ASTRIDE™ is a modern static standing frame with an abduction function. Its improved and lighter version allows for a wide range of adjustments within the feet, knees, and torso area, enabling fully safe and proper positioning of the user’s body in a standing position.
The new version of ASTRIDE™ features easy-to-fasten belts: chest and hip belts, with independent adjustments in all planes within the pelvic and torso area, providing complete control over hip positioning. This function is particularly helpful in cases of concurrent postural abnormalities.
Individually tailored foot stabilizers and contoured footrests with lateral supports ensure a stable positioning of the lower limbs. Rotating kneepads within the knee joint area alleviate pressure on the patella, stabilizing and maintaining correct leg positioning during upright standing.
A stable base equipped whit wheels with independent brakes allows easy transfer of the standing frame between rooms. The smooth height adjustment of the standing frame and table, aided by a gas spring mechanism, facilitates therapy and everyday activities such as learning, playing, or having meals.
