Dynamic back support
The Dynamic back unit automatically adapts to both small and large trunk extension movements—even reaching a fully reclined position. The wheelchair actively absorbs the forces generated, providing the user with smooth, controlled movement without the risk of sliding.
As the user relaxes, the system gently guides them back to their original seating position, supporting optimal posture and reducing the risk of pressure injuries. This ensures enhanced comfort, safety, and stability throughout every movement.
Gas springs are available in different strengths to match the user’s weight and the intensity of their movements.
When extreme upper body movements are the challenge, the dynamic back support should be assisted with a dynamic seat plate, pelvic stabilizer as well as dynamic leg supports.
Overview of all fully Dynamic Wheelchairs
Various solutions and strenghts
For restless users
For the back solution with 15° angle you can choose between 3 different strengths (80, 120 and 160 N). The standard recline is maintained and can be adjusted in any position. The Dynamic gas spring cannot be blocked. Recommended for stiffness patterns which tend to persist, spasticity, and also for comfort and prevention.
For severe and sudden movement patterns
The back solution with 40° angle is lockable and comes in strengths between 200 to 1300N. The standard back recline can be locked in any position as the dynamic movement is blocked simultaneously, which can be appropriate during transport or positioning. The Dynamic Free gas spring is recommended for severe extension patterns, also for violent and sudden movements.
The locking function has advantages in eating situations and is necessary if the chair is used as a seat during car transport. If you need the locking function but want a smaller angle, Netti can supply the chair with recline limiters.
The choice of strength of the gas spring will be depending on the individual user situation, the user weight and the adjusted angle of the seat. We have made a guide for you, but an individual assessment is always recommended.
For users with a movement pattern that causes hip extensions – and thus risk of sliding out of the seat – please consider a fully Netti Dynamic wheelchair with a dynamic seat unit.
