Rehabilitation after Amputations (Adults)
A multidisciplinary program that combines physical and rehabilitation medicine doctors, functional specialists, state-of-the-art robotic and physical medicine technologies to provide rehabilitation services to patients after amputations.
During rehabilitation, the following measures are being taken: assessment and documentation of the patient’s clinical condition and functional disorders, the adaptation of the patient to their functional incapacity, complication prevention, individual rehabilitation plan development, social integration, providing recommendations for the correct use of prosthesis and inclusion in the dynamic monitoring register.
Target group:
Patients with functional disorders at the age of 18 and over who are medically stable and for whom the potential and motivation for medical rehabilitation are assessed as sufficient.
The rehabilitation program objectives:
According to an individually developed medical rehabilitation plan.
ROBOTIC TRAINERS USED DURING THERAPY:
Luna EMG is a rehabilitation robot designed to make physical therapy more fun for neurological and orthopaedic patients, while increasing their muscle strength, coordination and range of motion. … The robot can help patients maintain their mobility for longer and slow down the process of muscular dystrophy.
Fisiotek 3000TS refers to continuous passive motion (CPM) simulators for the lower extremities. The main purpose of using simulators is to rehabilitate joints after injuries or surgery. During therapy, the device forces the leg joints to bend at a certain angle without involving the patient’s muscles. The device is for the knee, hip and ankle joint mechanotherapy, equipped with a memory card and a Warm Up feature that can be used to warm the joint before therapy actually begins.
ARTROMOT S4 is a CPM therapy (continuous passive movement). This therapy is designed for continuous passive joint development. It is the fastest, most painless and safest form of orthopaedic rehabilitation using special robotic mechanotherapy devices. ARTROMOT S4 is intended for the rehabilitation treatment of the shoulder girdle after injuries and surgeries, as well as for the prevention of complications caused by prolonged immobilization: contractures, adhesions, venous thrombosis.

To apply for the rehabilitation service in the day hospital, please contact the rehabilitation coordinator of Riga 1st Hospital by phone: 67366323 (key 2, Rehabilitation services)
or fill in the e-application form and we will contact you within 24 hours on a working day.
- Passport or ID card
- Insurance policy
- Referral Form 027/u, (State Paid Service)
- Previous examinations, extracts
Please notify the Clinic Coordinator (67366323) or your functional specialist at least 24 hours in advance.
- If a patient refuses to receive the service due to justified reasons (for example, acute illness or exacerbation of a chronic illness, death of a first-degree relative or spouse, for which an appropriate document is presented within 2 weeks – an extract from the inpatient/outpatient medical card – form No.027/u, birth/death certificate), the service is offered to the next patient from the waiting queue, but the refused patient is placed at the beginning of the queue.
- If a patient refuses to receive the service for unjustified reasons, the service is offered to the next patient from the waiting queue, but the refused patient is placed at the end of the queue.
- The patient may be excluded from the waiting list of the State-paid service if the patient repeatedly, at least 2 times, refuses to come or in case it is impossible to contact the patient for a long time (by telephone, electronically).
