Abilities not used will gradually fade away. It is important to take advantage of all activation possibilities. Etac Prio is the only multifunctional wheelchair that offers a dynamic pelvic support. A support that deactivates while resting and reactivates in the active position. This is only one example of Prio´s innovative functions that actually improve sitting tolerance over time. By supportive and shaping efforts you can improve users ability to be active and mobile. Use your knowledge to create the right shape and support - with the user seated in the wheelchair. We call this Ability Based Seating™. Let’s shape up!
The support is dynamic
The pelvic strap is height adjustable for precise setting. Reclining the back will automatically reduce the strap tension and retighten when the back is brought to an upright position. The ideal combination for activity and resting.
Sculpture the shape
Start by setting the height. The back support is contoured by adjusting the straps. The protecting shields distribute the pressure and the soft back cushion will be perfectly sculptured.
Traditional head support
The head support with turtle stem is adjustable in both height, depth and sideways. The head can be positioned in front of the trunk. This puts demands on the depth adjustment of the head support. Can be equipped with a memory function to ensure correct adjustment.
Activity is as important as resting
Narrow wheel assembly (total width), low product weight and premium balancing options are features making Prio users more active and mobile.
