Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system for supporting weight-bearing therapies of a person comprising a moveable support unit, at least a first drive associated with the moveable support unit, an actuator attached to the moveable support unit, a first sensor, a second sensor, a control system configured to receive signals from the first and second sensors, the control system in combination with at least one of the first or second sensors, provides dynamic form of protection wherein upon sensing a fall as a change in an output from one of the first or second sensors, the control system dynamically adjusts the medical force applied to the person via a strap, a drum and a second drive, the second drive being included in the actuator, and a database for storing data representative of the operation of the system for supporting weight-bearing therapies of the person.
