Danmar Hensinger Head Support

Features of Hensinger Head Support

• Breathing should be improved or maintained at the present level.
• Swallowing/drainage should be improved or maintained at the present level.
• Field of vision/eye contact should be improved or maintained at the present level.
• Head contact areas - Head supports maintain the head in a mid-line position. A portion of the neck/head area that contacts the support is considered the "base area." Determining that base area helps provide support and maximum comfort. Improper base area selection can impede breathing, swallowing, blood flow, and could possibly cause jaw discomfort.
• Body Positioning - Head support must only be used in conjunction with proper trunk support, if trunk support is needed.
• Head control should be evaluated from little or no head control to forward, rear or side-thrusting, and/or random movements.

How to measure Danmar Hensinger Head Supports?

• Take accurate measurements. There are 2 which are needed per the chart provided in the product specifications.
• Take neck circumference and round off to the nearest 1/2".
• Measure vertically between the top of the shoulder to the bottom of the ear lobe and round off to the nearest 1/2". Then subtract 1/2" to allow for ear clearance and head movement.
• Consider all the variables. Some examples are as follows:
  • If a chest support is used with the head support, subtract its thickness from the "B" measurements. Straps or trunk supports that are 1/8" or less should not affect the fit, but anything thicker than 1/8" should be taken under consideration.
  • Decisions as to mounting options should be made, depending on the type of seating system being utilized.
  • Consider additional options for the increased comfort and functional abilities of the person using the headrest, such as size a reducer (Item # 6821, Narrow or Wide) and High Back (Item # 6809).
