What is the NESS H200?
The NESS H200 is a medical device for the hand and lower arm. Depending on use and need, the NESS H200 supports and/or replaces bodily functions. Five electrodes integrated into the orthosis provide electrical stimulation. The NESS H200 orthosis or treatment may be prescribed to patients with central neurological impairment such as a CVA. After an initial fitting and instruction, patients can continue the treatment independently in the home setting. Patients thus have their rehabilitation ‘in their own hands’

How do you ensure the safety / reliability of your product?
NESS products are reliable and safe. This is demonstrated by the fact that NESS:

• is ISO 9001: ISO 13485 certified
• has the European CE mark
• is FDA-cleared for sale in the U.S.A. and holds the UL/ETL certificate, which means that NESS' products meets the highest safety requirements. 

Furthemore, we ensure that therapists receive training and supervision in practice before they are allowed to work with NESS' products. Thousands of users are already been successfully treated throughout the world by our products.  This positive experience is also confirmed by various publications: adverse effects are negligible. Where adverse effects do occur, they are rare and highly temporary in nature.

What new things can a patient do if he uses the NESS H200?
Patients suffering from hemiparesis are impaired or handicapped to varying degrees. This intensive therapy:

• helps to reduce spasticity
• increases range of motion
• increases the strength and coordination of arm and hand. Simple daily activities, such as getting dressed or hair washing, become easier to carry out thanks to the use of the NESS H200. Depending on the initial situation (before treatment), the H200 enables users  to achieve their personal goals.

The expectation is that prompt training in good time will increase the chance of recovery. Moreover, the intensiveness and duration of treatment (in months and years) also contributes to improved chances of recovery and so greater benefits of the treatment.

Can any patient operate the NESS' products independently? 
When developing our products, a great deal of attention was paid to translating the technology into ease of operation for the patient and his or her family. After all, part of NESS' Goal is that the patient should be able to carry out the treatment accurately and independently at home. If necessary, the partner or carer of the patient may be informed by NESS about the treatment and operation of the device.
