Leckey Mygo Size 1 Pediatric Standing Device

Description

Key Clinical & Design Features

• Contracture Management: The design allows children with fixed knee and hip contractures of up to 25° to stand fully supported. It achieves this by letting them stand with hips and knees flexed, resulting in a more upright, natural posture.
• Modular Support: Includes a polyurethane (PU) chest pad, hip pad, two knee supports, and a two-piece footplate.
• Anatomical Positioning: It utilizes a V-shaped knee support and knee straps to reduce load-bearing stress on the patella (kneecap). It also works with a pelvic de-rotation hip belt to maintain proper pelvic alignment without necessarily requiring rigid hip laterals.
• Upper Body Mobility: The slim upper chassis design provides ample room for children to move their arms freely, facilitating independent play, learning, and upper-limb functional activities.

Product Overview

Infinite positioning to help kids stand with confidence

Mygo Stander provides the best standing therapy solution on the market – this 3-in-1 stander delivers truly excellent positioning whether a child is in prone, supine or upright. Mygo Stander doesn’t compromise on quality, ensuring children get the support and comfort they need to enjoy standing and the benefits this brings.

Hip, knee and ankle contractures can be accommodated via Mygo Stander’s outstanding adjustability. The footplates and knee supports uniquely move together, taking the strain off the hip flexors, hamstrings and gastrocnemius muscles, ensuring children stand in a more upright functional posture. This linked movement opens up standing therapy to children who were previously unsuitable because of their contractures.

A child’s activity and independence can be increased through using Mygo Stander as it has been designed to improve upper limb function. The ergonomically designed chest pad replicates the shape of the rib cage, allowing the shoulder girdle to freely protract and retract in prone standing. This, combined with Mygo Stander’s lower tray height and a more upright head and chest position, supports significant improvement in the child’s upper limb function. The child has space to move, supporting freer arm movement and an increased ability to carry out everyday activities such as feeding themselves, playing, self-care tasks and communicating with others.

Mygo is a modular stander which can be tailored to meet a child’s specific needs and evolve with them as they grow and their postural support needs and therapy goals change. An extensive range of options and accessories enable an individualised fit, ensuring the best possible posture is achieved.
