A. ZeroG® is a high-tech gait and balance training system that can provide dynamic body-weight support as well as static lifting capacity. In addition, ZeroG®’s trolley automatically moves with the patient so they feel very little horizontal forces while important training data is stored in a database to track a patient recovery. Conversely a patient lift is just that. It is used for lifting and transferring patients but cannot provide constant body-weight support, the patient must drag the device as they walk, and it does not record any training information.
