The Matrx Elan headrest designed by Invacare is compact, lightweight and adjustable. Offering superb support and comfort, the Matrx Elan features highly adjustable hardware to help users configure it to suit their individual needs. The innovative hardware on the Elan headrest has six points of adjustment to provide infinite positioning opportunities, including a swing away function, therefore meeting user needs. The headrests can be set up quickly and effectively with a single tool while the multi-disk locking feature provides superior holding strength and reliability. The headrest is also available in a full range of Paediatric through to adult applications.
It is easy to change the headrest position thanks to its tool-less adjustment levers. There are two post options available, the standard adult (380 mm) or the mini (280 mm), which can be fitted retroactively to Matrx receivers and are compatible with several other headrest receivers on the market. The Matrx Elan also features dual-density foam that provides immersion, comfort, and protection for the user and prevents bottoming out. The Invacare Matrx pads are 45% lighter than most other pads on the market and surround the edges of the backing plates.
