Introducing the new MatrX Elite E2 Back Support. Invacare and Motion Concept’s latest innovation in seating. Offering maximum postural support for those who have positioning needs, the MatrX Elite E2 back system provides a safe, comfortable and supported sitting posture.
The updated Easy Fit hardware (included with each backrest at time of order) and pin assembly function offers more scope and flexibility when interfacing with backrest frames, allowing backrest obstacles such as armrests to be avoided. The backrest also can be adjusted whilst the client is seated in the chair. A significantly increased range of sizes now also enables fitting to a much wider range of manual and power chairs.
The innovative – ‘Ripple Foam’ technology combined with the mesh cover fabric provides enhanced airflow for improved temperature control as well as enhanced immersion. Manufactured using a high quality, high resilience foam, the ripple profile provides the spinal area with enhanced immersion and helps to reduce shear forces.
These features combine to make one of the most comfortable back supports available.
To further support clinical and technical functionality, the new MatrX Elite E2 back shell now incorporates much more versatility for mounting laterals, harnesses and head support bracketry. Laterals can be mounted on the inner or outer of the backrest shell and are available in fixed or swing away options giving more versatility for managing postural issues and access for side transfer. The MatrX E2 backrest range is also compatible with Bodypoint shoulder harness back guides, as well as MatrX Elan head rests.
A range of alternative mounting hardware is also available, such as fixed mini and easy set, splitting to mount as well as heavy duty options..
Ripple foam technology
Invacare's latest innovation in back design - the ripple foam element of the new MatrX E2 back system is cut in such a way as to increase surface area for increased immersion of spinious processes and allow air to circulate through channels for improved temperature control, giving enhanced clinical benefit and improved comfort.
PSIS Backbone support
The new PSIS Sacro Lumbar support targets the pelvis to promote a more upright posture. This helps with pressure redistribution, maintaining good respiratory and digestive function and can enhance the ergonomics of those who self-propel, targeting issues of excessive strain and fatigue.
MatrX Elite E2 Back Shell
The New Matrx Elite E2 has a redesigned back shell with cut outs that work in
combination with the ripple foam for improved airflow, vertical slots
for finite adjustment of hardware attachments and a specific coccyx notch.
The backs also come pre-drilled to allow addition of the
'posture flex' abdominal support.
