Short descriptionDYNAMIC 4-POINT SHOULDER H-HARNESS FlexPoint® allows the trunk to be properly positioned while sitting. It perfectly stabilizes the breastbone without limiting the movements of the shoulders. Breastbone stabilization improves upright position and reduces excessive slouched body posture. Upright position improves head control and swallowing and breathing functions.
DescriptionThe chest support has been designed to provide the user with the right balance between freedom of movement and full stabilization. The resilient material of the chest support guarantees better pressure distribution (vertical dynamics) and allows a certain range of free movement of the chest (horizontal dynamics) without limiting breathing functions. Smooth, elastic resistance in the chest area strengthens the breathing muscles. The durable material used for FlexPoint® products is soft and skin-friendly, works with the body and does not cause skin lesions or discomfort. The contact surface of the chest support with the body is greater than in other standard solutions, which guarantees better stabilization. A special front buckle fastening placed under the user’s sternum reduces the risk of strangulation and enables fast removal in emergencies (e.g. seizure); the front buckle also provides smooth width adjustment.
Safety notesFor safety reasons, it is recommended to use the DYNAMIC 4-point Shoulder H-harness together with a pelvic belt or thigh abduction belts. Choose your type of adjustment when ordering: each vest is available with front adjustment (user side) or rear adjustment (caregiver side). Before using the vest, familiarize yourself with the safety rules contained in the instructions for use. Improper use and failure to comply with safety rules may endanger the user’s health and life. ATTENTION! Whenever a chest support, harness or other trunk support is used, a properly adjusted pelvic support should also be worn to prevent sliding from chair/wheelchair.
