Total Hip Replacement Tall-ette Elevated Toilet Seat with slip-in LOK-IN-EL Bracket.

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

This elevated seat is specially designed to meet the needs of those who have had hip replacement

This elevated seat is specially designed to meet the needs of those who have undergone unilateral or bilateral total hip replacement. When the patient is seated on it, the legs are kept abducted in the proper position. The "saddle" type seat also prevents internal rotation as well as adduction at the hip. This can help reduce the effects of spasticity occuring in persons with cerebral palsy or other conditions affecting muscle tone. Adds 4" to the seating level. Weighs 3.3 lb. (1.5 kg). Designed in conjunction with the OT/PT Rehabilitation Departments at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, NY.
