Abstract
A device for spine rehabilitation comprising a support frame, immovable crossbars, movable crossbars, and a holder and systems of actuators supporting a patient's head, shoulders, hip, knees, and feet, characterised in that it is equipped with linear actuators (8) mounted to the holder (7) supporting the patient's head and shoulders, whereby the holder (7) has a driving mechanism (9) situated horizontally and mounted to an immovable crossbar (6) of the support frame (1) and in its lower part is rotationally mounted, at the rotation point (10) of the holder, to the immovable crossbar (6). The device has on an immovable crossbar (2) of the holder (7) there are globular or rolling members (11) which allow for a smooth movement of the holder (7) in the horizontal plane. The holder (7) with its upper back surface moves on the rolling members (11) installed in the immovable crossbar (2) of the holder. The holder (7) is equipped with slidable actuator assemblies (12) allowing to adjust the device to anthropometric size of a particular patient. The support frame (1) with the suspended patient (16) and with structural members (14) is moved vertically by a lifting mechanism (13), and moves horizontally on track rollers (15). A method for spine rehabilitation using the device for lateral deviation of the patient's torso, whereby the patient's body situated horizontally, face up, is lifted on eight sling hangers taking hold of his/her head and his/her back in the points of shoulder girdle and pelvis girdle, and his/her calves and feet, and each of the hangers is connected on its ends with two linear actuators suspended in pairs from the horizontal support frame in position perpendicular to the axis of the patient's spine, whereby the movement of each of the linear actuators is individually controlled from a control system, characterised in that the lateral movement of the patient (16) suspended on the linear actuators (8) in the area of the head and the shoulders is carried out by the movement of the holder (7) by the driving mechanism (9) along an arc within a designated range of the movement. The driving mechanism (9) causes a lateral deviation of the patient's (16) torso up to a designated angle of deviation with the possibility to select a proper frequency and amplitude of the relocation set in the control system (17), and the head and the shoulders of the suspended patient are supported by the linear actuators (8) mounted to the holder (7) whose transversal movement is provided by the driving mechanism (9) which moves it along an arc within a designated range in such a way that the holder's (7) upper surface moves with a swinging motion on the rolling members (11) fitted in the immovable crossbar (2) of the supporting frame (1), whereas movements of the actuators (8) connected to the surface of the holder (7) cause lateral deviation of the torso and the spine at a designated deviation angle with the possibility of selecting an adequate frequency and amplitude of the relocation.
