Recondition of Laying Patients using System of Coordinated Electronic CAMs

The paper describes the research and development of system for recondition of laying patient. The device uses four electronical cams. The cams emulate gait of patients in laying position. This simulation of natural gait in all phases is limited by the patient's position. An overview of verticalization techniques and equipment is presented. This is followed by an analysis of gait in the context of electronic CAM design. The benefit is validation and redesign according to the specific needs of the patient and staff in the Intensive Care Unit. The graphical user interface design is part of this system.
