Features :
Frames & Prompts
 |
Prompts Mount
Prompts such as arm rests, seat and chest support mount anywhere along the top bar, and are easily removed when a child no longer needs them. Most pediatric walkers don't have these options. |
 |
Height Adjustment
Simple, two-handed height adjustment in 1" increments. For details of each size's adjustment, see Choose Size. |
 |
Frame Folds
Frame fits in your car trunk. The medium and large Pacers fold for transport. Use the two-handed release catch to unlock the frame. The small Pacer will fit most trunks without folding. |
 |
Innovative casters
Innovative casters have separate swivel lock, brake, variable drag, and one-way ratchet control features. Use any combination to control the Pacer's speed and direction. For in depth information on our casters, see Casters. They make our pediatric walker into a true Gait Trainer. |
 |
Easy Rear Access
Easy rear access for transfers. Users can face either direction, so you can use it as a posterior pediatric walker. |

Accessories :
|

Arm Prompts set
Versatile Arm Prompts include height, rotation, angle, lateral proximity, and forward/backward adjustments, to accommodate numerous positioning requirements. Arm Prompts placed at elbow height below the shoulders assist weight-bearing. Arm Prompts are placed at the front of the frame for a forward-leaning posture. Arm Prompts angled upward encourage active upper trunk and head control. Individualized positioning accommodates contractures. |

Chest Prompt
The new, padded Chest Prompt holds the torso at the desired angle. It is available in three sizes, and accommodates a wide range of users. Tilt adjusts forward or backward in 15° increments. One knob adjusts both tilt angle and width. Adjustments can be made while user is in the walker. Chest Prompt stays open for easy transfers. Fit the Chest Prompt snugly to support dependent users, or wrap loosely as a training guide for gaining independent trunk control. Cleanable padding is anti-microbial and repels UV light to stay cool. Fits all earlier models of the Pacer Gait Trainer. |
|

Hip Positioner wtih Handholds
The Hip Positioner swings with a child’s walking motion, allowing the user to shift weight from one leg to the other. Raise the Handholds and shorten the straps to assist weight-bearing. Lower the Handholds and lengthen the straps for use as a safety sling. To keep the child's pelvis in midline and behind the shoulders, attach the anterior straps further back on the frame. The Hip Positioner Pad, sold separately, gives cushioned comfort. Hip Positioner includes one pair of Handholds. Most pediatric walkers do not have this option. |

Hip Positioner Pad
The Hip Positioner Pad slips onto the Hip Positioner, providing the user with additional padded comfort. |
|

Thigh Prompts set
Thigh Prompts swing freely with the user’s stride, and prevent leg scissoring while encouraging weight-bearing. Thigh Prompts are height adjustable in the medial and lateral positions. The inside strap maintains leg separation. The outer curve limits leg abduction. Thigh Prompts can prevent the child from turning within the Pacer frame. Large and small Thigh Prompts are available. This type of prompt makes a gait trainer different from a pediatric walker, because they help develop better walking skills. |

Ankle Prompts Set
Ankle Prompts snap securely onto the frame and have comfortably padded ankle straps. The spring adjusters limit stride length and control stride placement. Strap length adjusts to determine foot separation and prevent scissoring, which is a problem with other pediatric walkers. |
|

Extra Pair of Handholds
The Handholds adjust up and down and can be used in four rotational directions. |

Communication Tray
The Communication Tray is designed to hold small objects and communication devices weighing less than 10 pounds. |
