Tyromotion OMEGO Basic - Patient Information; Securing the Feet; Securing Feet with Velcro Straps

EN – 51
Patients who cannot sit upright unassisted have to be brought into a
position suitable for therapy and secured by appropriate means.
For the entire therapy, please also refer to the tyroS software manual.
Position the patient with the wheelchair or chair in front of the OMEGO
®
Basic and attach
the safety catch to the wheelchair or chair. In case you use a chair it should have a
shoulder-high backrest. Position the user as close to the OMEGO
®
Basic as possible and
secure the feet in the foot rests (chapter 4.4.2). Always start with the shortest possible
distance between the wheelchair and the OMEGO
®
Basic. Increase the distance with the
progression of the therapy in order to increase the extension of knee and hip joints.
4.4.1 Patient information
In the context of repeated therapy, patient specific data (name, range of motion, max.
strength, max. speed, asymmetries in leg movement etc.) is saved in the OMEGO
®
Basic
System and an encrypted version is stored in tyroS. Furthermore, type, duration and
results are recorded to be used for a targeted evaluation. This data will not be passed on
to Tyromotion GmbH but will remain with the device operator. Country-specific data
protection laws are to be observed!
4.4.2 Securing the feet
Make sure the OMEGO
®
Basic is not in training mode while you are trying to secure the
patient’s feet in the foot rests. If necessary, the OMEGO
®
Basic can be halted via the
operator control module and the display module.
Only secure the feet with the patient in a sitting position. Make sure the feet are firmly
and correctly placed in the foot rests.
4.4.2.1 Securing feet with Velcro ® straps
Place the Velcro ® strap over the bridge of the foot and fasten it tightly on the foot rest’s
underside.
