Back Supports
FACT: Back supports are typically made from a combination of durable and lightweight materials such as molded aluminum, foam, air cells, and breathable fabrics.
Adjustable to accommodate different body shapes and sizes, some back supports can also have head supports and lateral trunk supports attached to them.
Goal: A back support should promote spinal alignment and reduce the risk of developing pressure injuries or discomfort while using a wheelchair.
Custom Options
FACT: Standard back support solutions available may not align perfectly with your unique needs. Permobil presents a selection of custom backs including Comfort Designs and ROHO Custom to cater to your specific needs.
When selecting a seat cushion, back support or wheelchair, the Clinical Practice Guideline* recommends that the products:
- Minimize the pressure and shear exerted on the skin and soft tissue at high-risk areas
- Provide adequate support
- Maintain stability
- Maintains the individual’s full range of activities
*2019 Clinical Practice Guideline International Guideline
Cushions
FACT: Cushions can be made of foam, air (flowing air or non-flowing air), or be a combination of these materials (hybrid foam/air or foam/gel).
Custom Options
FACT: Sometimes, all the cushion options that have been tried still don’t meet your individual needs. Custom fabricated seat cushions are also an option and Permobil offers the Inception cushion and ROHO custom.
Seating & Positioning Accessories
FACT: Head supports, lateral trunk supports, and arm and leg accessories, can play a crucial role in enhancing comfort, stability, and positioning.
BodiLink® offers:
- Head supports that are compatible on virtually any power or manual wheelchair and offer a full range of adjustability and positioning.
- Lateral trunk supports are anatomically designed and have adjustable features and contours
- Lateral pelvic/thigh supports offer multiple configurations and adjustability for leg, hip and knee positioning.
We also offer residual limb/amputee supports, arm and foot care products and lap trays.
Finding your individual solution
Finding the right seating solution can be confusing, especially when you consider multiple factors such as your lifestyle, skin protection and positioning needs, and comfort.
