The Ambutrac System is a specialized rehabilitation device developed in the Eastern Mediterranean area, designed to support patients with
mobility challenges, particularly those recovering from spinal injuries.
Functionality
- Traction Mechanism: Utilizes a gentle traction system to stretch the spine, alleviating pressure on discs and nerves. The harness allows for
controlled, adjustable decompression.
- Modular Design: Features a customizable design that adapts to individual needs, providing mobility assistance while enabling a full range of
motion.
- Support and Stability: Offers critical support during recovery, with adjustable components that maintain spinal alignment while allowing for dynamic
movement.
Benefits
- Improved Rehabilitation: Enhances physical mobility effectiveness by enabling safe movement.
- Increased Independence: Helps patients regain mobility, which is essential for psychological well-being.
- Enhanced Safety: Reduces the risk of falls and injuries during recovery.
- Relief from Conditions: Provides relief from issues such as herniated discs and sciatica.
- Better Spinal Alignment: Improves overall spinal alignment and mobility.
- Reduced Muscle Tension: Alleviates muscle tension and pain.
- Facilitated Movement: Supports rehabilitation by facilitating necessary movements and encouraging proper posture.
- Optimized Treatment Outcomes: Combines decompression and support, crucial for effective spinal rehabilitation.
- Gradual Recovery: Promotes safe engagement in mobility exercises, aiding in gradual recovery.
Considerations
- Always consult healthcare professionals to determine the suitability of the Ambutrac System for individual conditions.
- Treatment plans should be tailored to specific patient needs, taking into account any contraindications or health issues.
- Training may be necessary for both patients and caregivers to maximize the benefits of this device.
Contraindications:
- Severe Spinal Instability: Conditions that compromise spinal integrity can be aggravated by mobility support.
- Severe Osteoporosis: Increased risk of fractures due to weakened bones.
- Acute Injuries: Recent fractures or severe acute pain may that require stabilization rather than movement and be exacerbated by
decompression.
- Spinal Instability: Conditions like severe spondylolisthesis or tumors affecting spinal stability.
- Uncontrolled Medical Conditions: Such as infections, inflammatory diseases, or systemic conditions that could complicate treatment.
- Infections: Open wounds or infections in the area where the device interfaces with the body.
- Pregnancy: Certain spinal treatments may not be safe during pregnancy.
- Recent Spinal Surgery: Patients may need to wait until cleared by their surgical physician.
