ROBOGAIT

RoboGait® is an advanced gait system that offers the patient a natural physiological gait pattern through a computer-controlled robotic orthosis.

While the traditional treatment has been performed by two or three physiotherapists with parallel bars and a method that requires absolute power, now an effective treatment can be performed by a single user thanks to the robotic rehabilitation systems.

WHAT CAN ROBOGAIT DO?

  • What are the benefits of RoboGait?
RoboGait is a robot-assisted gait therapy device used to accelerate the treatment process to regain and improve the walking ability. The therapy performed with RoboGait is aimed to achieve the typical gait pattern of the lower limb, to transfer weight in a controlled manner and to activate the neuronal pathway. The visual motivation system creates a plasticity effect.

  • Which patients are suitable for RoboGait, who can benefit from the device?
It is suitable for patients with orthopaedic and neuronal disorders such as hemiplegia, paraplegia, CP, CVE, Parkinson's, traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, stroke, hip arthroplasty, and prosthesis after amputation.
  • Which patients cannot use the device?
RoboGait is not suitable for use in cases of hypertension, hypotension, severe osteoporosis, new CVE, patients with no tilted table experience, patients with circulatory problems, pregnant women or women suspected to be pregnant, patients with acute lower extremity disproportion, severe athetoid conditions.

ROBOGAIT SPECIFICATIONS

Maximum weight: 140 kg

Maximum height: 200 cm

  • Is a separate apparatus required for pediatric patients?

No, it is not required. It is possible to treat both adult and pediatric patients with a single orthosis.

  • Is there an age limit for children?
No, there is not. Any patient in the appropriate profile with a femur length of 20 cm and above can be treated with the device.

  • Is the treatment with RoboGait provide full recovery?
Robot-assisted gait therapy is part of other treatments performed on the patient. It is aimed to help the treatment based on the patient’s condition. Periodic evaluations are made to get maximum efficiency for the patient.

  • Is there a recommended session time?
Minimum 20 minutes and a maximum of 45 minutes is recommended.

  • How many patients can be treated in one day?
A maximum of 16 patients can be treated based on the office hours of the centre and the session durations.

  • Is there a maximum daily operation time for the device?
There is no maximum operation time for daily use.
