The New Reactive Step Trainer mode on the Biodex Gait Trainer 3 enables clinicians the ability to provide repetitive step training and reeducate patients to improve their step recovery reflex.
The Biodex Reactive Step Trainer is both a gait assessment and fall recovery training tool. It is a versatile
product, providing capabilities for objective measurements of specific gait parameters as well as
physiological measures of kinesthetic, proprioceptive abilities and neuromuscular control. It is intended
to be used as a training tool to assist patients with Gait Velocity, Average Step Cycle Time, Average Step
Length, Co-efficient of Variation, and Time on Each Foot. The Biodex Reactive Step Trainer includes the
option to utilize Music-Assisted TherapyTM – an effective evidence-based tool for physical therapists and
neurologists to enhance treatment of movement disorders and drive faster outcomes.* Reactive Step
Training (RST), described in detail below, uses different types of perturbations – Slip, Trip, Step, Walk
and e-Trip – to improve step recovery and dynamic balance and thereby reduce the incidence of falling
