The development of the SanaCardio 1000 is based on the technology of the SanaCouch 1000 couch/semi-couch safety ergometer.
Thanks to an additional pivot axis of the couch, the patient can be positioned in an angle of up to 30 degrees to the left during exercise. This ensures a particularly favourable position for high-quality ultrasound images during stress echocardiography.
The use of a reclining/semi-reclining safety ergometer is also recommended for examining the elderly and disabled. Lying at a 45 degree position is found to be very comfortable. Studies in occupational medicine prove that the power output in this position also corresponds to that on a bicycle ergometer.

Thanks to the couch’s infinite movability (0-45°), it is possible to find the ideal lying position for every patient and examination method. In case of incident, the patient can be moved immediately into a suitable treatment position. The patient’s calm position enables high quality ECG presentation and blood pressure measurements. The height is fixed by means of an adjustable saddle, which also prevents the patient from sliding to the side. The patient’s comfort is increased by a headrest. Both elements as well as the couch’s slope can be adjusted via remote control. The reclining position at 45° is very comfortable. Medical exercise examinations have proven that the performance in this position corresponds to the performance on a bicycle ergometer. Unlike with previous couch ergometers, the pedalling movement of the legs is now identical to the movement on a bicycle ergometer. This is due to the unique design of the pedal crank shaft. This feature eliminates all performance-related obstacles in couch-ergometry.
The speed-independent load is granted by a high-end eddy current brake with computer-controlled torque measurement. This control, together with the ideal centrifugal mass dimensioning, results in a very pleasant pedalling feeling, allowing the patient to fully exploit his or her reserves. The mechanism, consisting of state-of-the art components, runs almost noiseless, even at high speed.
The computer-controlled electronic high-end control centre is situated in the measuring head of the SanaCardio 1000. The measuring head’s front-side features the control elements and a backlit graphic high-resolution LCD display. Its side, containing the display, is usually oriented towards the person operating the device. This is why an LED speed display is mounted on the head’s upper side, clearly visibile for the patient. If the device is used in the rehabilitation or training sector, the measuring head can easily be turned around to allow view on the display and control unit.
Thanks to the modern computer-controlled electronics of the SanaCardio 1000, all common load controls can be carried out using an external master device. The load can also be changed manually in steps of 5 watts on the touch display.
