Kinesthetic Ability Trainer (K.A.T.)

The Kinesthetic Ability Trainer (or K.A.T.) is designed to evaluate and promote a patient’s joint control and balance following an injury and surgical reconstruction. This unit’s variability platform allows the therapist to use built in training modes or individual protocols to analyze and access a patient’s functional capacity. Controlled stability and instant feedback allows the patient to relate this modality to a specific daily movement or activity.

The interactive video display provides visual feed back and challenges the patient through a wide variety of clinical tests and difficulty levels. Objective data is generated by the K.A.T., and evaluated by the therapist and Dr. Ahlfeld to help return each patient to the desired functional level in the shortest amount of time possible.
