Spex Lateral Trunk Supports:
Axial Biangular

Superior trunk positioning and pressure distribution

The Axial Biangular lateral trunk support has been designed to provide superior trunk positioning and improved pressure distribution for individuals who present with scoliosis and/or other complex trunk asymmetries observed on the frontal plane. Its system comprises a pivot-hinge within the lateral pads which allows for intricate positioning for both concave and convex deviations as it adjusts to different body presentations. Together with the Axial technology and superior foam padding finish, the Biangular lateral support ensures optimum fitting to address asymmetric body shapes, and provides excellent pressure distribution through a wider surface area to optimise comfort.

Benefits of Axial Swing-Away Technology
Clinical

Designed for the individual who:

  • Presents with scoliosis and/or other trunk asymmetries featuring increased lateral flexion of the trunk.
  • Requires superior surface contact area and increased pressure distribution to accommodate lateral trunk deviations – for both concave and convex asymmetries
  • Requires gradual correction of trunk asymmetries towards midline

 

Functional
  • ±90° angle adjustment from flat surface, providing a total of 180° angle range.

  • The lateral trunk support allows for angle adjustment within the pad due to its patented pivot-link system – essential to graduate positioning and comfort.
  • The Axial technology associated to this superior lateral trunk support permits positioning of the pad virtually anywhere
  • Superior foam padding finish contains an extra layer of soft pressure-relieving foam which allows for greater surface contact area, superior pressure relief and overall comfort. Two padding styles are available, Standard and Pressure Reduction – with Pressure Reduction padding containing an additional layer of foam.
  • Swing-away mechanism allows for ease of transfers.
  • Supplied with removable and washable covers. Comfi-cover option has pull strap for ease of releasing lateral mechanism.
