For more information about standards also see
http://at-aust.org/home/assistive_technology/standards.html

TGA

Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).

More Details

* Etac Butterfly glideboard can be used in many situations for transfer from wheelchair to bed, bath chair, car etc.
