VEMOTION MOBILIZATIONUniquely, there is no need to transfer to a separate device as the patient can remain in their own bed.
Secure and efficient early mobilization of the patient – VEMOTIONtakes over the physically exhausting work of the nurse or therapist.
Early Mobilization is part of the ABCDEF-bundle and is seen as one of the most important therapies in the prevention of negative effects of immobility.
A NEW APPROACH TO MOBILIZATION
Our VEMOTION combines adjustable tilting with robot-assisted leg movement therapy in a safe environment.

PATIENT-INITIATED MOVEMENT THROUGH VEMOTION
THERAPEUTICAL BACKGROUND
Particularly large functional improvements are shown in the rehabilitation of neurological patients when the patients initiated the movements themselves. In comparison, rehabilitation therapies were significantly less successful when patients were only passively moved. Research shows self-initiation of the motor movement command is critical for functional improvements.*
The Assist-As-Needed is the world‘s first robotic implementation of this therapy paradigm, which does not require any complex sensors such as EEG or EMG. A minimal movement of the patient is sufficient to achieve the desired complete range of motion in a robotically assisted manner.

DISCOVER VEMOTION
The robot is our centerpiece. It performs the stepping movement according to the mobilization parameters and is optimally adaptable to the patient’s ability.
New perspective with our verticalizable bed. Our specially designed ICU bed enables verticalization and mobilization with the robot – directly in the patient bed.
Our patient adapters connect and secure. They provide the interface from the patient to VEMOTION, support the patient optimally and can be flexibly adapted.
The monitor is our guide. Intuitive interface guidance leads the user step by step through setup and mobilization.
The trolley is our all-rounder. It offers flexibility for the robot transfer and storage space for the patient adapters.
Different types of mattresses depending on your needs. Both active and passive anti-decubitus mattresses can be selected for VEMOTION.
ADVANTAGES OF VEMOTION
The VEMOTION solves the problem of large-scale implementation of Very Early Mobilization in critical care by bringing robot-assisted mobilization to the patient.
The unique usability of the VEMOTION allows one person to perform early mobilization therapy even with severely affected patients. This is possible because there is no need to transfer the patient to a separate therapy device.
Safe
Therapy is performed directly in patient’s ICU bed. Dangerous transfers of the patient on to separate devices are avoided.
Risk of injuries is reduced by supporting the therapists in the physically demanding work.
EASY TO OPERATE
Great user experience through intuitive user interface and state-of-the-art technology.
The robot-assisted technology complements manual early mobilization and can thus pursue several therapy goals at once.
ADAPTIVE
Mobilization is individually adapted to the patient’s capabilities: either manually or autoadaptively through the patented Assist-As-Needed technology.
The specially developed patient adapters allow VEMOTION to be adapted to patients of different statures.
DIGITAL
VEMOTION enables detailed recording of the therapy progress, as well as the patient’s activity.
Therapy data is saved automatically on the device in compliance with GDPR; handwritten documentation is no longer necessary.
HYGIENIC
All components of VEMOTION comply with the highest hygienic standards. The components are either wipedisinfectable, reprocessable or single-patient items.
PRACTITIONERS ARE SPEAKING
From the beginning of the project, I support the approach of robot-assisted Very Early Mobilization. VEMOTION will combine the benefits of early mobilization with a unique usability approach. Bringing the therapy to the patient rather than the patient to therapy is truly innovative. I expect particularly our ventilated patients to benefit from this new device.”
