ROBERT the Robot

ROBERT is the latest robotic equipment used to improve the rehabilitation treatment process and benefit health workers and the community. ROBERT is the first robot in the world specially designed to provide rehabilitation treatment to patients who are bedridden and have reduced abilities due to Stroke, Trauma or any related illness.

This robotic equipment helps the patient to initiate movement and begin to move from a recumbent state. It is important to provide rehabilitation treatment as early as possible even if the patient is still bedridden or still in the hospital.

The use of this tool is practical because it is easy to move from one place to another. Accordingly, patients can remain in bed and focus on undergoing therapy and at the same time do not need to move to another training facility or bed to undergo therapy.

A brace will be placed on the patient's leg (lower leg). Next, Robert will be placed on the side of the bed and placed with the patient's legs. The brake is activated and Robert will start working on the therapy. The two parts will be attached by placing the robot hand to the bracket part. The therapist will do a demo exercise on the patient first and the robot will do the same movement on the patient.

The therapeutic movements given by Robert are not only given in certain exercises. It will mimic the movements shown by the therapist in the beginning. Among the exercises given is moving the patient's legs such as doing instances of flexion, abduction and rotation.

Physical therapy stress will be reduced and work-related muscle problems can also be reduced more significantly. With ROBERT the Robot, physical work stress and work-related illnesses such as muscle problems can be reduced in therapy. At the same time, patients can also obtain optimal physical training as well as reduce the period for patients who are bedridden.
