Technologies applied at cereneo

cereneo neurorehabilitologists use modern robotic systems that allow to work out limbs. To monitor the dynamics of treatment, doctors use motion sensors that help to fix the patient's condition and balance.

Among them are:

• The Armeo Power Exoskeleton. It helps to work out arms, improves muscle tone, increases the amplitude of joints movement.
• The ZeroG System for gait, body movements, and balance coordination. The system supports the patient's body, eliminating the risk of falling.
• The Parker Indego Exoskeleton. It aims to support patients with brain or spinal cord injuries to learn walking again. The robot puts legs in motion, distributing the load and training the balance.
• The Erigo simulator. It maintains a vertical position of the body, and the patient adapts to physical activity. Exercises with Erigo prepare the lower limbs for the next step in restoring walking.
• Lokomat Treadmill Training. This device has different speeds adjustable for legs. A doctor prescribes this therapy to train the patient's brain control walking independently.

Sensor devices and feedback sensors help the doctor to analyze the patient's condition during or after treatment in everyday life.

Stroke treatment

To restore patients after a stroke, clinic doctors use robotic devices in combination with the following types of therapy:

• non-surgical brain stimulation — a method of restoring muscle strength and speech
• speech therapy — training of talking and swallowing function
• neuropsychology — a set of exercises to correct the memory, abstract thinking, attention.

Additionally, a patient is consulted by various specialists who give recommendations for lifestyle correction and develop a maintenance therapy program for home performing.
