Chattanooga Triton DTS Traction Unit

The Triton DTS Traction Unit represents a significant leap forward in mechanical traction therapy, designed to bridge the gap between manual therapy and automated treatment. Engineered for the modern rehabilitation clinic, this system offers a comprehensive package that combines technological precision with an acute sensitivity to patient physiology. By replicating the nuanced movements of a therapist's hands, the Triton DTS allows practitioners to treat cervical and lumbar conditions with unmatched accuracy, ensuring that rehabilitation is both effective and comfortable for the patient.

At the core of the Triton DTS is its ability to mimic the feel of manual therapy. The system utilizes five unique DTS Pull Patterns designed to deliver traction forces that closely resemble the rhythmic and variable nature of manual techniques. Unlike older traction devices that utilize a harsh, linear pull, the Triton DTS incorporates gradient pulls, oscillations, and a Progressive Range of Motion. This sophistication allows the machine to bypass the body's natural guarding reflexes, permitting a deeper, more therapeutic distraction of the vertebral segments without triggering muscle spasms.

Key Features and Benefits

• Mimics Manual Therapy: 5 unique DTS Pull Patterns deliver pulls designed to closely replicate the manual therapy experience.
• Acute Patient Comfort: A specialized Pretension Step eases guarding and provides greater comfort for patients in acute pain.
• Precise Timing: Independent timer control for pretension, progression, traction, and regression phases.
• Intelligent Speed Control: Automatic speed variation during the Progressive phase ensures smooth transitions.
• Advanced Mechanics: Features gradient pulls, oscillations, and Progressive Range of Motion for nuanced treatment.
• Flexible Motor Speed: Variable speed motor options (30%, 50%, 100%) increase treatment flexibility for different patient sensitivities.
• Extensive Protocol Library: Includes built-in clinical protocols for cervical and lumbar areas, plus 80 slots for User-Defined Protocols.
• Versatile Traction Modes: Select from static, intermittent, and cycling traction options.
• Educational Graphics: Full-color graphics library includes anatomical images, common pathologies, and detailed belting techniques displayed on a high-resolution touch screen.
• Biofeedback Integration: Surface EMG activation initiates the session only when the patient relaxes to the specific EMG target.
• Data Management: Save patient treatment sessions on Patient Data Cards, which record patient pain mapping, pain scales, and pain types directly from the unit.
• Global Accessibility: On-board software supports multiple languages.

Durability and Clinical Efficiency

Built to withstand the demands of high-volume clinics, the Triton DTS is a workhorse designed for longevity. The robust motor and high-quality chassis ensure reliable performance year after year. For the clinician, the unit streamlines daily operations through a high-resolution, full-color touch screen that houses a vast library of anatomical images, pathologies, and belting techniques. This turns the console into a patient education tool, allowing you to explain the treatment visually before it begins. With the ability to save sessions on Patient Data Cards—recording pain mapping and scales—tracking patient progress becomes effortless.
