CSMi HUMAC NORM ISOKINETIC SYSTEM
The HUMAC NORM is your solution for measuring and improving human performance in the clinic, training room, and research laboratory. In one machine the HUMAC NORM offers 22 isolated-joint movement patterns, four resistance modes (isokinetic, isotonic and passive) and numerous reports to meet the measurement and exercise needs of today’s clinicians and researchers.Measurement Only with testing can you determine baselines, set goals, and track change.
The HUMAC NORM offers two primary measurement solutions.
• Isometric Testing: when dynamic movement is a concern, isometric testing is the answer.
The HUMAC NORM will safely position the patient to each angle in the protocol. Protocol options include angles, hold-times, rest periods, repetitions, and sets.
• Isokinetic Testing: to determine maximum dynamic capability throughout the range-of-motion isokinetic testing is the solution. The HUMAC NORM offers concentric and eccentric resistance testing. Isokinetic curve results make it easy determine areas of pain or weakness and determine capability
• Exercise
Exercise is performed to improve mobility, stability, strength and control.
The HUMAC NORM offers four modes of resistance and numerous feedback options to meet these goals.
• Passive Mode: develop the mobility that the patient requires, from straight pattern movements to complex PNF patterns.
• Isometric Mode: stabilise the joint to perform angle specific strength training.
• Isokinetic Mode: continue to strengthen using proven methods to enhance return-to-function including concentric and eccentric loading and deceleration training.
• Isotonic Mode: complete the return-to-function training using our simulation mass isotonic mode.
• Software
The HUMAC Software was designed with one goal in mind – enable the user to go from patient setup to report in hand as quickly as possible. Time is a limited commodity in every setting. This is why we chose Windows XP styling. It is immediately recognisable to all users, so learning and operating the HUMAC NORM is a snap.
• Intuitive Steps
To perform a test or exercise simply select patient, pattern, protocol and you are ready to start the session. The next time the patient is on the HUMAC NORM the process is even faster. Select QuickTest or QuickEx to go directly from patient selection to session.
The HUMAC automatically applies test or exercise protocol used from the most recent session.
• Personalise Your Preferences
The HUMAC’s Preference settings give you the flexibility to customise the software to your specific needs. Preference options include Feedback, Data Analysis and reporting.
Your Software is Never Obsolete<
CSMi continues to develop the HUMAC Software. And we always make sure it is backwards compatible with all of our machines. From the earliest CYBEX II to the latest HUMAC NORM, your investment is never obsolete.
The HUMAC NORM Testing & Rehabilitation System is the one machine that fulfils the testing and exercise needs of today’s clinicians and researchers.
The HUMAC Software makes it easy to operate.HUMAC Reports The HUMAC offers a variety of easy-to-read, easy-to-interpret, reports. Full-page reports are in colour and can be printed, previewed, or e-mailed. Raw data is automatically saved for export to Excel or other formats.
HUMAC Reports options Include:
• Test
• Curve Overlay
• Graphic Summary
• Exercise
• Narrative
• Repeatability
• Progress
• Group Summary
• Multi-Session
• Normative Data
Default Deficits & Exploded View
Deficits are automatically highlighted if they exceed the default value. Individual repetition values can be seen by clicking Zoom while previewing a test.
Preference Override
The HUMAC Report Preferences such as average vs. best rep; default deficit values; metric vs. US units, are applied to every report. Preference Override lets you change any setting immediately before printing a report.
