Hi Claus,
PhysioTools (exercise and patient education software) has recently made a
large collection for this type of patient. Many of the 500+ exercises are
for wheelchair-bound patients.
It was produced with material from The Boson Rehab. Group in Sweden. There's
a short article in Swedish at http://www.hi.se/aoh/artikel.asp?aid=312 but
you can get more information from www.physiotools.com
Hope that helps you in some way.
Adios,
Anita

>machines for therapy?
>2. Do you know any literature, research groups or rehabilitation centers
>that are working on this topic?
