The set of automated couches for mechanotherapy “Newtonic” is a system of 8 couches of different orientation, which are designed for active-passive gymnastics in outpatient or inpatient conditions, for the restoration and implementation of physical therapy programs, for the restoration and treatment of a number of major diseases of the musculoskeletal system. The set of automated couches is also aimed at restoring motor activity after a Covid-19 infection and solving some problems in the older age group who have problems with movement and posture, as well as with motor functions that are altered or impaired.
The principle of operation of the couch is based on smooth and repetitive movements of one or two parts, which allows you to perform the exercises correctly. The fixed part is the support. Stretching exercises, strength exercises, passive exercises and massage can be performed on a set of 8 couches. Each couch is designed to perform a special type of exercise. The patient exercises sequentially on each of the 8 couches for 1 hour, while receiving a complex load on all parts of the body.:
Multifunctionality of a set of couches for mechanotherapy “Newtonic”
One of the features of this kit is that it is a whole complex that combines 8 multidirectional functional systems. Since they are multidirectional and united into a single kinematic chain, passing from one couch to another, the complex is able to provide various types of recovery in various muscle groups, as well as provide a whole training process for people with impaired motor activity, as well as for a number of weakened patients who, after a long period of rehabilitation, move weakly or do not they have the ability to carry out the rehabilitation process in a standing or sitting position. In addition, a complex of 8 automated couches finds its place in health resorts, where 80% of visitors are the older age group, which has a number of restrictions in standing movements when using classical methods of physical therapy. The risks of falling, instability in posture, balance disorder, gait disorder – all this can actively lead to the fact that the complex of 8 Newtonic couches is most indicated for these groups of patients, since the rehabilitation process will be performed in a lying or sitting position, which do not have the above risks.
Automation of medical and preventive processes
Another feature of this set of automated couches for mechanotherapy is the automation of therapeutic and preventive processes. When using the complex, it becomes possible to increase the flow of patients and reduce the amount of workload on existing staff without increasing the staff of the institution. Thus, a specialist in the field of physical therapy, rehabilitation treatment or in the field of preventive treatment has a tool that allows him to effortlessly carry out rehabilitation, rehabilitation, preventive processes with a greater degree of intensity and with greater throughput. For example, a complex of 8 automated couches simultaneously automatically undergo the wellness process of 8 patients. Thus, during the working shift, the system can provide a rehabilitation process for 64-70 people who undergo a full cycle.
Solving the problem of shortage of qualified personnel
In addition to automating medical and preventive processes, a set of automated Newtonic couches makes it possible to alleviate (solve) an acute problem – the lack of qualified personnel. A highly qualified instructor is often unavailable due to the increase in the number of sanatoriums. The complex works according to programmed programs from simple programs to therapeutic and restorative. Thus, it can reduce the dependence of the management of the sanatorium complexes on the staff itself. That is, the tasks for the staff and the requirements for it are relatively less, and at the same time, the throughput of the rehabilitation process increases. It is important to note that when using a set of Newtonic couches, an element of additional socialization is included when patients work in small groups and quickly master the mechanized system.
