Description

Ki Mobility Axiom wheelchair backrest

Axiom Posterior Back

The Axiom Posterior Back is designed for wheelchair users who need reliable posterior trunk support without feeling over-restricted. It combines a shaped back shell, quality foam, adjustable lumbar support and compact mounting hardware to create a secure, comfortable backrest for everyday use.

This product can be purchased online where the correct size is known. If you are unsure about size, support level, chair compatibility or posture needs, Younique Healthcare can help before you order.

Everyday posterior support

Shaped support to help position the lumbar spine while still allowing movement for daily wheelchair use.

Adjustable fit

Height, depth, width and angle adjustment help the backrest fit both the wheelchair and the individual user more accurately.

Compact DEX hardware

DEX hardware is designed to use minimal space on the wheelchair back posts while allowing straightforward fitting and adjustment.

Comfortable construction

High-resiliency foam and durable cover materials help balance comfort, support and day-to-day durability.

Who is it suitable for?

The Axiom Posterior Back may suit wheelchair users who need improved back support, comfort and seating stability, but who do not require the deeper lateral support of a posterior lateral or deep lateral backrest.

  • Users who need improved posterior trunk support
  • Active wheelchair users who still need freedom of movement
  • Manual or powered wheelchair users needing a more supportive backrest
  • People who need a cleaner, more adjustable alternative to a basic sling back
  • Wheelchair setups where backrest position, depth and angle need fine tuning

Assessment note

Wheelchair backrests affect posture, pressure, propulsion, transfers and comfort. If there is pain, asymmetry, pelvic instability, scoliosis, pressure risk or a complex seating history, we recommend seeking advice before ordering.

Younique Healthcare can help with product selection, compatibility, seating assessment and quote support where needed.

Choosing the right Axiom backrest

The Posterior Back is part of the wider Axiom Back range. It is generally chosen where the user needs improved posterior support but does not need the increased lateral contour of the Posterior Lateral, Lateral or Deep Lateral models.

Choose Posterior Back when

  • The user needs improved back support
  • Freedom of movement remains important
  • Deep lateral trunk control is not required
  • The chair needs a cleaner, adjustable backrest setup

Ask us first when

  • There is significant postural asymmetry
  • The user leans strongly to one side
  • There is pressure risk or pain
  • You are unsure which Axiom contour is right

Frequently asked questions

Can I order this online?

Yes, where the correct size and setup are already known. If you are unsure, contact Younique Healthcare before ordering.

Is this the same as the Axiom Posterior Lateral Back?

No. The Posterior Back provides posterior support with less lateral contour. The Posterior Lateral Back provides more side support for users needing greater trunk positioning.

Will it fit my wheelchair?

Compatibility depends on the wheelchair frame, back post size, seat width, existing seating setup and the user’s posture. We can help check this before purchase.

Do I need an assessment?

If this is a like-for-like replacement and the size is known, an assessment may not be needed. If posture, comfort, pressure or fitting is uncertain, advice is recommended.
