Leg rests are simple to attach or remove, and they can be moved from one chair to another to ensure that they are always available. Legrests are available in two different styles for basic and lightweight Spinlife wheelchairs: elevating or swing away legrests. Both are suitable for the majority of users. The swingaway legrests are a great option for many because they can be elevated to a height that is comfortable, and then reduced for transfers into and out of the wheelchair. The leg rests that elevate are perfect for anyone who needs their legs to be elevated and are fitted with Calf pads. Heavy User Wheelchair with Elevated Leg Rest Created for bariatric wheelchair users who require leg rests the Titus Heavy Duty Wheelchair with Elevating Leg Rests provides an ultra-sturdy frame that can support larger frame dimensions. This wheelchair is ideal for those who have larger requirements. It has the capacity of a seat that is 30 inches wide with it has a weight limit of 700lbs, a heavy-duty slide-tube silver vein steel frame, and swing-away detachable feet plates. Elevating legrests powered by electricity are a standard feature on many wheelchairs, and let the user elevate their feet to a more comfortable position to improve circulation and reduce swelling. The legrests can be raised and lowered with one motion. Some models include the option of a calf-strap cushion for added comfort. This can be particularly helpful for those with poor knee flexion or arthritic issues as it allows the user to remain in an extended (knee straight) position. The other type is an articulated footrest. It differs from a standard legrest for wheelchairs because it is adjustable at different angles. This makes it a great choice for those who may have difficulty with the knee flexure angle when lifting or lowering the footplate. The articulation changes the distance between the knee and footplate when in different positions. This means that the footplate will be larger when it's elevated compared to when it's lowered. The articulating legrests are more expensive due to the fact that they are powered. They can be found on wheelchairs that are more specialized. This is largely due to the additional components required to power this type of legrest, which includes a motor, actuator and controls. Having these additional parts also increases the weight of the wheelchair, making it more difficult to manoeuvre particularly in tight spaces. There are two main kinds of wheelchairs that have elevating legrests; swing away and centre mount. Both have their advantages and disadvantages however it all comes down to the personal preference of the user and their requirements. Legrests that are swivelling away have the advantage that they can be positioned at either side of the chair to allow more freedom of movement, but can be more vulnerable to damage because the actuator is located on the outside of the legrest where it is easily smashed by other users or by items in the room. The centre mount legrests are safer as they are fixed in the middle of the wheelchair. They are also less likely to be hit. They don't have as many options for positioning, and may be a barrier to some users. It is important to talk with a healthcare professional regarding your options prior to deciding on swing away or centrally mounted legrests so that you can be sure that the best legrest is selected for your needs. Standard Wheelchair with Leg Rests Elevated Standard wheelchairs with leg rests are designed to redistribute pressure from the legs, which helps to prevent the formation of pressure sores. They also aid in improved circulation and comfort in the lower limbs, in addition to helping maintain stability and balance. The padded leg rests are typically installed to the front or rear of the wheelchair, and come with a variety of adjustable features. Certain leg rests feature a swing-away feature that can make it easier to transfer into and out of a wheelchair. Some have the telescoping footplate, which can be adjusted to accommodate different lengths of legs. There are many different kinds of leg rests that are available for wheelchairs, and selecting the right one for you will depend on your medical health. Some leg rests are motorized while others are manual. Leg rests can also be adjusted at different angles, which can alter your sitting position and mobility. The choice between an elevating leg rest or an leg rest that is articulating will depend on your medical needs. Elevating legrests remain at the same height and are ideal for those who are unable to bend their legs. If you can bend your legs and have an articulated legrest, it could be the best choice for you. This is because they adjust their length automatically, which means you don't have to constantly adjust them manually.
