n workout protocol
With the special "workout" function, a
series of special, programmed proto cols
can be completed in one session.
The program includes the following
protocols in a given sequence:
warmup, stretch extension, EROM
repeat extension, stretch flexion, EROM
repeat flexion, and cool-down.
The entire workout protocol takes ap-
prox. 38 to 40 minutes to complete.
Protocol stages:
− 5-minute protocol: warmup
Starting from the middle position, the
range of motion is gradually increased
toward extension and flexion in steps
of 1 °
− 5-minute exercise according to
programmed settings
− 5-minute protocol: stretch flexion
− 5-minute protocol: EROM repeat
flexion
− 5-minute protocol: stretch extension
− 5-minute protocol: EROM repeat
extension
− 5-minute exercise according to
programmed settings
− 3-minute protocol: cool-down
The cool-down protocol is the warm-
up protocol of the workout mode
reversed. Starting from the maximum
values, the carriage reduces the range
of motion by 1 ° per cycle, until the
middle position is reached.
The device switches off, when the
protocol has been completed.
The indicated minutes are approxi-
mate values. Depending on the pro-
grammed maximum range of motion,
the times may vary.

n Comfort protocol
With the special "Comfort" function, the
range of motion is gradually ex tended
until the patient attains the maximum
programmed extension and flexion
values.
For this protocol, the maximum values
are programmed first, then the special
function is activated and, eventually, the
treatment is started.
ARTROMOT®-K1 Comfort will now
complete five cycles in both directions
with the maximum programmed values
minus 5 °. Then the range of motion is
increased by 1 ° per cycle in both direc-
tions until the programmed limit values
are reached. Once the limit values have
been attained, the CPM device contin-
ues in the programmed range of motion
until the end of the therapy session.
LEVEL 4:
n EROM repeat extension
The special "EROM repeat extension"
function allows a more efficient exercise
in the last 10 ° before the set maximum
extension value.
For this protocol, the CPM device starts
in the middle between the set extension
and flexion values. It will first move to
the programmed flexion value and then
to the programmed extension value.
When the extension value has been
reached, the carriage reverses 10 ° to-
ward the flexion angle and then moves
back again to the maximum extension
value. The movement through the final
10 ° is repeated five times at a slow
speed.
At the end of the cycle, the carriage will
again move to the maximum flexion
value and then starts another cycle with
five repetitions through the last 10 ° of
the extension angle.
