materials

In the manufacture of chairs with sanitary equipment, metals, plastics, polymeric materials, rubber, etc. are used. All materials must be hypoallergenic and at the same time chemically resistant in order to allow repeated hygienic treatment.

Methods or rules of use

When choosing a toilet seat, many factors are taken into account, but they all fit into two broad categories: purpose of use and size. Based on the purpose of use, the type of toilet seat is selected, in fact.

Toilet seat type
If an elderly person needs a toilet chair, who finds it difficult to overcome the distance from the bed to the toilet room, you can consider a bedside version of the classic folding model with four legs. If there is a need to move the toilet chair from one room to another, then a toilet chair on wheels is better suited. Patients who are bedridden and unable to transfer to a toilet chair unaided are recommended a chair with reclining armrests as they make it easier for the caregiver to transfer. With sufficient mobility of the patient, it is possible to use the toilet chair as a support frame that runs over a conventional toilet bowl. In this case, a person gets rid of the need to sit down and get up in the toilet room. In case of violations of the functions of the musculoskeletal system, when the patient constantly uses a wheelchair, you can consider the option of a wheelchair with sanitary equipment. In this case, the stroller can also be used as a shower chair.

The weight of the patient is the primary factor to consider when choosing a specific toilet chair model. Based on the maximum allowable load, toilet chairs are divided into two categories: traditional, with an average load of up to 120 kg, and reinforced with a load capacity of up to 200 kg and an extended seat. If the weight of the patient approaches the maximum load capacity of a traditional toilet chair, it is better to consider a model with a reinforced frame to avoid injury associated with the risk of deformation and chair fall.

seat height
Most toilet chairs are height-adjustable, allowing you to set the optimum seat level for your particular patient. It is important to remember that with a properly adjusted seat height, the patient's legs in the toilet chair are bent at 90 degrees and the feet are firmly planted on the floor, and the knees and hips are at the same level. It is this posture that provides balance and stability. If the seat is set too high, the patient's hips will rise above the knees and the feet will not reach the floor. If the seat is set too low, the knees will be higher than the hips. In both cases, the risk of the patient falling from the toilet chair increases. You can calculate the optimal seat height in numerical terms as follows: you need to measure the distance from the floor to the hip of the patient in a sitting position; the resulting value should be equal to the distance from the floor to the upper level of the seat of the toilet chair.

armrests
The presence of armrests makes it easier to get up from the toilet chair, so when considering this factor, the patient's physical condition and the need for additional support when lifting should be taken into account. The functionality of the armrests is important for facilitating the process of transplanting into the chair (both if the patient is transplanted himself or if he is moved by an attendant) - in this sense, folding armrests provide the best access to the chair.

Shape and size of sanitary fittings
On most models of toilet chairs, a removable round-shaped bucket is installed, which is also a toilet slot. Most often, the round shape of the slot does not cause complaints from patients, however, men may find sanitary equipment with a horseshoe-shaped slot more convenient. It is important to ensure that the size of the incision is optimal, especially if the patient has gained or lost weight. If the slot is too wide, then with low muscle tone in the legs, the patient's hips may slip into the bucket. If the slot is too small, there may be hygiene problems, leading to embarrassment, stress, and even refusal to use the toilet seat.

Additional factors
When choosing a toilet seat, the need for its transportation and the level of comfort required are also taken into account. Transportation of the toilet chair is greatly facilitated by the folding frame. An increased level of comfort is provided by a soft covering of the back and armrests, the presence of removable footrests and a headrest. In addition, it is worth considering who will clean the toilet. If the patient has to do this on their own, it is worth considering the option of a chair equipped with a dry closet, as this will eliminate the need for frequent cleaning of the vessel.

How to choose chairs with sanitary fittings that will fully meet your needs?

What should be taken into account?

Before purchasing, you should consider such parameters as:

Design. She may be:

• Stationary. Such a chair is not equipped with wheels and may look like a regular stool.
• Mobile, which is equipped with wheels. Some models have large wheels with hoops for self-management by a disabled person.
• Folding chairs can fast and compact fold for storage or transport.

Seating comfort. Proper sitting on a chair-chair with sanitary equipment makes the defecation process comfortable. When positioned correctly, bent legs should form an angle at 90 degrees. The width between the armrests should correspond to the width of the hips of the disabled person divided by two. A plus will be a soft seat upholstered in easily washable materials, such as leatherette.

Armrests. If a disabled person can change himself into a chair, then you can purchase sanitary fixtures with fixed armrests, because they are considered more reliable. But if the transplant needs to be done with the help of a guardian, then it is better to purchase a chair with folding armrests.

Load capacity. This factor is especially important for people with disabilities over 150 kg, as they need to pick up chairs with a reinforced frame and a wide seat. For average patients, ordinary chairs are sufficient.

Sanitary equipment. For defecation, a special removable container made of plastic is used. For women, it is better to use a round shape, and for men, an oval or horseshoe shape is better. Models that are used in the shower can be equipped with small baths for washing.

Brakes. For models with wheels, the presence of a brake system is guarantee of security so they are mandatory.

Colour. White chairs for sanitary procedures are considered traditional, but in the catalog you can find completely black hygienic designs, blue or other colors.
