China Supplier Upper Limb Impairment Machines - Isokinetic Training Equipment A8 – Yikang

Multi-joint Isokinetic Strength Testing and Training Equipment A8-2

Isokinetic strength testing and training equipment A8 is an assessment and training machine for six major joints of human. Shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle can get isokinetic, isotonic, isometric, centrifugal, centripetal and continuous passive testing and training.

The training equipment can do assessment, and reports are generated before, during and after testing and training. What’s more, it supports printing and storage functions. The report can be used to assess human functional ability and as a scientific research tool for researchers. Various modes can fit all periods of rehabilitation and the rehabilitation of joints and muscles can achieve the highest level.

How Does the Isokinetic Training Equipment Work?

Isokinetic muscle strength measurement is to evaluate the functional state of muscle by measuring a series of parameters reflecting muscle load during isokinetic movement of limbs. The measurement is objective, accurate, simple and reliable. The human body itself cannot produce isokinetic motion, so it is necessary to fix the limbs on the lever of the instrument. When it moves independently, the speed limiting device of the instrument will adjust the resistance of the lever to the limb at any time according to the strength of the limb, in that way, movement of the limb will maintain the speed at a constant value. Therefore, the greater the strength of the limbs, the greater the resistance of the lever, the stronger the load on the muscles. At this time, measurement on a series of parameters reflecting muscle load can truly reveal the functional state of muscle.

The equipment has a computer, a mechanical speed limiting device, a printer, a seat and some other accessories. It can test various parameters such as torque, optimal force angle, muscle work volume and so on. And besides, it truly reflects muscle strength, muscle explosiveness, endurance, joint mobility, flexibility, stability and many other aspects. This equipment provides accurate and reliable testing, and it also provides various motion modes such as constant velocity centripetal, centrifugal, passive, etc. It is an efficient motor function assessment and training equipment.

What’s the Isokinetic Training Equipment For?

The isokinetic training equipment is suitable for neurology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, sports medicine, rehabilitation and some other departments.  It is applicable to muscle atrophy caused by exercise reduction or other causes. What’s more, it can do with muscle atrophy caused by muscle lesions, muscle dysfunction caused by neuropathy, muscle weakness caused by joint disease or injury, muscle dysfunction, healthy person or athlete muscle strength training.

Contraindications

Severe local joint pain, severe joint mobility limitation, synovitis or exudation, joint and adjacent joint instability, fracture, severe osteoporosis, bone and joint malignancy, early postoperative, soft tissue scar contracture, acute swelling acute strain or sprain.
