REHABILITATION BELT FOR IMPROVED SITTING POSTURE IN PATIENTS WITH IMPAIRED CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to a rehabilitation belt for improving a sitting posture of a patient with impaired central nervous system, which comprises: a seat part on which both legs of the patient are placed not to be moved by the body weight; a support part which is eccentrically connected to the seat part to surround and support the legs of the patient; and a fastening part which fastens both ends of the support part. According to the present invention, the rehabilitation belt maintains one leg of a patient with impaired central nervous system, which is extended laterally, at the central position, thereby helping rehabilitation. In addition, since the rehabilitation belt allows the patient to manipulate with non-paralyzed one hand, thus, the patient can put on and put off the rehabilitation belt without others help. Moreover, the rehabilitation belt is easy to carry due to the light weight.
