Continuous Passive Motion with the ARTROMOT-K3
Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) is a widely used rehabilitation method to enhance post-operative recovery for patients with joint pathologies or those who have undergone knee or hip surgery. The ARTROMOT-K3 by Ormed is a device designed to provide optimal care by reproducing passive and regular joint movement without requiring muscular effort from the patient. This helps reduce complications associated with immobilization, such as joint stiffness, tissue adhesions, and circulatory disorders.
With its programming unit, the ARTROMOT-K3 offers precise adjustment of therapeutic parameters. The range of motion is fully configurable, with knee extension up to -5° and flexion up to 110°. For the hip, extension is adjustable from 0° to 8° and flexion up to 86°. These parameters allow the treatment to be tailored to each patient's condition and rehabilitation goals.
The device is designed for use in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and medical practices. It can be used on patients who have undergone arthrotomy, arthroscopy, joint replacement surgery, ligament reconstruction, or fractures requiring gentle and progressive mobilization. It also plays a crucial role in preventing postoperative complications such as thrombosis or embolisms.
The ARTROMOT-K3 integrates a safety system with an automatic return function in case of excessive patient resistance, ensuring safe and tolerable treatment. The programming unit features a clear display with icons, making it user-friendly for healthcare professionals and patients.
Its comfort is optimized with adjustable supports, ensuring proper leg positioning and adaptable support for different body types. The foot inclination, femur length, and tibia length can be precisely adjusted to fit the patient perfectly. The materials used for skin contact are biocompatible and comply with current medical standards.
The ARTROMOT-K3 is designed for prolonged use with minimal maintenance. It features an easy-cleaning system for effective disinfection between uses and meets stringent medical standards for biocompatibility and electrical safety.
With its intuitive programming, precise adjustments, and optimal safety, the ARTROMOT-K3 is an effective solution for promoting recovery after knee or hip surgery. It enables progressive and painless mobilization, essential for successful rehabilitation and improving the patient's quality of life.
