Many wheelchairs have powered elevating legrests that permit the user to raise their feet to a comfortable height for better circulation and reduced swelling. Some models include an extra calf pad for comfort, but the main advantage of this type of legrest is that it can be elevated and then lowered in a single movement. This can be especially beneficial for those who suffer from poor knee flexion or arthritic conditions as it allows the user to maintain an extended (knee straight) position. The other type of legrest is referred to as an articulating or articulating legrest. It differs from the standard legrest for wheelchairs in that it can be positioned at a number of angles. This makes it an excellent choice for people who have trouble with the angle of their knee when lowering or raising the footplate. The articulation changes the distance between the knee and footplate when it's in different positions. This means that the footplate will be larger when it's elevated compared to when it's lower. The legrests that articulate are more expensive because they are powered. They are available on wheelchairs that are more specialized. This is because of the additional components required to power this type of legrest, which includes a motor and actuator. These extra parts increase the weight of the wheelchair, making it difficult to maneuver in tight spaces. There are two primary kinds of wheelchairs that have elevating legrests, swing away and centre mount. Both have their advantages and disadvantages but it really comes down to your personal preference and the needs of the individual user. Swing away legrests can be placed on either side of the chair for greater mobility. However, they are more susceptible to damage due to the fact that the actuator is located just outside the legrest. This is the place where it is susceptible to being thrown over by other people and items in the room. The centre mount legrests are a safer option since they are positioned in the middle of the wheelchair. They are also less likely to be struck. However, they don't offer as many positioning options and it is also worth mentioning that the centre mount could be a visual barrier for certain users. It is essential to speak with a healthcare professional regarding your options prior to choosing swing away or centrally mounted legrests so that you can be sure that the correct legrest is selected to meet your requirements.
