  • Research | Kalogon

    2024 Seating and Sitting Survey: See highlights from Kalogon's survey of US general population and how this compares to US wheelchair users on attitudes and experiences of sitting and seating. Inaugural Seating & Sitting Survey January 2024 Up until this point, we have mainly shared our findings in our white paper, case study, and webinars. We are excited to share more information about seating and sitting, and the impacts of those on everything from pressure injuries to how people can live a more active, seated life. Open the survey results or read more about the survey purpose and methods below Kalogon digs into some of the top questions for US sitters including a sizable examination of people who use wheelchairs. This short report looks at how long people sit, feelings around sitting, comfortable and uncomfortable places to sit, and how people deal with the impacts of sitting. Importantly, we examine how many people have experienced pressure injuries. "There are myriad reasons why people sit for extended times–due to their jobs, disabilities and more. While it’s noble to encourage more movement, we can’t ignore the very valid reasons why people need to sit and must strive to improve seated wellness for those who do. Seating hasn’t been disrupted in 50 years, but we can massively improve our seated health by applying the best in health tech available to our butts." Tim Balz, CEO of Kalogon Survey highlights Pressure injuries (PIs) are one of the leading causes of preventable death in the United States. These injuries develop due to unmitigated pressure applied to the skin and deep tissue when seated for long periods of time. These can happen to anyone, not just those seating for their mobility. For more, see Kalogon’s White Paper 16% have a disability that requires sitting for extended periods. In this group 14% use a wheelchair for at least 30 minutes a day, representing about 2% of the population. Wheelchair Foundation estimates that about 1% of the population has a wheelchair and notes “With the world population increasing by 187,500 each day, there is an additional need for almost 3,500 wheelchairs every day (1.85% of the world population).” There’s no truly comfortable place to sit. There are LOTS of uncomfortable spaces for folks – and for both US Rep and Wheelchair users super hard seats (bar stools, bleachers/floor)rise to the top. More than a quarter of wheelchair users also see discomfort in their mobility devices, showing a need for ongoing tools to increase comfort in daily life. Among the US rep audience. airplane seats are the fifth most uncomfortable. Methodology Survey instrument and analysis created by Kalogon team and programmed using Centimentonline survey tools. Survey fielded Oct 20–Nov 29, 2023. Total survey was about 7 minutes in length with 36 total questions, although not all respondents were required to answer all questions. This report represents highlights. Data set is available for academic researchers by reaching out to the Kalogon Research Team at science@kalogon.com . Referenced in this report are two populations: US Rep/US General Population (n=1,045) •Purchased sample fromCentimentas US Rep (e.g.balanced for age, gender, HHI) •No screening criteria used Wheelchair Users (n=272) •Natural distribution of people indicated a disability that required sitting for long periods and wheelchair use Over-sample for Wheelchair Users (n=206) •Purchased sample from Centiment with conditions that may make it more likely that someone uses a wheelchair including muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson’s •Screening criteria for wheelchair usageAdditional purchased sample (n=42) •Ad purchased in a New Mobility e-newsletter on Nov 1 with an unbranded invitation to take a survey Please note sample sources - these were groups that could be targeted for research purposes and may not represent all wheelchair users.
