The newly designed Lateral Supports and Hip Guides for Altimate's EasyStand Evolv are rigid and easily removable to allow more room for transferring the patient. The front seats have been re-contoured to provide greater lateral support, and the depth increased so you sit in the seat, not on it. For example, a person who cannot maintain upright trunk alignment may lean heavily to one side without adequate pelvic and/or lateral support. |
