5.2.2 Overview of the parameters available in each operating mode
Passive extension (stretching) adjustment
– maximum
knee extension: -10 degrees
– maximum
hip extension: 10 degrees
Passive flexion (bending) adjustment
– maximum
knee flexion: 120 degrees
– maximum
hip flexion: 115 degrees
Note
–
During passive adjustment of the extension/flexion values
, the car-
riage moves to the set positions and the display indicates the movement in
steps of 1 degree. This allows you to easily and quickly determine the ROM
where the patient does not experience pain.
– The programmed value and the value measured at the patient's knee or hip
may differ slightly.
– The difference between the set extension and flexion values must be 10°
minimum. Therefore, it is not possible to select values with which this dif-
ference would be less.
Speed
The speed can be adjusted between 5 % and 100 % in steps of 5 % and depends
on the operating mode (passive or active).
Default: 50 %
Therapy timer
The default setting
for the carriage is
continuous operation
(=
∞
min).
A clock symbol in the upper right-hand corner of the display (header)
identifies the continuous mode of operation. The clock indicates the elapsed
therapy time.
In the
continuous mode
, the device must be stopped with the
STOP
button.
However, you can also select therapy durations of
1 to 59 minutes in steps of
1 minute
and of
1 to 24 hours in steps of 30 minutes
.
When the time has elapsed, the unit switches
automatically
off and stops in
the position equivalent to the set extension value + 10°.
In this case, a stopwatch replaces the standard clock symbol. Next to the
stopwatch, the remaining therapy time is indicated in numeric form by a
count-down timer.
Note
In the "Therapy plans” mode, the default therapy timer setting is 20 minutes.
The timer can be set to any interval from 20 minutes to 2 hours. The duration
of the individual steps within the therapy plan adapt automatically. The dura-
tion of the warm-up step, however, is fixed, as indicated in the table.
