Like an armrest bolster, the Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough reduces lateral leaning. An added benefit, over the bolster, is that this arm support has a trough that improves arm positioning and resident stability. The Arm Tray Lateral Stabilizer, which is foam padded for comfort, fits all full-arm wheelchairs. The Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough can be used on any chair that has an armrest that allows the straps to go around it. Offering support, balance, and positioning on the side that you need it the most. Easy to wipe clean cover is included. A gel pad is available for additional pressure release.
Applying the Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough
1. Open the Velcro closure on the cover.
2. Place the Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough on the left or right side, depending on which side the resident leans. If the resident leans left, use a left sided Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough. If they lean right, use a right sided Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough.
3. Secure the Velcro closure.
Caring for the Lateral Stabilizer Arm Trough
The polyester and sheepskin covers can be laundered and dried at temperatures up to 180 degrees F. Bleaching is not recommended. To reduce the amount of lint that may collect on the Velcro closures, SkilCare suggests washing and drying the covers with the closures fastened. Do not launder the foam. Nylon covers should not be laundered. Clean them with a spray and wipe cleanser and damp cloth.
