Morecare i Gait – Electric Body Weight Support Gait Trainer

Neurological Rehabilitation

Selected people recovering from stroke or acquired neurological injury may need additional support to practise standing and stepping. i-Gait enables a therapist to position the user in a body harness and guide standing, balance and gait tasks according to an individual rehabilitation plan.

Stroke and Hemiplegia Gait Practice

The body-weight support harness and adjustable parallel bars provide an environment for supervised weight transfer, step initiation and repeated walking practice.

Use depends on the person's postural control, lower-limb capacity and therapy goals.

Orthopaedic and Postoperative Rehabilitation

For selected patients cleared for weight-bearing activity, i-Gait may assist therapist-led standing and mobility practice.

It does not quantify the force being borne by the legs, so it must not be used as a substitute for measured load control when a precise weight-bearing restriction applies.

Balance and Weight-Shifting Exercises

The fitted body harness can provide extra support while therapists work on upright positioning, lateral weight transfer and selected balance activities.

Support requirements must be reassessed during each stage of training.

Standing Tolerance

For suitable users, therapist-controlled suspension can help facilitate periods of supported upright practice.

Session duration depends on medical stability, comfort and the rehabilitation plan.

Overground Gait Training

On suitable level indoor floors, i-Gait can support supervised stepping practice with the parallel bars and suspension system.

The appropriate frame movement and brake procedure must follow the specific training setup and approved instructions.

Treadmill-Assisted Walking

i-Gait can be used with a suitably compatible treadmill where dimensions, stability, belt access, clearance and supervision have been assessed.

The treadmill is a separate device and is not included in the standard package.

Practical Purpose and Outcomes

The system is designed to make participation in supported standing, weight shifting and gait training possible for selected rehabilitation users.

Gains in balance, walking ability or independence cannot be guaranteed.

Who May Be Suitable

• Adolescents and adults who need overhead harness assistance to participate in therapist-supervised standing or gait training.
• Users up to 150 kg who can be correctly fitted within the standard medium or large harness and frame-height range.
• Rehabilitation centres and suitable home programmes with qualified supervision and sufficient stable indoor space.
• Patients who need additional support beyond ordinary walking frames or parallel bars, as established by a therapist.

When Another Solution May Be Better

• When the main task is moving a person from bed to wheelchair, consider a dedicated patient-transfer hoist rather than i-Gait.
• When the clinician requires precise, measured unloading percentages or strict partial-weight-bearing limits, use equipment with an appropriate force measurement and control system.
• Users above 150 kg cannot be approved solely on the frame's 300 kg structural rating; customized systems require a separate complete-system rating.
• Where adequate head/trunk control, medical stability, harness fit or supervision cannot be established, a different positioning or gait-training system may be needed.
• In locations without adequate overhead, doorway, treadmill or turning clearance, the standard system may not be appropriate.

Information to Share Before Ordering

User Measurements

• Age, height and body weight.
• Waist, hip and trunk measurements.
• Medical condition and rehabilitation goals.
• Current standing and stepping abilities.
• Range of motion, spasticity or contractures where relevant.
• Recommended harness support.

Therapy Requirements

• Supported standing, overground gait training, treadmill training or a combination.
• Expected session frequency.
• Whether precise unloading measurement is clinically required.

Facility Requirements

• Room dimensions and clear overhead height.
• Doorway width and floor type.
• Available 220V AC electrical supply.

• Available space for therapist assistance and movement.

Fit and Rating Guidance

Published harness ranges are Medium 60–100 kg and Large 90–150 kg; both are supplied as standard.

The overlapping weight range does not eliminate the need to measure the user's body.

Confirm any alternative pediatric, bariatric or custom configuration and its approved capacity in writing before purchase.

Available Customization

• Pediatric or customized harness sizes.
• Custom frame dimensions.
• Parallel bar height and width configuration.
• Bariatric configurations, subject to separate capacity approval.
• Alternative colour finishes.
• Additional accessories subject to technical feasibility.
• Optional battery backup at additional cost.

Key Limitations

The standard complete-system user limit is 150 kg.

The separate 300 kg structural frame capacity does not increase it.

The lifting mechanism does not display or control a measured body-weight unloading percentage.

Qualified professional supervision is required.

Available Configuration Options

• Electric harness suspension height adjusted through the included wired hand controller.
• Stainless-steel parallel bars with height and width adjustment.
• Medium (60–100 kg) and Large (90–150 kg) harnesses included as standard.
• Pediatric harnesses, bariatric designs, custom frame dimensions, alternative sling sizes, colour finishes or additional therapy accessories may be discussed; compatibility, pricing and approved load rating must be confirmed before ordering.
• Battery backup is optional at additional cost and is not included in the standard ₹86,000 configuration.
• Confirm the battery option, power-failure operation, charging and backup runtime before ordering.

Before Every Training Session

• Obtain a qualified assessment of the user's medical stability, body dimensions, functional abilities and planned gait-training task.
• Check that the user's weight is within the 150 kg standard rating and the selected harness's permissible range.
• Inspect the harness stitching, buckles, suspension straps, hooks and attachment points for damage or wear.
• Check all frame fasteners, handrail adjustments, brakes, castors and electrical connections.
• Confirm the operating surface is level, the training area is clear and sufficient caregiver or therapist space is available.
• Test the control system before placing the user's weight into the harness.
• Establish the manufacturer's approved recovery and assisted-lowering plan for a power or actuator failure before lifting a user.

During Supported Standing and Walking

• Qualified therapist or trained caregiver supervision is required throughout.
• Never leave a user suspended or unattended.
• Fit the body harness correctly and raise or lower using only the intended electric controller.
• Adjust handrails for the user's dimensions and secure the locking hardware.
• Follow the approved castor brake and frame movement procedure for stationary standing, overground training and treadmill sessions; these phases can require different settings.
• Keep clothing, limbs, cables and loose equipment away from moving mechanical parts and treadmill belts.
• Stop the activity if distress, pain, instability, sling shifting, abnormal noise or electrical faults occur.
• Do not use i-Gait for general bed-to-wheelchair transfers or unrelated patient lifting.

Power Failure and Emergency Planning

The standard i-Gait operates on 220V AC mains power and does not include battery backup.

When mains power fails, electric raising and lowering are unavailable on the standard unit.

The published product specifications state that the suspension remains in its current position during a power cut.

Battery backup can be supplied as an additional-cost option, but its operating capability and runtime must be confirmed for the actual configured unit.

Do not assume a manual emergency-lowering function unless it is specified in the approved instructions.

Operators must follow the written, model-specific approved recovery procedure supplied with the unit.

Establish a safe assisted-recovery plan before suspending a user and never leave a person unattended in the harness.

Cleaning, Care and Maintenance

• Disconnect mains power before cleaning or servicing.
• Wipe the painted frame and stainless-steel handrails with a soft damp cloth and mild cleaner.
• Clean the body harnesses according to their care labels; dry fully before reuse.
• Keep the handset, actuator, control unit and connectors dry.
• Do not pressure-wash electrical parts.
• Inspect sling materials, fasteners, suspension points, cable routing, brakes and moving assemblies regularly.
• Remove debris from castors and verify that all locks work correctly.
• Do not use equipment that is damaged, worn or functioning abnormally.
