More Details

MATERIALS
Five water resistant compartments hold a large number of small tetrahedral shaped cells filled with air called SmartCells. These are coated with a slippery coating. Movement enables them to slide over one another to redistribute the filling.
An upward extension at the rear, containing a layer of tough impact absorbing foam, provides additional support and protection to the lower back.

COVER
The outer cover is water resistant, two way stretch and lightweight with a reinforced base. It has a degree of shock absorbing qualities.

ADJUSTMENT
Three straps hold the Allrounder in position. One around the waist and one around each thigh. Straps are adjustable and use a plastic buckle to fasten with a push button. The thigh straps have a degree of padding.

APPLICATION
The Vicair Academy AllRounder has been developed for the wheelchair user to use whenever they are out of their wheelchair. It is a replacement cushion for outdoor activities. The AllRounder also enables them to move around the house without their wheelchair. For example, they can get down on the floor to play with their children or to fix the car.

It can also be used while driving, sailing, canoeing, horseback riding or taking part in any other sporting activities.

CLEANING
The inner cover can be cleaned with a standard disinfectant or detergent. The outer cover can be machine washed at 60degreesC.

Many of the items on the ILC NSW 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. Please note that custom made devices are not required to undergo pre-market assessment by the TGA or to be included on the ARTG before supply.
