Seating Assessment Tools is a systematic framework used in wheelchair seating science to evaluate individual postural support needs, positioning requirements, and risk factors for tissue damage, thereby differentiating it from general clinical assessment methods by its specific focus on interface pressures, anthropometric compatibility, and functional mobility outcomes in seated individuals with impaired mobility.
