Legrests that are powered elevating are a standard feature on many wheelchairs, and enable the user to raise their feet to a comfortable level for improved circulation and reduced swelling. The legrests can be lowered and raised with one motion. Certain models come with a calf cushion for extra comfort. This is particularly beneficial for those suffering from knee flexion or arthritis because it allows the user to remain in an extended (knee straight) position. The other type is an articulating footrest. It differs from a standard legrest for wheelchairs because it is adjustable at various angles. This makes it a great option for those who struggle with knee flexure when lowering or elevating the footplate. The articulation alters the distance between the footplate and knee in various locations, meaning that the footplate is larger when it is elevated than it is when it is lower. The legrests that articulate are more expensive because they are powered. They are found on wheelchairs that are more customized. This is due to the additional components needed to power this kind of legrest, including a motor and actuator. These additional components increases the weight of the chair, making it difficult to maneuver especially in tight spaces. There are two kinds of wheelchairs that have elevating legrests that can be lowered: swing away and center mount. Both have pros and cons and it depends on the personal preference of the user and their requirements. Legrests with a swing can be put on either side of the chair to provide greater mobility. However they are more prone to damage since the actuator is located outside the legrest. This is because it is easily knocked over by other users and objects in the room. Centre mount legrests provide a safer alternative since they are fixed to the central part of the wheelchair and are less likely to be impacted. They do not have as many options for positioning, and may be a hindrance for certain users. It is important to talk to a healthcare professional about your options prior to deciding on swing away or centrally mounted legrests so that you can be sure that the right legrest is chosen for your requirements.
