What is the Biodex dynamometer used for?

Only Biodex isokinetics allows patients to test and train with the isolated joints and surrounding musculature in biomechanically correct positions and at speeds that replicate function. All the parameters (including acceleration and deceleration) that define muscle functional performance can be measured.

What is an isokinetic dynamometer?

Isokinetic dynamometers are passive devices which resist applied forces and control the speed of exercise at a predetermined rate. Such dynamometers generally provide a record of applied force throughout a joint range of motion.

How does the Biodex test work?

The Biodex test involves utilizing a computer assisted machine to assess the patient’s isokinetic strength. The word “isokinetic” refers to an object moving at a constant speed with a varied resistance throughout a range of motion.

What is a Biodex Balance System?

The Biodex Balance System SD is a sophisticated measuring and training device for static and dynamic balance testing and training. The BioSway is a portable balance device with a static-only platform.

What is a Cybex isokinetic machine?

The Cybex Norm Isokinetic System is designed for neuromuscular testing and rehabilitation. This state-of-the-art equipment provides dynamic and static muscle loading and various programs for rehabilitation of the knee, ankle, and hip as well as the shoulder, elbow, and wrist.

What is isokinetic dynamometer test?

An isokinetic dynamometer is a device used within sports and exercise science as well as clinical testing environments that is used to evaluate joint torque. Isokinetic dynamometers are able to test the strength (torque) and power of different muscle groups.

What does Biodex isokinetic dynamometer measure?

Background: Isokinetic dynamometry is a widely used tool for measuring muscle strength in clinical intervention and rehabilitation as well as research in children. Objective: To assess the test-retest reliability of knee flexor/extensor strength using the Biodex Multi-Joint System 4 Isokinetic Dynamometer in children.

How much does a Biodex balance system Cost?

Original Price $10,995.00. Selling for much less $4000.00. Freight not included. Please call me to request one.

What is balance system?

A functioning balance system allows a person to move through the environment without falling and to be aware of one’s physical position in relation to gravity. The human balance system is complex. It includes input from and coordination of three sensory systems: vestibular, visual, and somatosensory.

What is kinetic ISO?

Isokinetic training is a type of exercise training that uses a special machine. The exercise machine creates different levels of resistance. That way, your movements are at a constant speed, no matter how much force you apply. Whatever your strength level is, the machine can always match the amount of force you apply.

Why Biodex system 4 dynamometer?

The Biodex System 4 Dynamometer provides objective, reproducible measures that can be correlated with the physical demands of different jobs, as determined by the Department of Labor.

What is the Biodex system 4?

The Biodex System 4 is a modular design. By adding attachments as needs arise, you can strategically expand: orthopaedic , sport, paediatric, industrial, neurological and older adult medicine. If playback doesn’t begin shortly, try restarting your device.

Where are Biodex products made?

We manufacture our products in our state-of-the-art, 120,000 sq ft facility following strict quality control guidelines. Biodex is certified for ISO 9001:2008, ISO 13485:2003.

How many modes of operation does the Biodex system have?
