On Thursday 29th October, Chris from Ectron and Shiva Jamwal delivered a joint PABLO and TYMO workshop at The Royal Buckinghamshire Hospital
The workshop was a interactive workshop held for Occupational Therapists and Occupational Therapy Assistants.
The therapists worked through a clinical reasoning process with a patient with a neurological condition. The patient was assessed and clinical goals identified. The patients were then assessed using either the PABLO or TYMO from Tyromotion. The patients were then "treated" or received their therapy/training using the devices. This allowed the therapists to gain hands on experience and confidence in using the devices.
The course also evidenced how the visual feedback from the devices enables patients and therapists a better awareness of compensatory movements. The therapists also witnessed a patient who often struggled with pain during therapy become distracted from the pain and more motivated to engage in therapy using the visual feedback and games offered by PABLO and TYMO.
The PABLO handsensor is a real allrounder: It is a hand-arm therapy and assessment device in one. The PABLO provides training for all gripping forms and traces the strength of the hand and range of motion. Motion sensors can detect the range of motion of the limbs as well as the head and trunk. Thanks to the new ergonomic design of the PABLO system, both adults and children can use the system in an optimal way.

TYMO is a sensor-based rehabilitation device for static and dynamic assessment- and therapy applications. The appealingly slim, wireless design offers a plethora of therapy options: be it the improvement of balance and postural control, or active use of force and support activities of the upper extremities, with TYMO the therapist’s creativity knows no limits. Even the preset starting positions (support, sitting, standing) can be freely expanded.
