Q. What makes the Latitude different from a regular wheelchair?
A. Unlike traditional wheelchairs, the Latitude offers tilt-in-space positioning, gentle rocking motion, and Broda’s Comfort Tension Seating® system—all of which improve comfort, pressure relief, and posture over long periods of sitting.

Q. Is the rocking motion always active?
A. No, the Latitude Pedal Rocker Chair’s rocking feature can be enabled or disabled by a caregiver. To activate it, the caregiver secures the rocking handle to the frame while the seat is in an upright or slightly tilted position. The rocking tension can also be adjusted to suit the user. To deactivate, simply release the rocking handle from the frame.

Q. Can users move the chair on their own?
A. Yes! The Latitude features front pivot seat tilt that allows users to pedal the chair with their feet, giving them greater independence if they have limited upper-body strength.

Q. What makes Broda’s Comfort Tension Seating® system unique?
A. Unlike solid or sling-style seating, it uses flexible straps that conform to the body, promoting airflow and reducing pressure for enhanced comfort and skin protection.

Q. What is the difference between a transit and self-propelled wheelchair?
A. A transit wheelchair is designed to be pushed by a caregiver and typically has smaller rear wheels, making it lighter and easier to maneuver. A self-propelled wheelchair has larger rear wheels with hand rims, allowing users to independently move themselves with their hands or feet. A transit wheelchair may also refer to a crash-tested, WC19 certified wheelchair for use in an accessible vehicle.

Q. Can Latitude Pedal Wheelchairs be adjusted for individuals with varying leg lengths or strength?
A. Yes, Broda pedal wheelchairs feature adjustable seat-to-floor heights to accommodate different leg lengths and mobility needs. These adjustments ensure users can comfortably and effectively reach the floor, promoting safe heel strike and efficient self-propulsion.

Q. Is Broda Latitude Wheelchair categorized as geriatric furniture or chairs?
A. No, It is classified as Durable Medical Equipment (DME). According to the FDA, It fall under the Medical Device category, specifically Class I Mechanical Wheelchairs. Additionally, the Veteran’s Health Administration recognizes it as Manual Wheelchairs with Tilt and Recline Functions as part of their Prosthetic Clinical Management Program (PCMP).

Q. What is the proper way to clean and disinfect the Broda Latitude Pedal Wheelchair?
A. It is easy to clean and disinfect. Use one of the following solutions for regular cleaning:

• A mixture of 1 part bleach and 4 parts water, peroxide, or quaternary ammonium at the recommended dilution. Be sure to rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry.
• Alternatively, use a water-based cleaner or the bleach-water mix. Again, rinse and pat dry after cleaning.

Q. What is a pedal wheelchair?
A. A pedal wheelchair is a mobility chair designed for foot propulsion, allowing users to move independently using their legs and/or hands. These wheelchairs typically have a lower seat-to-floor height, making it easier for users to reach the ground and navigate their environment with ease.

Q. What are the benefits of a foot pedal wheelchair?
A. Foot pedal wheelchairs promote active movement and independence, reducing reliance on caregivers for mobility. They can help improve circulation, maintain muscle strength, and reduce fatigue, making them an excellent option for individuals with some lower-body mobility. The ability to self-propel or scoot with both feet and hands provides flexibility based on the user’s strength and endurance.
