国家目的：本研究的目的是制定轮椅维护培训计划(WMTP)，作为临床医生在小组环境中教轮椅使用者(如果适用)在美国进行家庭基本维护的工具，并开发轮椅维护培训问卷(WMT-Q)，以评估临床医生、手动轮椅用户和电动轮椅用户的轮椅维护知识。方法：通过迭代过程编制WMTP和WMT-Q。结果：临床医生(n=17)、手动轮椅(n=5)、电动轮椅使用者(n=4)和护理者(n=4)就培训方案提供了反馈。来自临床医生(n=38)、手动轮椅(n=25)和电动轮椅使用者(n=30)的方便样本回答了WMT-Q在不同发展阶段的问题。WMT-Q各分值的信度在ICC(3，1)=0.48到ICC(3，1)=0.89之间。使用所开发的材料对15名在美国接受面对面培训的临床医生实施了WMTP和WMT-Q，结果显示，在WMTP之后，除其中一个子分外，所有的WMT-Q子分都有显著的提高(p<；0.007)。结论：随着WMTP的进一步实施，WMTP将继续修订。WMT-Q是一种可接受的测量培训前和培训后维护知识的工具。
Purpose of state: The aims of this study were to develop a Wheelchair Maintenance Training Programme (WMTP) as a tool for clinicians to teach wheelchair users (and caregivers when applicable) in a group setting to perform basic maintenance at home in the USA and to develop a Wheelchair Maintenance Training Questionnaire (WMT-Q) to evaluate wheelchair maintenance knowledge in clinicians, manual and power wheelchair users.Methods: The WMTP and WMT-Q were developed through an iterative process.Results: A convenience sample of clinicians (n = 17), manual wheelchair (n infinity 5), power wheelchair users (n = 4) and caregivers (n = 4) provided feedback on the training programme. A convenience sample of clinicians (n = 38), manual wheelchair (n = 25), and power wheelchair users (n = 30) answered the WMT-Q throughout different phases of development. The subscores of the WMT-Q achieved a reliability that ranged between ICC(3,1) = 0.48 to ICC(3,1) = 0.89. The WMTP and WMT-Q were implemented with 15 clinicians who received in-person training in the USA using the materials developed and showed a significant increase in all except one of the WMT-Q subscores after the WMTP (p < 0.007).Conclusion: The WMTP will continue to be revised as it is further implemented. The WMT-Q is an acceptable instrument to measure pre-and post-training maintenance knowledge.
