The following precautions should be taken when using a wheelchair with cerebral palsy:

Choose a suitable wheelchair: Based on the patient's physical condition and condition, choose a wheelchair with appropriate width, length, height, backrest height, armrest height, etc., and there should be a cushion to avoid bedsores.

Attention to safety: When using a wheelchair, pay attention to safety. When entering or exiting the door or encountering obstacles, do not use the wheelchair to hit the door or obstacle, to avoid causing the wheelchair or patient to tilt forward and harm the patient. When pushing a wheelchair, instruct the patient to hold onto the armrest of the wheelchair and try to sit back as much as possible. Do not lean forward or get off the vehicle on their own.

Pay attention to the usage environment of the wheelchair: The front wheels of the wheelchair are small, and encountering small obstacles (such as small stones, small grooves, etc.) during rapid driving can easily cause the wheelchair to suddenly stop and cause the wheelchair or the patient to tilt forward and harm the patient. Pushers of the wheelchair must be careful, and if necessary, they can use a backward pull method.

Regular maintenance of wheelchairs: Wheelchairs are important tools for people with disabilities and require regular maintenance and inspection to ensure that all components of the wheelchair are in good condition. If there are any problems, they should be repaired or replaced in a timely manner.

Pay attention to diet and nutrition: Patients with cerebral palsy need to eat foods rich in protein, such as lean meat, milk, eggs, etc. They can also eat fresh fruits and vegetables, supplement vitamins and trace elements, improve physical fitness, and supplement the necessary nutrients in the body.

Conduct rehabilitation training: If the patient has motor or language disorders, rehabilitation training can also be carried out under the guidance of a doctor to promote the patient's recovery.
