ABSTRACT:
Custodial protective structure for severely handicapped children subject to involuntary spastic responses is disclosed. A body support, formed from an elastically resilient material such as foamed rubber or vinyl, provides a body mold cavity establishing relaxed positional support and provides limited yielding in the event of seizure. A stabilizer holds the body support to limit longitudinal yielding and prevent asymmetric twisting of the body support while allowing access for handling and therapy; the stabilizer framework facilitates canting of the structure or mounting for swinging movement.
