Dynamic Anti-Thrust Harness* A
Invacare’s Anti-Thrust Harness rests on top of the seat under the buttocks, with the anterior straps coming between the legs and outward over the thighs, buckling near the proximal hip/thigh. The Anti-Thrust Harness helps to prevent sliding forward in the seat and can reduce the tendency for pelvic rotation, without restricting upper body movement. Made from nylon covered neoprene with adjustable straps. ®
