More Details

Features
* Tilt in space: The seat unit tilts from -20degr to 15degr to accommodate both relaxed and active sitting postures. Depending on the level of function, some users will be able to activate the handle beneath the seat themselves
* Built-in growth: Stepless adjustment for growth. Move the backrest forward or backward and adjust the hip supports to fit any user size. The hip supports also angle to support the user's hips and thighs
* Angle adjustable push brace: Depending on the need, the push brace can be angled into the desired position. Use the push brace for moving the chair around or angle it 'up and away' when it is not in use
* The cushions are made from thick foam with breathable cover

Considerations

All pressure reduction products must be monitored to prevent 'bottoming out'. This occurs when the user weight bears down so hard on the product material that it is flattened and the bony parts are pressed against the surface below the cushion or mattress. Where bottoming out occurs even with correct use, a different product may need to be considered.

It is advisable to consult a professional experienced in seating, such as an occupational therapist or physiotherapist, during the prescription / purchase process.

TGA
Many of the items on the Assistive Technology Australia website are categorised as a Medical Device. Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). You can ask the supplier for the ARTG number for the device you wish to purchase and search the ARTG for the entry. To access information on the ARTG visit www.tga.gov.au

When buying a medical device it is advisable to only choose a medical device that is recommended by a healthcare professional and has been included on the ARTG.
