Rehabilitation exercise - Positioning lock exercises
Description
Fitting the elastic training bands from the training pack to a GH3 or GH3+ ceiling lift locked in position using the Positioning lock gives patients the opportunity to train their arms, shoulders and legs while lying in bed. The combination of the ceiling lift and the elastic training bands makes it possible to set up a kind of fitness center in the patient’s room.
Different bands can be selected to put together customized workouts including both strength and endurance exercises for upper and lower body. It is also possible to use the equipment for supportive training, lifting the pelvis in the bed or supporting the upper body during stomach exercises.
Maintaining the patient’s functional capabilities during a period of hospitalization will help minimize different risks typically associated with long-term bed rest. It will also help the staff because patients are better able to help themselves, which reduces the amount of care they require.
Moreover, basing the training on the ceiling lift suspended above the bed enables patients to exercise and train on their own.
