Burn on the buttocks caused by gel wheelchair cushion left on driver's seat of hand control car.

CONCLUSION: In modern times, the lives of people with paralysis are no longer restricted to the bed and wheelchair. Active people with spinal cord injuries inevitably diversify the use of wheelchair cushions in many ways; therefore, there is a greater possibility for the occurrence of associated hazards. This is a preventable issue, so both the user and manufacturers should recognize this potential hazard of gel wheelchair cushions. PMID: 30946002 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
