  • Diseases of wheelchair users

    Hello to everybody:

    In order to write a report to an organization of disabled people, we
    need to know some statistics about the incidence rate for the most
    frequent diseases leading to the use of a wheelchair. Incidence
    numbers of pathologies such as paraplegia, tetraplegia, stroke,
    cerebral palsy, degenerative joint diseases, amputation, ataxy, etc
    in wheelchair users are especially relevant to us.

    Thanks in advance. I will post a summary of responses.
