SHPL Equipment:
Sensormedics VMAX 229 – a metabolic cart designed to measure the volume of oxygen utilized at rest and during exercise. This system has the capability to monitor a 12-lead EKG, blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation in the arterial blood, oxygen uptake, and complete pulmonary function testing. Modes of testing include treadmill, upright and recumbent cycle ergometers.
VMAX ST – a mobile metabolic system designed to collect the volume of oxygen uptake in field studies. This system has the capability to monitor an EKG, blood pressure, heart rate, and pulmonary function testing. This system is valuable for using telemetry with exercise testing.
BIODEX System III – this system can measure active and passive ranges of motion bilaterally in every joint for both adult and pediatric populations. Strength can be measured through several modes: isokinetically, isometrically, and isotonically. State-of-the-art strength testing equipment is often seen in a rehabilitation environment. Our Biodex system is currently being used to measure strength changes in adults as well as in children and adolescents.
