Product Description
- New sturdier design
- Helps minimize patient falls from wheelchairs
- Locks wheels automatically when patient begins to stand
- Optional alarm for added safety
AliMed® Anti-Rollback System High-fall-risk patients with memory or cognitive issues often inadvertently stand without manually securing their wheelchair brakes, allowing the wheelchair to roll away and putting them at risk of sustaining serious fall-related injuries. The Anti-Rollback System’s weight-sensitive braking mechanism automatically locks rear wheelchair wheels when a patient stands, helping to reduce incidences of harmful falls.
Wide system fits wheelchairs 22"-24"W.
How it works: As the patient rises from the wheelchair, the weight-sensitive seat lever engages upward, lowering the brake arms to secure the wheels. When the patient sits, the brake arms unlock automatically, allowing the chair to roll freely. Temporary override lever attached to the back of the wheelchair disengages the braking system when the wheelchair is unoccupied. No batteries needed. Optional tamper-resistant A?larm can be added for extra security and is triggered by a switch that is mechanically linked to the seat lever. Alarm requires 9V batteries.
Caution: This device works only with sling-seat wheelchairs. The use of wooden solid-seat inserts and drop seats will interfere with the safe operation of this product. Periodic inspection to ensure proper adjustment is recommended.
