The OMEGO
®
Basic Pre-Gait Therapy System is used for the lower extremeties
rehabilitation. The target group encompasses neurologic, orthopedic, geriatric and
pediatric patients with deficits in terms of strength, strength control, endurance,
mobility, mobility control, balance, and coordination.
As with any other therapy, the treating medical expert is responsible for medical
diagnosis, indication and choice of suitable treatment and therapy. Generally, the same
indications and contraindications apply for robotic and computer supported therapies
with the OMEGO

Basic as for any manual therapeutic treatment. Knowledge about
contraindication is essential in order to not expose the patient to any risks. Always
ascertain whether there are one or more contraindications before starting therapy with
the OMEGO

Basic. Please note there may be additional indications and/or
contraindications that are not listed here but are relevant, and that the following list is
not intended to be exhaustive.
