In this video, we explore the critical role of early abducted standing with weight bearing for children with cerebral palsy and other developmental disabilities. Discover how Rifton's innovative stander supports healthy hip development with its advanced features and thoughtful design.

Key Highlights:

The Importance of Early Intervention: Learn why early abducted standing is crucial for children with CP, helping maintain hip stability and preventing dislocation and disability.

Research Insights: We discuss the significance of correct femur positioning in the hip socket before age 5, and the potential complications of motor delay and muscle imbalances.

Comprehensive Approach: Explore the interventions for hip dislocation, including weight-bearing activities, Botox, early preventative surgery, and motor training.

Effective Abducted Standing Programs: Discover the benefits of starting an abducted standing program around 1 year of age for maintaining hip stability and range of motion, especially post-corrective hip surgery.

Rifton Stander Features: See how the Rifton stander allows up to 30 degrees of bilateral hip abduction, with adjustable tilt from horizontal to vertical, and provides comfortable, safe use for individuals of all abilities.

Usage Recommendations: Understand the guidelines for healthy hip development, recommending at least one hour per day or 7-10 hours per week of upright standing with hips in maximum tolerated abduction.

Join us as we highlight how the Rifton stander is a game-changer in promoting optimal hip development, comfort, safety, and inclusivity for children with disabilities.
