Patterson Medical Rolyan Smart Handle Pro, User Manual

Here’s

an

example

of

how

objective

data

from

the

Rolyan

smart

handle

can

provide

the

objectivity

necessary

to

present

high

‐

quality,

evidence

based

strength

exercise.

A

patient

performs

elbow

flexion

with

the

Rolyan

smart

handle.

During

the

initial

exercise

session,

the

therapist

determines

that

the

appropriate

resistance

for

the

patient

is

5

kg

(11

lbs).

The

patient

fatigues

during

the

11

th

repetition.

Because

this

is

fewer

than

12

repetitions

the

resistance

is

kept

the

same

at

5

kg

(11

lbs)

during

the

next

exercise

session.

When

performing

the

same

exercise

during

the

second

exercise

session,

the

patient

fatigues

during

the

14

th

repetition.

Since

this

is

more

than

the

12

reps

for

the

third

exercise

session;

the

resistance

for

the

exercise

is

increased

by

5%

(.

x

1.05)

to

5.25

kg

(11.5

lbs).

The

therapist

chooses

either

a

stronger

level

of

band

or

sets

the

length

of

the

band

within

the

Rolyan

smart

handle

so

the

new

resistance

is

level

can

be

set

at

5.25

kg.

This

is

precise

dosing

of

resistance

helps

optimize

both

patient

safety

and

treatment

outcomes.

BIOFEEDBACK

People

typically

perform

at

a

higher

capacity

when

they

receive

useful

feedback

relevant

to

their

performance.

Therapy

patients

are

no

different.

The

Rolyan

smart

handle

provides

patients

with

specific

feedback:

(a)

The

peak

force

of

each

repetition.

(b)

The

number

of

repetitions

performed.

(c)

Adjustable

audio

signals

&

synchronously

visual

signals

to

cue

the

patient

when

repetition

or

peak

force

targets

are

achieved.

Furthermore,

patients

are

naturally

engaged

and

motivated

by

technology.

While

resistive

elastic

bands

are

‘low

‐

tech’

products

and

may

be

perceived

by

some

patients

as

very

simple

form

of

exercise,

they

are

none

‐

the

‐

less

a

very

economical

and

user

‐

friendly

exercise

tool.

The

Rolyan

smart

handle

not

only

adds

clinical

value,

but

sophistication

to

band

exercise,

thereby

influencing

patient

perceptions

and

enhancing

the

professionalism

of

a

therapy

clinic

.
