Nursing bed
Improvement of the rehabilitation of patients in the nursing bed
Even a short period of lying in a nursing bed can lead to serious complications. To compensate for the lack of movement, bedridden patients should be mobilized as early as possible.
The use of a MOTOmed layson edition model enables targeted prevention of the consequences of lack of movement. Improvements in the general condition, stimulation of the metabolism and digestion as well as a positive influence on bowel and bladder activities can be listed. The activation of the cardiovascular system also regulates muscle tone and represents a natural decubitus and thrombosis prophylaxis. The additional use of the arm/upper body trainer strengthens the auxiliary respiratory muscles and thus supports the patient‘s (self-)breathing. In addition, MOTOmed Movement Therapy can stimulate damaged nerves and thus lead to a regeneration of these nerves (neuroplasticity). In the long run, there is a gradual motor recovery of the affected regions.
Users of a MOTOmed layson edition model benefit from a movement therapy that is easy to conduct, safe and adapted to the user’s condition.
The intuitive handling and the user-friendly operation via touch screen enables therapists and nursing staff to use the MOTOmed layson edition very easily.

MOTOmed Movement Therapy
MOTOmed Movement Therapy was developed for people with movement restrictions and complements physical, ergo and sports therapy measures. Patients in supine position use MOTOmed from a nursing bed or therapy couch.
In Germany, the device-based movement therapy with the MOTOmed is recognized as an aid for many indications by the statutory health insurance. It is worthwhile to inform yourself!
Therapy modes
passive
The effortless motor driven movement is ideal for the regulation of muscle tone, loosening stiff muscles and for early mobilization after long rests. Passive training stimulates blood circulation, digestion and joint flexibility.
assistive
In motor-supported movement therapy, the function MOTOmed ServoCycling enables easy transition from passive to active training. A motor-supported movement stimulates strength and endurance even with minimal muscle strength.
active
An active training with own muscle power against finely adjustable resistance levels strengthens leg, arm and upper body muscles and stimulates the cardio-vascular system.
Achieving best therapy goals through interval training
Alternating phases of strain and recreation (intervals) through active and passive training give a higher training stimulus which leads to a better therapy success.
Therapeutic goals
- Promote walking
- Reduce the consequences of lack of movement
