Altimate Medical Inc.
Adjustable Shadow Tray
This new shadow tray for the Evolv line is
adjustable in height and depth. It covers
the entire usable height and depth range
of the six previous shadow tray options it is
replacing. Designed to comfortably support
the user, the tray provides constant anterior
support throughout the sit-to-stand transition
to “shadow” the user in any position
between sitting or standing. The tray retains
the popular flip-up operation that quickly
moves it out of the way and provides a wide-open
base for transfers. The tray is available
in a black-molded or a clear acrylic style.
Apex Headrests
Apex Headrests are a new line of plush
wheelchair headrests available in a variety
of colors and sizes. With a streamlined and

support needs of different users. The
aluminum shell is lightweight, durable
and can be contoured to give the desired
support. Constructed from the highest-quality materials, Apex Headrests
provide wheelchair users with an effective
and stylish head support.
Ki Mobility
Contracture Footrest
The Ki Mobility Contracture Footrest has
extremely versatile construction, allowing
for extension, flexion, or lower leg rotation
for optimal angle and positioning of
knees and ankles. It helps maintain pelvic
positioning, postural support, and pressure
distribution, even with windswept deformities.
The Contracture Footrest is available for
Ki Mobility’s Focus CR and Little Wave Flip
wheelchairs.
Raz Design
Raz-CAT
The Raz Compact Attendant Tilt features a
smaller footprint that’s perfect for pediatric,
adolescent and smaller adult clients. The
base and seat frames retain the 18" width of
the Raz-AT commode chair so the Raz-CAT
can still be positioned over a toilet. But the
base frame is shortened 3" to make the chair
more maneuverable. A depth-adjustable
back offers depths from 12" to 15" (to front of
frame) or up to 17" with the front of the seat
overhanging the seat frame. The standard
seat has an elongated aperture to work with
seat depths of 12-15", and custom seats are
available. The Raz-CAT has 40° of tilt and a
250-lb. user weight capacity.
Twin Headrest Hardware
Twin Headrest Mounting Hardware is truly
universal. A telescoping feature allows
fine positioning without tools. The vertical
stem is 11" (28 cm) long. Hardware can be
optioned with three functions: The Flip+
option allows hardware and headrest to easily
flip backwards, out of the way for transfers.
The Dynamic+ option provides 1" of tone
deflection through the horizontal mount for
the headrest pad. The Forward Flex option
doubles the forward reach of the hardware,
giving it 17" of reach from the backrest.

Bodypoint, Inc.
Evoflex + Belt Extender
The Evoflex Hip Belt is now easier to mount
without compromising user fit. Evoflex’s
stiffened end straps stay upright or pivot out
of the way when you want, and stay where
you put them. Straps won’t twist or fall into
the wheels, thus facilitating transfers and
making it easier to keep the straps clean. A
patented, tapered design improves stability
by allowing a closer fit. With the new Evoflex
Belt Extender, straps can be lengthened up
to 12.5 cm (5") on each side while maintaining
the stiffness of the Evoflex — great
for chairs with contoured seating, thicker
seat cushions or distant mounting points.
Easystand
Bantam Updates
The Bantam line of standers offer sit-to-stand
action that can combine the option

vertical standing, full supine lying, and any
point in between. Check out new flat and
curved lateral options now available across
the entire Bantam line of standers! Lateral
supports can provide excellent midline
positioning for children with limited trunk
control. Easystand’s Web site options make
it easy to configure and generate Bantam
quotes, write a Letter of Medical Necessity,
or request a Bantam demo.
Stealth Products
Diego Pediatric Seating
The Diego system was inspired by the ever-changing complex rehab industry and the need for a pediatric seating system designed for that market. Through the years, Stealth Products has determined that the pediatric end user needs a modular growth seating system. The manufacturer began to look into how it could incorporate sound positioning features into a next-generation seating system that was not just a scaled-down version of an adult seat, but one designed specifically for a smaller user. Those are the advantages and benefits of Diego.
