Netti S with a wide leg support solution
– accommodates spicacast after hip operation.
It can be difficult to remain mobile and have a good seating position when being positioned with your legs abducted in a spica cast. Netti S enables the child to be mobile despite the cast that keeps the hips and pelvis in the right position for the weeks after the operation.
Many solve this by using a wide wheelchair to enable the abducted legs fit in the wheelchair. This is however not a great seating solution.
We from Netti have kept the wheelchair narrow but created wide leg supports while the overall width of the chair is narrow.
The advantages are:
- It is easier to maneuver in tight areas like homes
- The person itself has easier and more ergonomic access to the driving wheels so shoulder problems as secondary symptoms can be avoided.
Furthermore, Netti S gives the opportunity to:
- Open the hip angle, if necessary, using the recline function.
- Use 35° tilt to avoid pressure injury
- Elevate the leg supports while tilt is used to reduce fluid stagnation and swelling in the legs
Combining lightness and perfect handling in an innovative design
