Ideal tool for Rehabilitation Assessment
|
Between 35 and 43 million people in the United
States have a condition that results in a limitation of physical activities.
Annual expense in rehab is approximately $170 billion. More than 13 million
patients require some or significant assistance with physical activity and
daily living. The rehabilitation industry continues to grow, partly because of
increased lifespan and partly advanced surgical procedures.
|
|
Owing to the significant variations in existing
treatments, it is critical to know the progress and outcome of a patientıs
treatment. IDEEA is the perfect device for rehabilitation assessment because it
provides quantitative and most accurate data for the evaluation of functional
performance, type and amount of physical activity, and assessment of postures
and body motion.
|
|
The IDEEA activity monitor provides monitoring
and assessment conveniently during the entire process of treatment -- in the
hospital or at home, daytime or evenings. The number of gaits made, the
distance traveled, the speed of the walking and running, and the duration and
intensity of stair climbing and descending, all these can be recorded before,
during and after a treatment program, and viewed easily in numerous ways.
|
|
The prognosis and functional level of a patient
compared to others can be visualized and reported objectively, accurately, and
conveniently with the dedicated software package and database. An urgent
request from The National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research is to
design devices and methods that can assess differential treatment
effectiveness. IDEEA will fit into this application very well. We will actively
engage with researchers and clinicians and provide support for their research,
grant application, and clinical assessment.
|
|
IDEEA is what researchers have been waiting for decades! It is the most
powerful and accurate device ever of its kind. The data analysis and
result presentation is astounding.
|
|
|
The birth of IDEEA creates a new era for studies in physical activity,
behavior and fitness. Truly remarkable!
