| C-Mill |
The positive effects of cueing have been identified in several studies. With the C-Mill Forcelink offers an instrumented treadmill with visual and auditory cues for training and evaluation of gait patterns and learning avoidance strategies in a safe and controlled environment.
The C-Mill calculates online data on gait parameters like stride length, width, frequency and symmetry. Thus tra nsparency in the effect of gait training is realised, while saving precious treatment time. The patented C-Mill concept offers flexible treatment protocols without markers, wires or any other interference with the patient. A complete, advanced Gait-lab and training centre on 4m
Cueing session A typical cueing session on the C-Mill starts with letting the patient walk slowly on the treadmill. After approx. 10 seconds, the system starts giving visual cues which come exactly in line with the current gait pattern of the user. The therapist now can influence this pattern, thus altering and training the gait pattern. Obstacle avoidance A typical obstacle avoidance session on the C-Mill starts with letting the patient walk slowly on the treadmill. A pre-programmed object appears on your demand repetitively and exactly in the required phasing with the current steps of the patient: - first exactly in between the feet, so the patient does not need to adapt. - then more and more on the spot where the feet is predicted to land, so anticipation and adaptation of gait pattern is needed. This exact positioning of obstacles can now be repeated and thus the adaptation strategy can be trained.
