Netti 4U Base

Round back tubes with standard dimensions ensure that all kinds of customer-specific seating systems can be supported.

Involuntary movements often cause several challenges for wheelchair users and attendants for example sliding and thus often need of repositioning.

This can be accommodated by including dynamic seating solutions. For the Netti 4U Base the following dynamic options are available:

• Dynamic head support
• Dynamic back support
• Dynamic leg support

If the movement patterns include pelvic movements, we recommend a complete Netti Dynamic System including a dynamic seat unit. For this purpose, we offer the Netti Dynamic Base.

Clinical tests show that dynamic options increase the user’s quality of life giving him the opportunity to spend longer time in the chair in a good seating position thus enabling him to take part in every day life.

By allowing the chair to adapt to the user’s movement, the wear of the chair is also reduced.

A good positioning of the feet is the first step in creating an upright and stable seating position. And even head control is influenced by the leg positioning. Therefor many leg support options are important if you want to create the best possible seating situation allowing the user to socialize and improve respiration.

Netti 4U Base with its many leg support options, is a good choice if you have users with challenges like:

• Pointed foot
• Contractions
• Restless legs

Seat width reduction (2x15 mm) and seat with expansion (2x 12 mm) give room for growth and make the Netti 4U CED economical in use. These options can also be used to create optimum stability and position.
