TopicId176

This test observes and records the patient's center of gravity over a period of 20 seconds.

The Podata test consists in the following sequence of guided phases:

• initial no-load calibration
• photo acquisition
• positioning virtual sensors
• start of examination  

How to perform a test

After creating or selecting the patient and the examination, an initial no-load calibration will be performed, if necessary. At the end of it, the window will show a blank graph, as shown below:

The Acquire photo button performs the Photo acquisition, after which the patient's test starts.

The test lasts 20 seconds and the graphic representation of the center of gravity is displayed on the Cartesian axes during data acquisition.

After completing the test, the following data are available for reference and print:

• PoData graph
• numeric values
• FFT graphs

Examination conditions

The test can be performed with the patient under a range of examination conditions, which can be selected from the vertical bar on the left-hand side of the window.

At the end of each test, data are stored for future reference.
