COORDINATION EXERCISES FOR NEUROMOTOR TRAINING

Orthoses with microprocessor control (232) placed around the joint of a patient (102) are used to perform, and to monitor isometric, range of motion, proprioception, and isotonic exercises of the joint. An orthosis may comprise first, a second body support portions (104) (106) connected by a hinge (...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Orthoses with microprocessor control (232) placed around the joint of a patient (102) are used to perform, and to monitor isometric, range of motion, proprioception, and isotonic exercises of the joint. An orthosis may comprise first, a second body support portions (104) (106) connected by a hinge (110), a resistance applicator (300) to resist relative movement between the body support portions, a strain or position sensor (230) (744) for sensing the strain applied to or the relative position of the orthosis, digital microprocessor based controller (232) permitting programming, monitoring, and evaluation of exercises to provide a comprehensive program for the rehabilitation of an injured or weakened joint. La présente invention concerne une orthèse avec commande par microprocesseur qui, placée autour de l'articulation d'un patient, permet d'exécuter sous surveillance des exercices isométriques, isotoniques, et visant à améliorer l'amplitude des mouvements et la proprioception. L'emploi de diverses pièces améliorées a conduit à l'élaboration d'une orthèse plus simple à utiliser qui, grâce à une interaction plus efficace avec le module de commande, permet à moindre coût de surveiller un éventail plus large de mouvements et d'évaluer correctement les exercices. Des moyens efficaces de programmation, de surveillance et d'évaluation des exercices autorisent la mise en oeuvre d'un programme complet de rééducation fonctionnelle pour une articulation blessée ou affaiblie.
