During the mat exam, the client is examined both in supine and sitting on the edge of the mat table. As you go through the exam in each position, its important to describe the clients reflexes and muscle tone and their influence on body movements and posture. Be sure to note any range of motion limitations as well.
The MAT process facilitates the selection of a seating system with appropriate size and shape for the client. This is done with respect to the clients requirement for functional capacity, posture and pressure management.
It usually involves postural assessment of the person in their existing seating system, in supine, and sitting on a firm surface. Neurological issues such as tone and spasm pattern should be noted as they affect posture and muscle length.
Ask a GP, physiotherapist or hospital staff to refer you to your local wheelchair service for an assessment.
