(PRWEB) November 1, 2008 -- The EasyStand Bantam is the new pediatric stander by Altimate Medical. By integrating a supine option into the sit-to-stand stander, the child has even more positioning options. The Bantam is available in two different seating systems: standard planar seating or optional comfy-style seating. It comes in two sizes, Extra Small for kids 28"-40" tall and Small for kids 36"-54" tall.

The Bantam has other noteworthy options available, including a supportive Shadow Tray that follows the child from sitting to standing, and a hand-operated hydraulic pump for independent standing. Mark Schmitt, Sales and Marketing Director at Altimate Medical, states, "We designed the Bantam with the child in mind. With options like supine positioning, different seating systems, and the Shadow Tray, a custom fit is achievable for even the most challenging kids." A standard unit includes blue frame, flat planar seat and back, chest strap, kneepads, footplates, front wheels and rear level glides.
