Support to Rise Ltd

Support To Rise Limited manufactures a recovery aid designed for patients following caesarean section or hysterectomy surgery. The company produces a strap that wraps around the leg just above the knee to assist with mobility during the post-operative period. This device features a handle and an adjustable Velcro closure, allowing users to leverage arm strength to rise from bed. This mechanism aims to reduce strain on abdominal muscles and enhance stability during transitions to a seated position. The strap is engineered for versatility, adapting to both right and left legs, and is constructed from durable polyester tape, supportive rubber foam, and a reliable buckle. It is available in small, medium, and large sizes to accommodate different leg circumferences. The product has undergone a clinical evaluation study with the Health Innovation Hub Ireland, receiving positive feedback from clinicians including midwives, occupational therapists, and physiotherapists. The company states that the strap supports early recovery after caesarean procedures by facilitating controlled movements and minimizing discomfort associated with traditional rising methods.
