Product Description

The Meywalk Mk4 is the newest addition to the Meyland-Smith line of dynamic spring assist ambulation devices offered by Pacific Rehab in the USA. The distinguishing feature of the Meywalk MK4 is the Dynamic Saddle Seat- a suspended seat that allows for the natural motion of hip rotation and then gently helps to return the user back to their original starting position. The seat also has a rear stop to prevent the user from backing out of the seat.

The Mk4, like the other gait trainers in the Meywalk line, moves up and down with each step using a Dual Spring Assist System. The spring compresses on the weight bearing side facilitating heel strike to foot flat to toe off. The spring expands on the non-weight bearing side offering a lift assist for the swing through phase of the gait pattern. The Lever Lift Swing Bar allows caregivers to lower the seat unit to let the user in and out of the system at a seated wheel chair height. This feature minimizes strain on caregivers and ensures safety during transfers. Parking Brakes ensure the gait trainer does not move during transfers. Handlebars are angle adjustable for optimal upper extremity (arm) support. The simple design and tool free adjustments are appreciated by caregivers and therapists alike.

The MK4 is offered in two sizes Medium and Large accommodating user inseam measurements from 23.6 in.- 41 in. (60-104cm). Maximum weight capacity is 285 lbs. (130 kg) for both sizes. The Meywalk Mk 4 is appropriate for people with mild to moderate levels of physical involvement.

In the second dropdown box above labeled Add Accessories?, you will have the opportunity to purchase the Drag Brakes or the Non-Reverse Brakes and Anti-Tippers. Drag Brakes provide resistance to the forward motion of the gait trainer and slows the user’s walking speed. This can help improve a user’s postural control and steering during walking. Non-Reverse Brakes prevent the gait trainer from rolling backwards or from being pushed backwards by the user. This can be important on inclines. It can also be important for users who tend to push backwards in the gait trainer due to high extensor tone. Anti-Tippers are included with Non-Reverse Brakes for improved safety.

In the third dropdown box above labeled Front Swivel Wheel, you will have the opportunity to purchase Front Caster Directional Swivel Locks. This option prevents the casters from swiveling so the gait trainer moves forward in a straight line. This feature is great for beginners and users who have difficulty steering due to motor control issues. Lock is easily engaged/disengaged.

An upright standing position is beneficial for developing and improving joint integrity, strength, endurance, and overall organ system function. Being upright also contributes to a person’s overall sense of well-being. Gait-training can help people with special needs gain greater independence in mobility skills. This can allow them to more easily interact with their environment and other people.
