The
sascha.
seat and restraining system is a medical product of risk class 1
and is available in three sizes. It is designed for conveyance of children and
teenagers with disabilities. The adaptation of the seat and the equipment
with disability-specific accessories is done by the specialist dealer. When
using the seat and restraint system, the actual restraint function is exe-
cuted entirely by the 3-point seat belt in the vehicle. The belts built in the
seat serve only to support and position the user.
2.3.1 Indication
Paralysis or substantial reduction in the torso musculature, so that sitting
erect without comprehensive support is not possible or leads to incorrect
posture, deformation and pain.
Malformation and/or deformation of the body which makes sitting impos-
sible or substantially more difficult without specific support and fixation.
For deformative diseases to guide body growth in children and teenagers.
There may be a medical necessity for the prescription of seat pans in
case of:
• Infantile cerebral palsy
• Myelodysplasia
• Muscular dystrophy
• Various disease patterns with scoliotic deformations of the spine.
Such systems can be used if the loss of torso and head stability must be
compensated for, and therefore a stable seating position must be achie-
ved for a disabled child within a car, and if a standard commercially-avai-
lable seat pan is no longer sufficient.
