BTE PrimusRS for Physical and Occupational Therapy
The BTE PrimusRS is a versatile piece of equipment used in physical and occupational therapy settings for various purposes. It offers a wide range of functionalities and features that cater to the rehabilitation needs of patients across different conditions and stages of recovery. Here are some of the primary uses of the BTE PrimusRS:
- Strength Training: The BTE PrimusRS provides adjustable resistance for targeted strength training exercises. Patients can work on improving muscle strength and endurance in specific muscle groups affected by injury, surgery, or neuromuscular conditions.
- Range of Motion (ROM) Exercises: The equipment facilitates passive, active-assisted, and active range of motion exercises for various joints in the body. This helps patients regain or maintain flexibility, mobility, and joint function following injury, surgery, or prolonged immobilization.
- Functional Movement Training: BTE PrimusRS allows patients to perform functional movement patterns that simulate activities of daily living, such as reaching, lifting, pushing, and pulling. This type of training helps improve coordination, balance, and proprioception, enabling patients to perform daily tasks more independently.
- Balance and Stability Training: The equipment can be utilized for balance and stability exercises to enhance proprioception and neuromuscular control. Patients perform exercises on unstable surfaces or with perturbations to challenge their balance and improve their ability to maintain stability in various environments.
- Gait Training: BTE PrimusRS offers features for gait training, including treadmill integration and biofeedback systems. This allows therapists to analyze and improve walking patterns, stride length, cadence, and weight distribution, helping patients regain safe and efficient walking ability.
