Medical rehabilitation ergometer ERG 911 L

ERG 911 L

The ERG 911 L recumbent/semi-recumbent safety ergometers are specially designed for use in cardiology.
In some cases, the use of a lying/semi-lying ergometer is recommended for safety reasons when performing a stress test: for example, in patients with suspected cardiovascular problems after myocardial infarction or aorto-coronary bypass surgery, or when examining elderly patients or patients with musculoskeletal limitations. The optimal positioning of the patient on a horizontal or inclined surface ensures a test quality identical to that of a conventional seated ergometer.

 

FEATURES

• Two modes of operation:
                  - Remote control from the head unit (ECG, PC, ...)
                  - Stand-alone control via a user-defined step protocol or with manual load     adjustment
• Infinite adjustment of the couch position by means of an electric motor (0° - 45°). 
• Height adjustment of the seat and headrest by means of an electric motor
• Accurate BP measurement device with arm support (optional)
• Bluetooth or RS-232 connection
• Virtually silent operation of the drive mechanism even at high speeds
• Sturdy, stable design for patients weighing up to 160 kg
• Comfortable getting on and off the ergometer

 

Possible indications for ECG with load

• Diagnostic clarification of chest pain (angina pectoris, including vasospastic angina) in myocardial ischemia (insufficient blood supply) or coronary heart disease 
  
• For patients with cardiac risk factors, such as suspected coronary heart disease and hypertension (high blood pressure) 
• After a myocardial infarction to assess prognosis, physical activity, medical treatment and cardiac rehabilitation 
  
• Before and after revascularization (restoration of blood supply) using interventional methods or coronary artery bypass grafting surgery to assess residual ischemia 
  
• Assessment of exercise capacity, e.g. for expert reports
  
• Examinations of men over 40 years of age or women over 50 years of age who are asymptomatic before exercise 
  
• For professions where the medical condition affects public safety (e.g. bus drivers, pilots, ...) 
  
• For patients with cardiac arrhythmia that manifests itself only during physical activity (e.g. ventricular tachycardia in case of arrhythmogenic right ventricular disease, coronary heart disease) 

 

Indications for cardiac rehabilitation 

•  previous heart attack 
  
•  stable angina pectoris
  
•  coronary artery bypass grafting
  
•  cardiomyopathy 
  
•  PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention)
  
•   compensated heart failure
