          Abstract

          Power wheelchairs (PW) with head/foot steering systems are used as an alternative to joysticks in children with severe dyskinetic cerebral palsy (DCP). Mobility training programs are unstandardized to date, and insight on dystonia, choreoathetosis, and mobility performance may lead to greater independent mobility.
