New stroke studies prove therapy benefits of the MOTOmed Movement Therapy in stroke rehabilitation. Two interesting studies have recently been published on the use of MOTOmed in stroke rehab:

·         The study "Quantitative evaluation of the effect on post stroke spasticity and motor control of repetitive training with an arm trainer" showed that training with the MOTOmed arm trainer can improve motor power and functional gain, whereas spasticity can be diminished.

·         The study "Cyclic movement training of the lower limb in stroke rehabilitation" investigated the effect of the MOTOmed leg training as home-based therapy device in stroke rehabilitation with very positive results for gait therapy.

If you are interested in the complete studies, please do not hesitate to request them free of charge. susanne@motomed.com.

This feature can be used on the MOTOmed viva2 and gracile 12.
With the new chip card system a chip card for every patient can be specifically personalized with patient related data and MOTOmed training data. Every single chip card offers saving capacity for approx. 100 training sessions. Afterwards the training data can be saved, analyzed and documented with the data analysis program "sam1".
 
With the training analysis program sam1 training data which is saved on the chip card can be transferred to the computer and can then be analyzed, documented and printed. Training motivation and fun can be increased. The patient will be more successful through an exact analysis and a perfect training optimization. Documentation is simply displayed and easy to understand.
