Umov presents Alba, a medical device intended for the rehabilitation of patients with motor weakness in the upper body, with a specialization in stroke.
Alba has been developed in collaboration with prominent professionals and healthcare centers in Chile and Latin America, with the aim of innovating the physiotherapy process.
The device enables kinesic and cognitive work through its unique complementary system of interaction with the patient and its precise visual feedback via its web platform.
FEATURES
It comes with a web platform that collects all the information from the rehabilitation process, so that patients and healthcare professionals can track their progress indicators.
Alba has different levels of complexity depending on the trajectory and angle of inclination of the exercises, allowing the fine motor skills and muscles of each patient to be strengthened.
To enhance the user experience, guide the exercises, and promote cognitive and functional work, Alba features a monitor that displays the exercises and progress of the therapy session.
It includes an ergonomic grip mechanism and an adjustable glove that facilitates the mobility of the patient’s arm, helping to hold the weak hand.
IMPACT ON INSTITUTIONS
It positions healthcare centers with high technological standards, improving the user experience in their services and increasing adherence to the treatments provided.
Alba improves the effectiveness of treatments by being able to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions such as sports injuries, neurological diseases, chronic pain, and arthritis.
It allows for an increase in the capacity and speed of care, with a timely, safe, and effective rehabilitation service.
IMPACT ON HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS
Alba reduces the workload by making the treatment process faster and more effective, allowing for an increase in the attention given to more patients.
It provides greater comfort and safety for healthcare professionals, as it reduces physical strain and the physical effort required to support the patient, preventing injuries from excessive forces and repetitive movements.
Alba also increases knowledge in therapy and rehabilitation through quantitative information on rehabilitation processes.
IMPACT ON PATIENTS AND SUPPORT NETWORK
Empowers users to become more independent in performing activities they previously needed help with from a family member or healthcare professional.
Reduces pain, improving the patient’s comfort and enabling a faster recovery.
Enhances the quality of the surrounding and family environment by decreasing the user’s level of dependency during the rehabilitation process, allowing more time to be dedicated to other activities.

Frequently Asked Questions
First, you need to log in to our platform to register the user basic information. Then, you can operate ALBA by entering the user data and selecting from various exercise modes or interactive video games. These provide real-time feedback to the user, while the healthcare professional can review detailed metrics on the web platform, such as speed, distance, and acceleration, among others, for more informed decision-making.
ALBA is primarily recommended for patients undergoing rehabilitation for the sequelae of strokes (CVA), especially in the acute and subacute stages of neurorehabilitation. It can also be used in other upper body rehabilitation processes, including by individuals without neurological injuries who wish to exercise and strengthen this area.
The device is suitable for a wide range of users, from children aged 6 years to older adults up to 80 years, always under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
ALBA is designed to activate and strengthen several upper body muscle groups, helping to restore mobility and strength. These include:
- Trapezius: critical for shoulder stability.
- Deltoids (middle and anterior): essential for lifting and moving the arms.
- Triceps brachii: assists in elbow extension.
- Biceps brachii: important for arm flexion.
Forearm flexor and extensor muscles: fundamental for improving control and strength in the hands and wrists.
Yes, we provide training for healthcare professionals who will use ALBA and the platform. This training ensures the proper use of both, guaranteeing patient safety and optimizing therapeutic outcomes.
