excellence for Aging and Brain Repair.

Visit http://www.eciganywhere.tk Traditional smoking causes the impotence. You've already read on cigarette packets. But what does this information actually conveys? Tobacco and Erection Tobacco, harmful to the arteries of the heart and brain, is also to those of the penis. And yes, conventional smoking increases the risk of heart attacks, strokes and disorders of erection. But if the tobacco mouth penile arteries, it also has other harmful effects far less known. Female sexuality is also affected by smoking tobacco The first is to act on the arteries as sexual mutilation. If the penis of a traditional smoker is less well irrigated, or may even no longer be enough to get an erection, female sexual area also suffers from smoking tobacco. And that is because in the arteries sexual mutilation exists, similar to those of the sexual arteries of males. Thus, a conventional smoker's risk of sexual lubrication, witness his excitement, hang, like the erection may become blocked in humans smoking tobacco. And it gets worse. Conventional smoking has a virilizing effect. Female sex hormones are not in balance when the body is intoxicated by tobacco. This is also why the voice of women traditional smokers is serious, not because of irritation of the vocal cords, but increased male hormones which cause the a more low pitched voice. These effects on sexuality are reversible within days And then, if conventional smoking is dangerous in the long term, it is also very short term. Thus, a man who quits traditional smoking sees his erection improve significantly in two or three days! And a woman observes the same way and very quickly, better lubrication during vaginal sex. This improvement is not due to the fact that the arteries open in a few days. It's just that smoking tobacco causes a significant increase in the rate of carbon monoxide in the blood (CO) gas with a vasoconstrictor property. This gas contracts the arteries, narrowing the size, thus reduc

Good morning friends,Today I'll explain the importance of folic acid supplementation in pregnancy.Neural tube is a structure in the developing embryo, which finally develops into the brain & spinal cord.

Meditation may have potential to change the brain's physical structure, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, have found. People who meditate have stronger connections between brain regions and show less age-related brain atrophy, according to the researchers. Stronger connections influence the ability to rapidly relay electrical signals in the brain. And significantly, these effects are evident throughout the entire brain, not just in specific areas. The study consisted of 27 active meditation practitioners (average age 52) and 27 control subjects, who were matched by age and sex. The meditation and the control group each consisted of 11 men and 16 women. The number of years of meditation practice ranged from 5 to 46; self-reported meditation styles included Shamatha, Vipassana and Zazen, practiced by about 55 percent of the meditators, either exclusively or in combination with other styles. Pronounced structural connectivity The researchers used a type of brain imaging known as diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), a relatively new imaging mode that provides insights into the structural connectivity of the brain. They found that the differences between meditators and controls are not confined to a particular core region of the brain but involve large-scale networks that include the frontal, temporal, parietal and occipital lobes and the anterior corpus callosum, as well as limbic structures and the brain stem. They found pronounced structural connectivity in meditators throughout the entire brain's pathways. The greatest differences between the two groups were seen within the corticospinal tract (a collection of axons that travel between the cerebral cortex of the brain and the spinal cord), the superior longitudinal fasciculus (long bi-directional bundles of neurons connecting the front and the back of the cerebrum), and the uncinate fasciculus (white matter that connects parts of the limbic system, such as the hippocampus and amygdala, wi

The soft cervical collar is constructed of foam rubber and covered with a stockinette material. Normally, the closure is achieved with Velcro. Depending on the patient's pathology and body structure, physician and/or orthotist will determine the proper height of the collar. When worn, the soft cervical collar is a reminder to keep in head and neck in a restricted position. It is the mildest design of cervical immobilization. Cervical collars are applied to blunt trauma patients all the time. And most of the time, the neck is fine. It's just those few patients that have fracture or ligamentous injury that really need it. The Cervical Collar provides firm, comfortable support which helps to relieve neck discomfort while providing extra support. Cervical Collar has a convenient hook and loop closure which allows the unit to be adjusted for a proper fit. The Cervical Collar is constructed of soft, porous cotton cover for comfort which is over polyfoam for the best support. Cervical collars are an orthotic device used primarily in the treatment of neck injuries and strains. The most common use of cervical collars is during recovery after surgery on the cervical spine. They are also used in whiplash injuries and conditions like Cervical Radiculopathy, which is caused by the nerves in the neck compressing due to herniated disks in the spinal cord. The main function of the cervical collar is to immobilize the neck and hold it in a gravity-neutral position Tynor Cervical Collar Hard Adjustable is used for supporting, immobilizing or adjusting the neck in the flexion, extension, or hyperextension position. Recommended where a rigid immobilization of the cervical region is required. Anatomical shape. Comfortable edge padding. Adjustable height. Slight weight. Latex free. The soft cervical collar is not designed to completely restrict motion. It depends on providing resistance to movement, which tells the patient to restrict their movements. The soft collar i

Bladder dysfunction can be caused by multiple medical conditions, and sometimes a person with these issues may have to use a catheter to empty the bladder. Spinal cord injuries and other neurological disorders are some of the more common medical conditions that require catheterization; however, the process itself can lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs) if one does not catheterize correctly or if the equipment that is used is less than sanitary.

People who have bladder dysfunction due to medical conditions such as urinary incontinence, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, prostate cancer, dementia, or other medical conditions often must use catheters to drain the urine from their bladder several times daily. Catheters are thin, flexible tubes made of plastic or rubber and are available in appropriate sizes for men, women, and children.
