										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Irish Dristributer for <strong>ISKOMED </strong>Electric standing Frames (formerly Quest88 standers)</p>
<p>The <strong>DELTA Advance <em>(Levaflex)</em> Tilting Standing frame</strong> can be used by people with a wide range of conditions. Adults with spinal or head injuries, Multiple Sclerosis, and Motor Neurone Disease all have the potential to stand using this piece of equipment. The lifting mechanism features a motorized belt adjustment system that is capable of lifting up to 120kg (19 stone). The mechanism will allow those with moderate trunk control to raise themselves from sitting to standing and those with limited trunk control to be guided into standing with attendant assistance.</p>
<p>Where the <strong>DELTA Advance</strong> differs from other electric standing frames is in its patented Patient Seating Positioner (PSP). This has three uses:</p>
<p>Firstly, it compensates for different wheelchair types by allowing the knee pads and hand tubes to come to the user. By operating the recline function through the hand control unit, the standing frame will tilt towards the seated user enabling easier access. A byproduct of this is that the stander will return the user back precisely to their original seated position and this prevents the carer from having to “shuffle” the user back into his/her seat after use.</p>
<p>Secondly, this recline feature may be used once the user is stood, to move the user into a slightly supine position (up to 7.5° recommended). For some users, this helps them to achieve better head control. Note: This function should only be used as part of a professionally prescribed standing program.</p>
<p>Finally, the reciprocal movement between the lifting belts and the PSP offers an unprecedented level of comfort during the standing and sitting process and reduces any sensations of compression on the knees.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>ASTRIDE ABDUCTION STANDING FRAME </strong>is recommended for children with Cerebral Palsy Spastic Diplegia GMFCS 2, 3 and 4.</p>
<p>Therapeutic Advantage.</p>
<p>&#8211; Promote lower limb weight bearing in alignment and abduction.<br />
&#8211; Promote hip health and assist in the prevention of lower limb contractures.<br />
&#8211; Promote active standing with maximum lower limb abduction.<br />
&#8211; Prevent adductor length shortening.<br />
&#8211; Enable active sitting to standing using multi directional knee blocks.<br />
&#8211; Promote active trunk control by removing chest strap and using pelvic belt.<br />
&#8211; Promote hip health following hip surgery for children with hip displacement to prevent hip dislocation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>ASTRIDE<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></strong> 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.</p>
<p>The new version of <strong>ASTRIDE<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></strong> 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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p>Shank ( tibia and fibula) to vertical angle of 12 degrees positioning the knee supports at this angle with footwear or with the use of AFOs.</p>
<p>Thigh is able to move from incline to vertical to recline <strong>( see video)</strong> using the flexible belt</p>
<p>Trunk is able to remain vertical and can translate forward and backwards as much as is required slightly opening the chest straps at front and at the back to allow the movement to happen but not fully open for safety.</p>
<p>Centre of mass remains within the base of support of stander.</p>
<p>Head , trunk and pelvis are directly over the foot</p>
<p>The stander prevents knee flexion stiffness developing  which can drive hip flexor stiffness /Contractures  and promote good pelvic position in standing</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Size 2 – 2 years to 4 years </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Set stander for stable standing.</li>
<li>Foot flat , ankle is 10 degrees dorsiflexion, shank goes to 10 degrees incline, knee is 10 degrees flexion, placing the knee over the middle of the foot , thigh is vertical and hip is 10 degrees flexion, head trunk pelvis is directly over the foot.</li>
<li>Produces stability, produces momentum of thigh and trunk , facilitates hip and knee extension</li>
</ul>
