Nucleus

描述

Nucleus是Punar的Medical-Robots。 面向醫療援助、復健、幫助設計。

Nucleus is a portable robotic hand-rehabilitation device from Punar for patients whose hand has been weakened or paralysed by stroke and other neuromuscular conditions such as spasticity, spinal cord injury or cerebral palsy. It pairs a powered finger exoskeleton with a sensor glove and a compact control unit. The exoskeleton is strapped to the affected hand while the control glove is worn on the unaffected hand. When the patient moves the healthy hand, the exoskeleton drives the fingers of the affected hand to follow, a mirror or bilateral training approach that Punar bases on the Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) reflex-stretching technique. Punar states that Nucleus offers more than five training modes that can be tailored to each patient. BioSpectrum India lists them as two-handed PNF and bilateral training, active-assisted training, continuous passive motion, gamified action-observation therapy and functional exercises. The device records sessions and produces quantitative progress reports, so one physiotherapist can supervise several patients at once.
