* K.A.T. 1250: Clinical unit with handrails and microprocessor control.
Kinesthetic Ability Trainer
* Designed for a wide variety of patient population from the skilled athlete perfecting his/her form, to the geriatric resident’s prophylactic training to prevent falls.
* Effective balance therapy maximizes the benefits of motor and neurological training in a closed kinetic chain.
* Effectively addresses assessment, motivational and documentation issues regarding neurosensory deficits in orthopedics, geriatrics, and sports
medicine from knee injuries, hip injuries, stroke rehab, shoulder rehab, back problems, vestibular deficiencies to sport specific exercises, allowing early, safe and controlled balance therapy with quantifiable assessment of patient progress.
* An inflatable bladder beneath the platform provides variable, multilevel stability, incorporating actual motion into the assessment equation based on time and distance.
* A sensor on the platform using patented thermal accelerometer technology with no moving parts allows free 360° range of motion and transfers data to a CPU with monitor using K.A.T. for Windows® software.
* DATA system consists of tilt sensor with patented thermal accelerometer technology and KATWIN software.
* The system incorporates built-in training modes or allows for the design of unique, individualized training protocols.
* Positive visual feedback to the patient and the automatic calculation of a balance index provide the necessary motivational tools. Test data are stored for each patient.
