FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions can be used for the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with muscle atrophies, contractures, spinal cord and brain injuries, cerebral palsy, disorders of the musculoskeletal system, disorders of the central nervous system, disorders of the motor functions of the upper limbs and strengthening the spine. The simulator for rehabilitation of patients contains a horizontal platform with a body fixed on support legs and containing guides for fastening the front and rear pedals for hands and feet, as well as right and left horizontal rack-holders with nodes of rotation around the axis of the bars with handles and front and rear T -shaped rack-holders for pedals for hands and feet. The horizontal platform is equipped with two bars moving around the axis, having two pairs of O-shaped and vertical handles located on the left and right sides of the horizontal platform with the possibility of rotating the upper limbs of the patient clockwise and counterclockwise in the prone and supine positions. The horizontal platform is equipped with two pairs of pedals for hands and feet located in front and behind the platform with the possibility of rotation of the upper and lower limbs of the patient clockwise and counterclockwise in the prone and supine positions or sitting. The front pedals have rotation nodes and contain handles. The rear pedals are equipped with fixing cuffs to prevent the legs from falling out. Along the body of the horizontal platform there are front left and right and rear left and right hand grips. The method of rehabilitation is to perform exercises of three types. When performing exercises of the first type, the patient, holding hands on the handles, lying on his stomach or on his back or sitting, performs rotational movements with his upper limbs, rotating the pedals located in front of the horizontal platform around the axis. When performing exercises of the second type, the patient, having fixed his legs with cuffs in the pedals, lying on his back or sitting and holding his hands on the rear handles of the horizontal platform, performs rotational movements with his lower limbs, rotating the pedals located behind the horizontal platform around the axis. When performing exercises of the third type, the patient, holding hands on the handles of the O-shaped or vertical handles, lying on his stomach or on his back, performs rotational movements with his hands, rotating the right and left handles of the bar around the axis through the rotation nodes.
EFFECT: development of the patient's motor abilities and his endurance, treatment and rehabilitation of the musculoskeletal system, arm joints, muscle strengthening by increasing the variability of load changes in all three planes applied to different muscle groups of the trunk, arms and joints in the process of therapeutic measures or training is provided.
