Adjusting The Device To The Patient - ORMED.DJO ARTROMOT-E2 Manual De Operación

4.2 Adjusting the device to the
patient
Note!
For the following adjustments, the
patient's arm should not yet be placed
on the armrest. After you have adjusted
the device to the approximate patient
measurements, the patient can place
his/her arm on the armrest for a check of
the setup and for the fine adjustment.
The settings are numbered 1 through
5. For easy orientation, you will find the
same numbers on the CPM device. Al-
ways set up the CPM device in this order.
Write the settings down on the back of
the patient's chip card.
Before you adjust the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact to the
patient, you may have to convert the
device for use on the left or right elbow
joint. (see section 6.4 Conversion)
Before any treatment is possible, adjust the
device as follows:
ARTROMOT®- E2:
backrest, armrest
Before you start setting up the device for
the exercise protocol, you must adjust it to
a position that is anatomically correct for
the respective patient.
• Open thumbscrew (10) and adjust the
backrest to a position that is comfortable
for the patient (Fig. F).
• Set the armrest for the healthy arm to a
height that allows the patient to sit up
straight (locking screw 14).
ARTROMOT®- E2 compact:
positioning the chair and the CPM
device
Before you start setting up the device for
the exercise protocol, you must adjust it to
a position that is anatomically correct for
the respective patient.
• Only use chairs with four legs and with-
out armrests. The patient must be seated
safely and straight on the chair.
• Once you have set up the
ARTROMOT®- E2 compact, lock the
brakes (22) of the castor wheels (25).
