Powered elevating legrests are a standard feature on a variety of wheelchairs. They allow the user to raise their feet to a comfortable level to improve circulation and reduce swelling. This type of legrest can be adjusted and raised in a single motion. Some models come with a calf cushion for extra comfort. This is particularly useful for those with poor knee flexion or arthritic condition as it allows them to remain in an upright (extended) position. The other is an articulated footrest. It is different from a standard wheelchair legrest because it is adjustable to different angles. This makes it an ideal option for those who have difficulty with the knee flexure when lowering or elevating the footplate. The articulation changes the distance between the knee and footplate when in different positions, which means that the footplate is larger when it is elevated than when it is when it is lowered. Because they are powered, legrests with articulation do have an additional cost and as such, you'll often see them attached to a higher-end wheelchair. This is because of the additional components needed to power this type of legrest including an actuator, motor and controls. These additional components increase the weight of the wheelchair, making it more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces. There are two primary types of wheelchairs with elevating legrests; swing away and centre mount. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but it ultimately comes down to individual preference and the needs of the individual user. Legrests that swing away can be put on either side of the chair to provide greater mobility. However they are more susceptible to damage due to the fact that the actuator is situated outside the legrest. This is the place where it is susceptible to being thrown over by other users and other objects in the room. Centre mount legrests provide an alternative that is safer because they are attached to the center of the wheelchair and are less likely to be damaged. However, they don't provide as many positions and it is worth considering that the center mount may be a visible obstruction for certain users. It is important to talk to a healthcare professional about your options prior to deciding on swing away or centrally mounted legrests so that you can be sure that the best legrest is chosen for your needs. Standard Wheelchair with Leg Rests Elevated Standard wheelchairs with leg rests are designed to redistribute pressure from the legs, helping to prevent the formation of pressure sores. They also help improve circulation and comfort for the lower limbs and aid in maintaining balance and stability. The padded legrests are usually installed on the front or back of the wheelchair, and include a range of options for adjustment. Some leg rests come with an option to swing away that can make it easier to move into and out of a wheelchair. lightweight folding self propelled wheelchair come with an adjustable, telescoping footplate that can be adjusted to different leg lengths. The type of leg rest you pick will depend on the condition of your wheelchair. Some leg rests have motors, while others do not. Leg rests can also be adjusted at different angles, which could affect your sitting posture and mobility. Your medical condition may determine your decision. Elevating leg rests remain at the same elevation and are therefore ideal for those who cannot bend their legs. If you do have the option of bending your legs, an articulated leg rest might be better.
