Walking trainer (walker) Pacer (Rifton) for disabled people with severe movement disorders, including cerebral palsy, paresis, paralysis and developmental defects. The new Dynamic Pacer with a floating top frame is a revolutionary breakthrough in the world of training equipment and aids for the development of walking skills.
Among other significant innovations, one of the main advances in the design is the ability to move with the patient in the horizontal-lateral and vertical planes without interfering with the natural movement of the body during walking. It is also important to note that the new design allows the Pacer to be used on rough terrain.
Before its appearance, all the existing complex walkers and walking simulators did not allow patients to move more naturally, did not allow them to fully develop the process of walking and maintain its correct pattern.
Walking is a complex function. When we talk about dynamic gait training, we are talking about the often subtle but important movements of the torso and body weight that occur during normal gait. There is a growing belief in the therapeutic community that proper pelvic position combined with dynamic movement is critical to successful learning to walk. A specialized gait trainer helps with correct positioning and provides the dynamic weight bearing and weight transfer needed for a more natural gait pattern.
The Dynamic Pacer has 4 sizes:
K 620 (Distance from heel to elbow when bent is 48-73 cm.)
K 630 (Distance from heel to elbow when bent 61 - 89 cm)
K 640 (Distance from heel to elbow when bent 81 - 119 cm)
K 650 (Distance from heel to elbow when bent 86 - 124 cm)
