Bioness H200 Wireless Hand Rehabilitation System
What is the Bioness H200?
The Bioness H200 is a functional electrical stimulation device that is placed around the forearm to enhance therapy and maximize upper extremity function.
The H200 Wireless System is used by patients to perform therapeutic and task specific activities to improve lost hand function as a result of:
• Stroke
• Traumatic Brain Injury
• Spinal Cord Injury
Benefits of Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) in Upper Extremity Rehabilitation:
• Improved ability to perform activities of daily living
• Reduced muscle spasticity
• Improved volitional movement of the hand and wrist
• Re-education of muscles over time
FES may also reduce or prevent secondary complications in patients and help maintain or increase range of motion, increase local blood circulation and prevent muscle disuse atrophy.
