Andago

Save and free overground GAIT Training. Safe and Intensive gait training in versatile daily living activities.The Andago is a versatile tool for overground gait training, bridging the gap between treadmill-based and free walking. The unique combination of self- directed gait, body weight support, and mobility enables intensive training of various functional mobility and balance tasks. It is an ideal tool to help patients prepare for daily life.


Advantages for our patients:

  1. Support: The Andago supports training with constant body weight support within a vertical displacement range, allowing therapists to utilize any accessories that fit within the inner device width, such as steps, ramps, patches of various surfaces, balance boards, etc.
  2. Andago utilizes mobile robotic technology to sense the patient’s movement intention and actively follow, while providing dynamic body weight support.This empowers patients with the unique opportunity to walk physiologically and safely wherever they wish to go, through doors, from room to room.This opens up a new perspective in overground therapy, enabling intensive training in a wide range of task-specific gait exercises (e.g. starting, turning, stopping, avoiding obstacles) in various daily-life environments.
  3. Safe and Efficient Therapy: Fall protection ensures safe training for patient and therapist at all times.Patients train confidently while therapists can focus on creating and maintaining an optimally challenging therapy, which opens the possibility for efficient group therapy settings under limited supervision. Fast patient setup and automatic lift allow therapists to optimize training time.
  4. Upright and Hands-Free Gait: With its dynamic body weight support, the Andago assists patients to walk naturally which consequently triggers continuous physiological afferent input. Upright and hands-free, patients are thus able to train with full hip extension and balance reactions. The Andago’s independent left-right body weight support enables proper lateral weight shift, a crucial component of gait and balance training. Asymmetric body weight support setting can be used to increase postural support on one side for patients with asymmetric functional
