Intended purpose
Walking aids for children usually consist of a tubular
frame with four rollers or wheels. They can be fitted with
seats, backrests and pelvic supports and different res-
traint systems, which give children the freedom of mo-
vement so that they are able to move around their li-
ving area independently or with the help of an assistant.
Indication | Contraindication
INDICATION:
Walking aid for children and adolescents for use indoors
to compensate for or improve limited walking ability and
for correction of body posture problems.
Tomaintain/promote/safeguard walking and standing
(gait training).
The objective is to learn active walking or independent
locomotion, to expand a limited radius of action, and to
compensate for gait unsteadiness.
The Trekker GT Kids walker can be pulled behind the
body or pushed in front of the body. As a result, the wal-
king aid increases rear stability when standing and it of-
fers optimal freedom of movement of the legs.
CONTRAINDICATION:
Limitation of mobility in the case of impaired movement/
coordination/balance – but still adequately preserved abi-
lity to walk if the use of other walking aids is not sufficient.
In general, the indication for gait training should be
made under medical/orthopedic supervision. For this re-
ason, prior to the provision of the walking aid, it should
be clarified in this regard whether there are contraindi-
cations regarding the patient.
