appropriate palliative solution


Explanation:
If the purpose is the alleviation of pain or for general comfort, I would suggest "palliative" for "confort".

Update with the extra info in the discussion: The "de confort" could also refer to the control system of the wheelchair (anti-bump/tilt control, navigation etc.), i.e. the control system guaranteeing a smooth ride & correct navigation.

Perhaps "appropriate wheelchair control solution" or "wheelchair control solution appropriate to the patient condition" would work, if this is indeed the correct interpretation.



Reference:

"the venture is developing a wheelchair control solution to respond to the needs of the severely disabled and paralysed." (http://anthillonline.com/aviator-smart-100/)


" CONTRÔLE D’AMORTISSEUR DYNAMIQUE.

Le contrôle d’amortisseur dynamique permet d’ajuster idéalement le comportement des amortisseurs pour qu’ils s’adaptent à toutes les situations de conduite, et améliorent le confort et la dynamique de conduite. En plus de la ****configuration de confort*** standard, qui amortit les bosses et autres mouvements indésirables, deux autres programmes sont disponibles : les modes Sport et Sport+. Dans ces modes, les amortisseurs sont automatiquement serrés pour un style de conduite plus sportif." (https://www.bmw-tahiti.com/fr/all-models/x-series/X3/2014/dr...

Asker: Thanks Gareth. However, I'm not sure you can use "palliative" for general comfort and pain would not be a factor in all cases.

Asker: Thanks. Not sure whether "ergonomic" is over-translation, even if it is what they meant. Shall think about it.
