FROG is a highly adaptable paediatric walker providing support and stability for children with mobility impairments such as cerebral palsy. It facilitates maximum walking opportunities and independence due to its unique features:
The force lift seat with patented weight compensation mechanism enables the child to use the seat function independently and spontaneously. In therapy it avoids lost time and energy transiting in an out of the walker. Easy transition between walking and resting is supported and autonomy increased. FROG users can initiate little ‘pitstops’ at their own convenience and agency.
The front caster control provides the therapist a progressive approach when teaching turning, balancing stability versus agility. Caster swivel limits can be incrementally adjusted for each direction and wheel independently.
The foldable aluminium frame, available in two sizes, is highly adjustable, not only in height, but also width and length. Ergonomically shaped seat, backrest and armrest components in soft PU foam provide comfort for extended activities.
Numerous accessories such as pelvic support, hip stabilisers, anti-tipping guards and friction brakes make FROG particularly versatile and adaptable to the specific needs of their users.
Users can navigate seamless in their environment between different activities/routines such as moving around outdoors and indoors, sitting at the table for meals, family games or studying; with enough support, comfort and safety. FROG can often replace stroller or wheelchair on trips away from home. Moving about independently enables more participation and stimulates mobility, which is important for social development.
