Frequently asked questions
What is included with the Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System?
The system includes:
- SlipStop Traction Blocks and cushions
- Clinical cervical device
- Quick-Ease Lumbar belt system
- Axilla posts
Do the Axilla Posts eliminate the need for a wing vest?
Yes, the Mettler ME4100 system includes Axilla Posts as a standard accessory for patient support. A key advantage of using these posts is that they eliminate the need for a ‘wing vest’ during certain decompression procedures, simplifying patient setup and enhancing overall comfort.
Does the system include antalgic positioning?
Yes, the Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System is designed to offer antalgic positioning. This feature provides crucial non-weight bearing relief and enhanced comfort for the patient during therapeutic treatment sessions.
How does the system combine axial traction with deep flexion?
The Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System is uniquely engineered to perform both actions simultaneously, which is key for specialized therapeutic traction:
- Axial Pull Vector: The system applies the controlled traction force using the MTD 4000 Decompression Drive (maximum output of 90 kg).
- Deep Flexion: Simultaneously, the caudal (lower) section of the Neural-Flex Table executes an effortless powered transition to move the patient’s lower torso into deep lumbar flexion.
This simultaneous capability is a key feature, allowing the system to apply an axial pull vector while dropping the lower torso into deep flexion. This specialized positioning is crucial for intensive treatment of nerve encroachment syndromes and spinal stenosis.
Does this system allow for deep lumbar flexion?
Yes, the system allows for deep lumbar flexion with concomitant pelvic tilt, enabling targeted treatment.
What is the adjustable height range of the table?
The Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System offers an adjustable table height range of 18” to 43” (46 cm to 109 cm). This wide range of adjustment ensures comfortable access for the practitioner and makes it easy for patients to get on and off the table during clinical sessions.
What are the Mettler ME4100's power and performance specifications?
The Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System is designed for robust performance with precise control over treatment parameters. Here are the key specifications:
Power and Electrical Input:
- Table Input Power: 110 V~ 50/60 Hz or 220 V~ 50/60 Hz
- Decompression Drive Power Supply: AC 110V~120V or AC 220V~240V, 50/60Hz
- Decompression Drive Power Consumption: 100 W
Traction and Force Output:
- Maximum Output Force (Traction Drive): 90 kg
- Variable Table Retraction Force: 0 - 48 lb (0 - 22 kg)
- Traction Speed Settings: Three speeds are available (Fast, Normal, Slow), allowing the system to reach 90 kg in approximately 5 to 25 seconds.
Treatment Parameters:
- Treatment Time: Adjustable from 1 to 99 minutes
- Hold / Rest Period: Adjustable from 1 to 99 seconds
- Treatment Mode: Supports both Continuous and Intermittent operation
What is the maximum patient weight capacity?
The Mettler ME4100 Neural-Flex Decompression System can safely accommodate patients weighing up to 400 lb (182 kg), offering robust support for a wide range of users.
What are the traction speed options?
The Mettler ME4100 system, which uses the MTD 4000 Decompression Drive, offers three precise traction speed settings. These speeds determine the rate at which the maximum output force of 90 kg is achieved, allowing for tailored clinical treatment:
- Fast: Reaches 90 kg in approximately 5
–6 seconds. - Normal: Reaches 90 kg in approximately 12
–15 seconds. - Slow: Reaches 90 kg in approximately 22
–25 seconds.
What is the range of variable table retraction?
The variable table retraction ranges from 0 - 48 lb (0 - 22 kg).
