Isokinetic test with the FREI GUIDE System
The isokinetic test, for the line of FACTUM® devices, allows the determination of maximum torque/force development during dynamic repetitions. At a given angular velocity, the FREI GUIDE determines force-angle curves in isokinetic mode, which determine the force developed in the various angular positions.
The therapist/trainer gains objective information about the performance of the patient/client via the display of left-right comparisons or muscle strength ratios of agonist/antagonist, which can then be taken into account in subsequent training.
As part of the therapy, the isokinetic test also allows conclusions to be drawn about any remaining complaints or pain that occur during the test. Functional disorders of the joint mechanics can thus be identified and assigned to specific angular ranges. Muscular deficits and imbalances are determined and can be addressed accordingly in the training program.
The comparison of initial test and re-test enables the presentation and objectification of therapy and training progress.
