Name of the model
The GIUDITTA wheelchair was designed based on more than twenty-five years of
experience with the elderly and disabled and is intended for hospital and home use . It
may be used outside if the warnings and instructions of this manual are observed,
especially the paragraphs “Warnings” on page 3 and 4, “Some examples of what not to
do with Giuditta” on page 6 and “Maintenance, Cleaning and Disinfection” on pages 39
and 40.
The aid is intended for those adults who do not have control of their trunk and/or
that tend to slide on one side or to sit on their coccyx rather than on their gluteus
and allows convalescents, disabled, elderly, etc. TO REMAIN IN IT FOR EXTENDED
PERIODS LYING DOWN AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO STAYING IN BED.
The conformation and reclining of the backrest, the seat tilting and the reclining of
the legrests allow the user to be positioned lying down, semi-lying down or
seated, while maintaining constant trunk-pelvis containment.
The inclination of the seat, the conformation of the backrest (triangular) and the
load-bearing padding prevent sliding forward and favour transpiration. This
arrangement allows the trunk to rest on several points , predominantly lateral with
respect to the spinal column.
THE TRUNK IS KEPT PERPENDICULAR TO THE PELVIS without particular
mechanical lateral supports or containment belts.
The NARROW BASE and SWING AWAY allow easy access to lifts or small rooms
LOW SEAT and SWING AWAY SIDE SUPPORTS help the user to get on / off the
chair and allow his easy transfers
The
HEADREST completes the user's posture.
