Product Details

SThe CAT I™ standing frame is designed specifically for children to adopt an upright posture safely and comfortably. By moving into a supported standing position, children benefit from improved access to their environment, stimulation of physical and psychological development, and enhanced physiological processes such as circulation and oxygenation.

Its thoughtfully engineered design makes it suitable for therapy settings or home-use, offering stability, comfort and ease of use.

 

Features:

  • Adjustable tilt mechanism — Allows a tilt range from 25° to 85°, even while the child is already in the device, enabling gradual transitions from prone or semi-upright to full standing.
  • Gas spring assist — A quiet, smooth gas spring supports the tilt adjustment, simplifying the caregiver’s task and reducing disturbance. 
  • Secure postural support system — The frame includes extensive belts and supports for chest, pelvis and feet, helping maintain correct alignment and giving the child a sense of security.
  • Breathable, hypoallergenic upholstery — Upholstered with 3D spacer fabric that helps keep skin dry and comfortable for longer use.
  • Stable, eco-friendly construction — Built with a sturdy frame for stability and made using environmentally friendly materials, often hand-painted to add child-friendly appeal.
  • Compact mobility — Equipped with castors for easy repositioning in therapy rooms or home environments (depending on configuration) allows for flexible usage.
  • Adjustable supports — The height, width and depth of chest and pelvic supports, as well as footrests, are adjustable to suit the child’s size and therapy needs.
  • Child-friendly design touches — From hand-painted details to modern finishings, the CAT I™ delivers therapeutic functionality without appearing overly clinical.

 

Indications:

It is recommended in the following cases:

  • Cerebral palsy (CP) – various types and forms.
  • Brain and spinal cord injuries of various etiologies with limb paresis, severe balance disturbances, and coordination impairments.
  • Demyelinating diseases (multiple sclerosis – MS, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – ALS, and others).
  • Meningocele.
  • Muscle diseases with paresis and paralysis (including dystrophy, myasthenia gravis, polymyositis).
  • Genetic syndromes with limb paresis.
  • Degenerative and metabolic diseases of the nervous system.
  • Degenerative and rheumatic joint diseases.
  • Other diseases with limb paresis, paralysis, and musculoskeletal impairments.
  • After injuries, following traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries with limb paresis and paralysis, particularly with quadriplegia (as part of the rehabilitation process or as permanent orthopaedic support).

 

People with significant flexion in the hip or knee joints, as well as those with ankle joint contractures, may not be able to use the stander. Caution should be taken to ensure that the position in the device does not cause excessive pressure or stretching of the diseased areas of the body. In such cases, standing therapy may be contraindicated until a greater range of motion is achieved in the contracted joints.

For individuals with impaired circulatory system (resting arterial hypertension above 200/110 mmHg, pulmonary hypertension, heart rhythm disorders, moderate stage of heart valve disease); respiratory system (unstable asthma) and unstable metabolic disorders, close monitoring of the user during the standing position is necessary to prevent serious complications. This includes particularly monitoring blood pressure, heart rate, and any symptoms of orthostatic hypertension.
