Introduction

The NeuroTrac
®
Biofeedback device. The NeuroTrac
of use, to assist the Therapist and most importantly the Patient to understand
the importance of applying EMG, to enhance the understanding of muscle
activity and to improve muscle conditioning. The NeuroTrac
acts as a diagnostic tool to measure the muscle activity, which is measured in
microvolts [One millionth of Volt].
The NeuroTrac
®
that has been designed to use with a variety of applications in particular
Incontinence Assessment and Biofeedback Pelvic Floor Training, it can also
be used very effectively for Sports and General Physiotherapy applications.
The NeuroTrac
®
muscle activity down to as low as to 0.2
The diverse range enables the device to measure very weak muscle activity for
example in flaccid pelvic floor muscle.
Increasingly, EMG is being used as Therapists and Clinicians alike realise the
importance of measuring muscle activity and individual patient's progress.
This can be achieved by locking the device, which will record the average
work/rest, onset and muscle release parameters and time in use by patients that
use the NeuroTrac
The NeuroTrac
®
to carry out specific exercises and at the same time view the Biofeedback by
way of bright LED lights on the front of the unit. At the end of a session that
may entail five trials of 5 seconds work and 5 seconds rest of activity, the LCD
screen will automatically display the average muscle readings for the session.
The unit can be locked for a certain period so the patient cannot amend the
treatment parameters such as work/rest time and number of repetitions. When
the unit is then unlocked by therapist, the number of finished sessions is
displayed together with the overall average readings.
In addition, the unit can be used with the optional PC Software.
