The Kinetec Centura provides post-operative ROM exercise that can help prevent joint stiffness, soft tissue contractures, and muscle atrophy.
It can provide the following functional movements:
- A Abduction/adduction with fixed rotation: 20° - 160°,
- B Abduction/adduction with synchronised rotation. Combined range 20° - 160° of abduction with 30° of internal rotation to 90° of external rotation,
- C Rotation with fixed abduction/adduction: 60° Internal 90° External,
- D Flexion/extension: 20° - 180°,
- E Horizontal ABD/ADD: -30° - 0° - 110°
It provides increased ROM and greater patient comfort, along with improved control features such as the ability to make quick adjustments, pause features, a visual biofeedback mechanism, and progressive protocols for consistency. The machine can be used for isolated or synchronised movement training.
Reasons for using a shoulder CPM include:
- Using CPM post-op breaks the cycle of trauma / inflammation / loss of ROM,
- Prevents joint stiffness in the shoulder,
- Speeds the recovery of post-op ROM,
- Maintains quality of articular surface. Reduces pain and oedema,
- Provides immediate post-op continuous passive motion,
Indications for using a shoulder CPM:
- Rotator cuff repair,
- Total shoulder replacement,
- Frozen shoulde,
- Fractures and dislocations requiring reconstructive surgery of the clavicle, scapula, AC joint or glenohumeral joint,
- Capsulotomy,
- Acromioplasty,
- Burns
