Assistive Product KT Motion

Product Type:

Muscle stimulator, nerve stimulator

Areas of Application:

  • stimulating paralyzed or atrophied muscles to contract
  • triggering movements

Indications:

  • neurological illnesses
  • muscle atrophy due to inactivity
  • muscle atrophy following nerve injuries
  • peripheral paralysis
  • muscular imbalance
  • orthopaedic illnesses
  • pain

Contraindications:

  • Pacemakers and electrically operated implants
  • Pregnancy
  • Skin defects, inflammation or tumors in the electrode contact area
  • Status epilepticus
  • Febrile infections
  • Lack of patient compliance in home use

Description:

After a stroke or accident, many patients are restricted in their mobility due to paralysis and spasticity. Even after rehabilitation, regular training of lost movement sequences is usually necessary. KT Motion uses functional electrical stimulation to support patients with their exercises at home. Various muscles are stimulated via adhesive electrodes on the skin. The device promotes the compensation of missing functions in cases of central and peripheral paralysis. Up to four muscle groups can be stimulated and complex movements relevant to everyday life can be performed in a targeted manner. The electrical impulses activate the affected muscles and provide the nervous system with stimuli to initiate functional movements. With the dynamic and intuitive sensor control, patients can determine when, how long and how intensively they want to perform the movements.

Features / Components:

  • 4 stimulation channels, 2 of which have an EMG function
  • Biofeedback
  • Exponential current
  • FES with sensor for dynamic intensity control (DIS)
  • EMG-triggered multi-channel stimulation to trigger functional movements
  • Dynamic control of stimulation intensity enables everyday movements and supports task-oriented training
  • Contralateral control: Patient controls duration and intensity of stimulation via bending switch on the healthy hand - affected hand follows the movement
