Case Study: 12-year-old Beth With Cerebral Palsy Uses R82’s Mustang to Support Gait Development
Beth who lives with Cerebral Palsy, has recently begun using R82’s Mustang – an anterior/posterior gait trainer which allows a growing child to develop stepping and walking skills and achieve proper positioning The Mustang is designed to assist gait in a wide range of abilities and is particularly suitable for children with Cerebral Palsy . Offering flexibility and ease of use, it is highly adaptable to cater for a child’s changing needs as they grow. The anterior position is ideal for users unable to fully weight bear on their feet, or if motor skills are reduced and the user needs support around the trunk and pelvis. The posterior position can be used for those children who have improved gait development, more advanced trunk stability and who are capable of bearing their full weight.
