The Gait Trainer 3 provides audio cueing and visual biofeedback of step length and step speed
The Biodex Gait Trainer™ 3 is more than a treadmill. It is designed with an instrumented deck that issues both audio cueing and visual biofeedback to prompt patients into their correct gait pattern. Step length, step speed and right-to-left time distribution (step symmetry) are directly addressed; patient footfall is compared to desired footfall step after step, both on the display in real time and documented in an easy to read histogram.
The Biodex Gait Trainer is quiet, non-intimidating and allows the therapist to get in there and treat their patients. Real goals are monitored and progress is reported. Objective documentation, with comparison to age- and gender-based normative data, helps prove need and document outcomes to family, referring physicians and insurance providers.
- Instrumented Deck – the Gait Trainer™ 3 is the only treadmill with an instrumented deck that monitors and records step length, step speed and right-to-left time distribution (step symmetry).
- Open Platform – enables patient access for therapist interaction; easily accommodates BWSTT with the Biodex Unweighing System.
- NEW Software and Larger Display – intuitive navigation, 15.6" touchscreen display for improved user experience. Also accommodates external keyboard and a mouse.
- Audio Cueing and Visual Biofeedback – motivates patients with metronome and biofeedback of footfall, prompting proper gait patterns. Cueing and biofeedback help patients stay on target in each phase of rehabilitation.
- NEW Music-Assisted Therapy Package – Rhythmic Auditory Cueing (RAC) is available with optional music therapy-informed compositions. High-quality recordings use specific musical components and correct beats per minute to facilitate correct movements of gait. Results of music-supported therapy can be documented.
- NEW Microsoft SQL Database – allows clinician to easily store and retrieve patient data, multiple tests per patient. Export to Excel® for reporting and analytics.
- Objective Documentation – lets you quantify patient progress and demonstrate the benefits of treatment. Biodex technology helps accelerate positive patient outcomes, and then lets you prove it.
- Enhanced Normative Data – robust base of healthy population by age and gender for comparative patient assessment.
- Heart Rate Monitoring – Polar® contact hand grips (telemetry compatible) ensures proper training intensity.
- Connect & Engage – system allows connection to larger monitors and projectors to enhance interaction for visually impaired patients.
