MOBILE PARAPODIUM [ PJMP with table, PJM without table ]
PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS:
- stable structure enabling movement without assistance of a caregiver
- base with caster wheels with brakes
- equipment available with two types of a vest: with/without side supports (model without side supports is designed for patients with better physical performance, who do not require using torso support)
- provided with special “pants” protecting the patient against falling down, adjustable to individual size
- lower limbs separator to improve walking performance
- optionally: wrist straps, rear belt, additional side cushions, table with adjustable height and angle
INTENDED USE:
Indications of the Mobile Parpodium in rehabilitation is associated with the assumption that the organism is trying to achieve the state of homeostasis by systematic positioning in the upright position. This process involves: loading the bones of low extremities (a part of osteoporosis prevention), stabilizing the joint of lower extremities and the pelvic girdle and the spine in physiological planes (a part of prevention of articular and muscle contractures), strenghtening of postural muscles. Obtaining (restoring) the upright position itself is a very important element of adaptation to social relations, by tilting the patient feels equal to his social surroundings.
CONTRAINDICATIONS:
- Deep mental impairment ( unable to be controlled),
- Conditions preceding cerebral stroke,
- Conditions preceding myocardial infarction,
- Advanced osteoporosis with lower limb deformation (considerable deviation from the long axes of the extremities),
- All states, in which tilting or loading of the lower extremities is impossible
