Spirit Medical Upright Lower Body Ergometer MU100

Spirit Medical Upright Lower Body Ergometer MU100

The MU100 is a lower body conditioner with advanced options for optimal knee positioning. Clinicians are able to input desired knee flexion angles and the unique software will suggest the pedal and the seat fore/aft position. Variable such as body symmetry and limb length can also be taken into account for clinicians to finely tailor to every patient’s needs. The unit is equipped with the standard MA900 Rehabilitation Adjustable Crank, allowing clinicians to address lower extremity range of motion differences by individual positioning of the pedals.

Features

• Adjustable pedal cranks enable a clinician to adjust the bike to accommodate a patient’s range of motion performance capabilities. This includes independently, single side or bilateral adjustments from a limited range of motion from 15 degrees through full range of motion
• Bidirectional resistance with both forward and reverse pedaling for instantaneous retro-cycling
• Multiple resistance modes: constant resistance, constant power and Isokinetic resistance
• Documentable patient positioning with numbered indexing seat and pedal crank adjustments for consistent patient set-up from visit to visit
• Multiple seat adjustments: up/down seat position detents, fore/aft patient positioning, and hand-tight, positive locking knobs
• Symmetry monitoring to measure bilateral power (example: Left 41 watts - Right 34 watts)
• Work rate range from under 5 watts up to 1,750 watts
• Dynamic braking minimizes impulse loading
• Sub-max VO2 testing (YMCA protocol)
• Software assisted patient set-up

Advantages and Clinical Applications

• CLOSED KINETIC CHAIN allows patients to begin exercise earlier, safer, and impact free within a pain-free range of motion, thereby reducing the patient’s “fear factor.”
• INCREMENTALLY ADJUST patient positioning up/down, fore/aft seat, and pedal crank for easy patient set-up.
• ACTIVE MOVEMENT in both directions.
• BILATERAL SYMMETRY MONITORING assists in improving limb deficiencies and walking gait.
• IDEAL FOR PATIENTS with patella femoral conditions, total knee replacements, ACL, MCL, and PCL repairs, other ligamentous repairs, arthritic conditions, tendonitis, and many more conditions.

Equipment Specifications

• Power Train: Heavy duty, 8 groove poly-v belt for smooth, quiet operation, dual spring loaded idlers provide a low start-up resistance and forward/reverse pedaling motion, pedal to brake ratio provides smoother pedaling motion

• Power: 100–240 volts AC (standard power supply)
• Overall Dimensions: 43” x 23” x 55”
• Net Weight: 119 lbs.
• Max User Weight: 440 lbs.
