Amadeo is a device produced for fingers for neurological hand rehabilitation. The Robotic Hand Rehabilitation device aims to improve the functions of patients with limited movement in their hands and fingers. The device allows planning and implementation of the necessary treatment program suitable for each patient’s hands and fingers. Thus, it becomes easier to restore the motor skills of the patient’s fingers and improve the quality of life.
The robotic hand rehabilitation device records the progress of each patient’s treatment process. Thus, it helps the specialists providing the treatment in treatment planning. Depending on the patient’s changing treatment needs, treatment options can be increased. The physician selects and applies the passive, auxiliary or active treatment programs recommended by the device according to the patient’s condition.
- It offers simulation of continuous and ergonomic gripping movement.
- It is applicable for use at all stages of neurological rehabilitation. There are passive therapy, assistive therapy, active and interactive therapy options.
- It measures isometric forces and range of motion.
- It records the progress of the patient’s treatment by providing real-time integrated biofeedback.
- It can be adjusted according to the hand and finger structure of each patient, thus facilitating the planning and implementation of the treatment.
How Does It Work?
Once the finger pads are placed on the fingertips and thumb, automated movement sequences are performed. When the brain is stimulated by hand and finger movements, it begins to regulate or reorganize motor functions. Intensive training of high-frequency grasping movements stimulates the thought process in the patient’s brain. Thus, the neurological connection between the brain and hand is stimulated. Depending on the cause of neurological damage, the patient may undergo passive or active therapy.
During task-oriented training with Amadeo, the demands on motor functions can be continuously increased. The device supports exactly the correct intensity required for the patient to exercise at his/her performance limit.
Amadeo increases both the patient’s motor functions and finger or hand strength. Thus, it reduces spasticity. In this way, the patient is supported in regaining the greatest natural range of motion of his/her hand. Various training and clear feedback evaluations motivate the patient and increase the continuity and success rate of the treatment.
With the Amadeo robotic hand coordination device, the treatment process appropriate to each patient’s body is planned and implemented. It is aimed to restore the patient’s grasping ability and other motor skills in the fingers.
