4.4.3 OMEGO Basic® Applications
After securing the feet you can choose from the following applications in the tyroS
software:
• Cycling
o The patient performs a circular movement against a defined drag. The
aim is for the patient to keep up the step frequency specified by the
therapist. The assistive mode supports the patient in achieving the
predefined step frequency. The support intensity can be adjusted.
• Stepping
o The patient performs a climbing movement (similar to climbing stairs)
against a defined drag. The aim is for the patient to keep up the step
frequency specified by the therapist. The assistive mode supports the
patient in achieving the predefined step frequency. The support
intensity as well as the intensity of impact at the reverse point can be
adjusted.
• Leg press
o The patient performs a stretching movement with both legs against a
defined drag. The aim is for the patient to break through the
predefined drag and to perform a set number of repetitions or to
perform the exercise for a set amount of time. The assistive mode
supports the patient in achieving the predefined step frequency. The
intensity of impact at the reverse point can be adjusted.
• Foot drop
o The patient performs a dorsal- and/or plantar flexion against a defined
drag. The aim is for the patient to break through the predefined drag
and to perform a set number of repetitions or to perform the exercise
for a set amount of time. The intensity of impact at the reverse point
can be adjusted.
• Sensoric
o Aim of the sensoric therapy is the perception of external and internal
stimuli as well as different leg and foot positions. The exterocerption
therapy’s aim is for the patient to determine which pedal was
vibrating.
• Therapeutic games
o Interactive therapeutic games (e.g. rhythm or symmetry training) to
motivate the patient to actively train leg strength, leg movement,
movement control, selective activation of a desired side or reation and/or
timing by means of control via strength or range of motion.
