On Demand Webinar: Dynamic Seating: providing movement for clinical benefit

Title: Dynamic Seating: providing movement for clinical benefit

Speaker: Michelle Lange

Abstract: Dynamic seating provides movement within a wheelchair. When the client moves, the dynamic seating components move with the client, maintaining alignment with the seating system for postural support and stability. Clients who extend within the seating system or seek out movement may benefit from dynamic seating. Dynamic components absorb and diffuse force, protecting both the client from pain and injury and the wheelchair seat and frame from damage. Absorbing force may reduce muscle tone. Providing movement can increase alertness and decrease agitation. Movement can also improve function and postural control.

Learning Outcomes: At the end of session, attendees will be able to:

1. Participants will be able to List 3 clinical indicators for Dynamic Seating.
2. Participants will be able to List 3 areas of movement provided by Dynamic Seating.
3. Participants will be able to list 1 product option for a Dynamic Back, Dynamic Footrests, and Dynamic Head Support Hardware
