Overview
Brief Summary
The main objective of this study is to evaluate via a physiological analysis of the movements involved in standing, the level of forward flexion of the spine (in cm on the horizontal axis) obtained with the apparatus "Tina" and to compare levels obtained in the same patients with stander/transfer devices "Turner" and "Vertic'Easy".
Detailed Description
Secondary objectives of this study are to compare the three devices in terms of: * the level recovery of the spine on the vertical axis (vertical displacement C7, cm) * standing time, defined by the time between the start of the forward flexion and the beginning of the vertical stabilization phase (seconds) * the success rate of the verticalization of the patient (the attempt is considered successful when the vertical position is held for 10 seconds).
