EasyStand PK101 Bantam – Extra Small Packages, [Minimum Support Package] Standing Frame for Disability Rehab Care

EasyStand is a brand established by Altimate Medical — that leads in manufacturing reliable standing frames. The use of Bantam stander ensures improvement in bone density, strengthens the cardiovascular system and improves range of motion. It is used by healthcare experts in different medical spaces including hospitals, rehab treatment centers and other health care setups. It is the only sit to stand stander that combines the option of supine positioning to create infinite positioning possibilities. The medical standing frame provides 50 positioning style and support options that help keep the most challenging cases safe, aligned and secure.

The EasyStand Bantam is the only standing frame to combine a sit-to-stand transition with the added function of an supine stander. By alternating positions, a child can tolerate standing for a longer period of time. Also, when it is safer and easier for a caregiver to transfer and stand a child, the child will stand more often, increasing standing compliance. The Bantam fits kids from early intervention through elementary school.

The Bantam is the only stander that combines the benefits of sit to stand and the option of supine to create infinite positioning possibilities from 90-90 sitting, fully vertical standing, full supine lying and anywhere in between. No other stander can provide the amount of positioning that is possible with the EasyStand Bantam.

Hip-Knee Flexion Transfers

• Allows standing pivot transfers, lateral seat-to-seat, supine flat-to-load, supine with hip and knee flexion transfers, or any position in between
• Compatible with patient lifts
• Each child is different and the Bantam provides choices when transferring

Gradual Range of Motion with Hip-Knee Flexion

• Can start in a hip-knee flexion position and gradually increase lower extremity extension
  By maintaining a sustained, weight-bearing stretch throughout the standing session, range of motion (ROM) can increase over time for many children

Full Support with Sit to Stand

• Full body support system with foot plates, knee pads (anterior), seat (posterior) and chest pad (anterior) that supports the individual in all positions from sitting, supine, and standing
• Children appear to adapt more quickly to standing and weight-bearing when using a sit to stand device due to the extra support and sense of security

Accommodating Contractures

• Adjustability creates the opportunity to stand children with positioning challenges
• No special modifications are needed to accommodate children with contractures and leg length discrepancies
• Match the hip and knee flexion of the child and then adjust as range of motion in the hips and knees improves

Advantage

Upright Standing

• Upright standing is a natural position with the head, hips, knees and ankles all in vertical alignment
• When a child stands upright, they are likely to feel more balanced and are in an optimal position to allow strengthening of the neck muscles
• The option to easily go from upright to supine encourages longer periods of standing, especially when loss of head control begins

Custom Fit for Better Standing

• Modular design works for children who require minimal positioning and has options for those who require maximum positioning and support
• Over 50 positioning and support options that help keep the most challenging cases safe, aligned and secure
• Tool free adjustments

Positioning/Activity Chair Capabilities

• Can do anterior tilt positioning, posterior tilt in space, and a true full recline similar to positioning/activity chairs
• Offers terrific pelvic support and stability by keeping the child positioned in the seat with knee pads, hip supports, and lap belts
• More position changes with fewer transfers means less lifting and decreased risk of injury for caregivers

Feeding Chair Possibilities

• Sitting upright is often not the best position for head control when feeding and partial or supine standing can be the answer
• Provides many position options including sitting, tilt, recline, and standing to find the optimal feeding position

SIT + STAND+ SUPINE

Inclusion in School and Home

• The child can stand when others are standing, sit when they are sitting, and use the stander under the same tables, up next to the white board or with other educational tools
• Serves as a positioning, feeding, or activity chair both in school and at home
• Swing-away, angle adjustable tray is a perfect surface for work, play, communications, nutrition, and sensory activities

Plenty of Growth

• The Bantam extra small has up to 12″ of height growth and the Bantam small/medium both have up to 18″ of height growth

• Seat to Foot Plate Range: extra small/small is 4.5″-16.5″, medium is 7″-18.5″
