Replaces previous SWASH Low Profile.
NOTE: This product should only be fitted by a certified professional.
SWASH® GO uses a padded iliac extension that can be positioned in one of two places: It can be fit immediately above the iliac crest between the crest and the inferior angle of the costal margin, or it can be fit at the level of the ASIS between the iliac crest and the greater trochanter.
The latter is used to minimize any influence towards lumbar flexion when sitting.
SWASH® GO Pelvic Sections, Cuffs, and Uprights are available in sizes 1-6. The uprights for all sizes are 8mm diameter.This increase in diameter offers added strength to manage very high tone, plus it allows cuffs to be completely interchangeable between all sizes.
A complete SWASH orthosis requires 3 parts: a Pelvic Section, Thigh Cuffs, & Uprights. Please order each item separately.
SWASH GO Pelvic section has an aluminum posterior frame that extends from approximately L2/L3 to S1/S2, with an iliac extension.
Uprights are available in two versions: 115° = narrow sitting base / 123° = wide sitting base
