The ZeroG® Gait and Balance System by Aretech protects patients from falls while providing dynamic body-weight support as patients practice walking, balance tasks, sit-to-stand maneuvers and even stairs. Because ZeroG is mounted to an overhead track, there are no barriers between the patient and therapist. With ZeroG, patients can begin rehabilitation in a safe, controlled environment.
It can provide constant unloading, up to 95% of a client’s body weight, during movements and can be changed by pounds to alter therapy intensity. The ZeroG has a programmed sensor that anticipates and reacts to patient movements for fall protection during sessions. Real-time visual biofeedback is also provided using interactive balance training modules and games. Games built into the ZeroG software make therapy fun yet cognitively challenging.
Balance recovery involving rapid compensatory stepping is essential to prevent falling. As the first technology to apply perturbations in a safe and controlled manner, ZeroG offers TRiP (training responses in postural rehabilitation) balance training during ambulation or stationary activities to improve stability and reduce risk of falls. Training sessions with the ZeroG can include sit to stands, crawling, overground walking, reaching tasks, balance training, and stair activities.
