Integrating VOLTRA I Into Clinical Workflows
Practical guidance on data management, documentation, patient progression tracking, and clinic setup with VOLTRA I.
Data export and documentation
Every training session on VOLTRA I is logged on the device and can be synced to the Beyond+ app. From there, session data can be exported as CSV files that include:
Timestamp (date and time of each set)
Mode used (Weight Training, Isokinetic, Isometric, etc.)
Resistance level (lbs or kg)
Rep count
Force data (peak, average)
Velocity data
Range of motion
Power output
This data can be imported into spreadsheets, patient management systems, or athlete monitoring platforms. For clinics using standardized reporting templates, the CSV format integrates with most clinical software.
Building a patient profile
For longitudinal tracking, a practical approach:
Conduct baseline isometric testing at intake. Document peak force bilaterally for key muscle groups relevant to the presenting condition.
Record all exercise sessions with mode, load, volume, and any subjective feedback.
Re-test isometrically at regular intervals (e.g., every 2β4 weeks) using identical setup parameters.
Export and compile data into a progression chart that shows load tolerance, strength changes, and LSI trends over the rehabilitation timeline.
The Beyond+ app retains session history per device, so if a specific VOLTRA I unit is dedicated to a clinic, all patient sessions are stored chronologically. For multi-patient environments, note the patient identifier in your own records alongside the session timestamp for cross-referencing.
Clinic setup considerations
Space and mounting
VOLTRA I is a single compact unit that replaces multiple pieces of traditional rehabilitation equipment. Mounting options for clinical environments:
Rack-based mounts
(Sliding, Adaptive, or Fixed Rack Mount) for clinics with a power rack or squat rack. The Sliding Rack Mount is particularly useful for clinical settings because height can be adjusted quickly between patients and exercises without tools.
Strap Mount
for clinics without a rack β wraps around pillars, beams, or sturdy frames. Useful for clinics in non-gym spaces or shared facilities.
Travel Platform
for portable use, home visits, or field-based assessment. Provides a consistent floor anchor that can be deployed in any flat space.
Multi-patient workflow
For clinics seeing multiple patients on the same device:
Use the Smart Pin feature to save 3 commonly used resistance levels for quick switching between patients with different strength levels.
The Auto Load feature reduces setup friction β patients can get into position without fighting loaded resistance during the transition.
Wipe down handles and the touchscreen between patients. The screen is sweat-resistant and cleans easily with a damp cloth.
Consider having multiple handle/attachment options (ankle strap, rope, bar) pre-rigged to minimize changeover time.
Communicating with referrers
The objective data from VOLTRA I strengthens clinical communication:
Include isometric strength benchmarks and LSI values in progress reports to surgeons and referring physicians.
Attach force-through-range profiles from isokinetic testing to demonstrate functional improvement beyond simple load progression.
For return-to-sport decisions, present a data summary that includes isometric peak force (bilateral), isokinetic strength through range, and eccentric load tolerance alongside your other clinical assessment criteria.
Having quantified data in rehabilitation reports is increasingly expected in sports medicine and orthopaedic contexts. VOLTRA I's data export makes this practical without dedicated lab equipment.
Training staff
For clinics where multiple practitioners or exercise physiologists will use the device:
Standardize testing protocols (mount heights, patient positions, mode settings) in a clinic-specific protocol document to ensure consistency across practitioners.
Start with the Getting Started articles for basic device operation, then review the mode-specific articles in this section.
Run a few test sessions on colleagues before using with patients to build familiarity with the resistance feel across different modes and speeds.
