HOW TO ADJUST DONDOLINO
WHILE ADJUSTING THE STANDING FRAME IT IS IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW THREE
PHASES AND IT MUST BE ADJUSTED UNDER THE DIRECT CONTROL OF THE
DOCTOR WHO
PRESCRIBES IT
1ST. PHASE: YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER:
1.the height of the child from under his chest to the ground
is needed to fix the
chest support;
2.the height from the knee-cap to the ground
is needed to fix the knee-pads of
the standing frame;
You can measure while the child is standing or while he is laying.
2ND. PHASE: INITIAL ADJUSTMENT WITHOUT THE CHILD AND CONSIDERING THE
MEASURES THAT YOU MUST MEASURE BEFORE
3RD. PHASE: SUBSEQUENT ADJUSTMENT WITH THE CHILD
Check:
1.that the back strap, once it is closed, is in the middle of the bottom.
The
height of the
arm supports
depends on the position of the back support of the
pelvis;
2.the position of the knee-pads;
3.the position of the heel rests
in width and depth;
4.the position of the table.
It must be fixed controlling the height of the User from
under his elbow to the ground (minimum height). Shouldn’t it be possible to make
this control, you can measure the distance from the bended elbow to his feet while
the User is laying.
5.the vertical alignment of the chest and pelvis
6.
the flexion of the limbs: the vertical position is determined by the front and
back
adjustment of the pelvis support, of the knee-pads and of the heel rests.
WARNINGS : ALL THE ADJUSTABLE PARTS MUST HAVE BEEN WELL LOCKED!!!
Always check that all the adjustments have been correctly fixed in order to avoid any
possible danger to the User.
WARNINGS:
THE ADJUSTMENTS MUST BE ALWAYS CONTROLLED BY THE DOCTOR WHO PRE-
SCRIBES THE AID AND BY THE THERAPIST WHENEVER THEY THINK IT IS NEEDED.
THIS IS IMPORTANT TO OPTIMIZE THE VERTICAL POSITION BECAUSE THE RIGHT
USE OF THE STANDING FRAME CONDITIONS THE FLEXION OF THE USER AND IT
REDUCES HIS RIGIDITY
