SWASH: Standing, Walking And Sitting Hip Orthosis

SWASH is the first and only orthosis that ensures variable abduction during both extension and flexion to help children with cerebral palsy control scissor gait and sit independently.

Indications

The S.W.A.S.H Orthosis is intended for use by any child whose adduction/internal rotation at the hip joint interferes with function or causes lateral migration of the femoral head. The majority of such children suffer from cerebral palsy, which may be spastic or dystonic.

Dystonia
Hip migration
Scissoring gait interfering with ambulation
Hip adduction which limits independent sitting
