Our Dragos Hospital has inaugurated a Robotic Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center. This facility stands out as one of the few places that combines walking and wearable robots, offering personalized neurorehabilitation programs using the latest technologies, particularly for neurological disorders.
Our university has launched the most comprehensive and largest Robotic Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center in the region at Dragos Hospital. The center is equipped with cutting-edge technologies and offers personalized neurorehabilitation programs for neurological diseases (such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, etc.), making it one of the most significant centers in the country. Additionally, the center utilizes advanced technological methods to address common orthopedic issues such as back, neck, and knee problems, enhancing patients' quality of life and facilitating rapid recovery. Our center is distinguished by its modern healthcare approach, state-of-the-art equipment, and highly specialized healthcare professionals.
Equipped with Innovative and Visionary Technologies
Dr. Osman Cemil Akdemir, Chief Physician of Dragos Hospital, emphasized the importance of the center, stating, “We have opened our Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Center at Dragos Hospital equipped with innovative robotic systems. With our state-of-the-art equipment and specialized healthcare professionals, we are one of the most well-equipped centers in Istanbul. I hope this significant service will be beneficial for our country."
"We Are One of the Rare Centers"
Specialist Dr. Bayram Bayiş, providing information about the treatments offered at the center, stated, “At our center, we go beyond classical treatment and rehabilitation methods, offering innovative therapies. We provide early walking opportunities to patients who cannot walk, after they regain their sitting and standing abilities, using walking robots and assistive walking robots. We have also introduced dynamic magneto-stimulation systems, which activate muscles in a magnetic environment without using electrical currents. Additionally, we are one of the first three centers in the country to bring a newly developed seating device for urinary incontinence patients. Besides being one of the rare centers in Istanbul that uses both walking robots and wearable robots, we also apply focused radiofrequency treatments and robotic laser systems used in sports rehabilitation. Our goal is to become the most comprehensive center in this field and carry forward the responsibility of our foundation into the future."
Treatment Methods at the Center
Spinal Decompression System: An advanced decompression system used to support spine and disc health, treating painful degenerative disc diseases of the back and neck.
SVF/PRP: Regenerative cells and products obtained from the patient and activated by special methods, used to heal damaged tissues through non-surgical techniques. Applied in orthopedic problem-solving.
Robotic Physical Therapy: Utilizes advanced robotic technologies to enhance neurological recovery, enabling the regain and development of walking functions.
Epidural Injection: Also known as point injection therapy, this involves injecting medication into nerve roots under scopic guidance for resistant pain caused by herniated discs in the back and neck.
Stem Cell Therapy: Involves obtaining stem cells, which can transform into all types of body cells, and applying them to damaged or diseased areas. It is crucial to perform this under fully equipped hospital conditions with a specialized team.
Personalized Physical Therapy: Unlike classical physical therapy, this approach uses many advanced device technologies and a specialized team to create focused treatment programs tailored to individuals.
Ozone, Glutathione, and IV Regenerative Therapies: Treatments administered intravenously to enhance the body's renewal capacity and support the treatment of various health issues.
Epidural Stimulation/Pain Pacemaker: Involves placing a spinal stimulator under the skin to control electrical activity, which prevents pain sensation and promotes therapeutic changes by reorganizing nerve cells.
