The Bacharach GDA-400 four channel controller is designed to provide simultaneous display and alarm functions for up to four monitors with 4-20 mA inputs. A graphic LCD displays monitored data as gas type and concentration, bar graphs and 30 minute trends. Three adjustable alarm levels are provided per channel. Relay outputs allow control of audible and visual alarms, strobes, horns and other alarm events.
The Bacharach GDA-400 is equipped with a fault and three alarm levels per channel with features such as ON/OFF delays, latching relays and alarm acknowledgement. A dedicated horn driver circuit for a local audible alarm is also standard. Two standard 5-amp alarm relays are configurable via the 'alarm voting' menu to trigger relays based upon various alarm combinations. If more relays are required an optional relay board can be added.
The GDA-400 is easy to configure and offers flexibility to meet the most demanding applications. A realtime clock and calendar are standard and non-volatile memory retains all configuration data indefinitely. Options such as 4-20 mA outputs, discrete relays for each alarm are easily added. RS-485 (Modbus RTU) or Ethernet (Modbus TCP) ports are also available for sending data to PC's, PLC's, DCS's, or other controllers. The GDA-400 also has complete calibration functionality for each input channel. This unique feature allows maintenance and service personnel to use the controller to calibrate the Bacharach GDX-150 simple sensor.
Advanced Stroke Physical Therapy Centers
With a team of skilled doctors and therapists, state-of-the-art technology and specialized stroke treatments, Bacharach provides the region’s best stroke program. Bacharach stroke patients make faster and more complete recoveries that consistently exceed the national benchmark.
Bacharach’s CARF-accredited stroke specialty program is the only such program in southern New Jersey. After a careful and detailed evaluation by a doctor of physical medicine, each patient is given an individualized care plan to maximize strength and function and restore independence.
What Happens In Post-Stroke Rehabilitation?
Each patient’s care plan includes physical therapy, occupational therapy and twenty-four hour nursing care. Patients with speech, swallowing or cognitive problems may also have speech and language therapy, VitalStim ® Swallowing therapy and cognitive rehab. Often the psychologist or neuropsychologist is a member of the team. The dietitian will address any issues pertaining to adequate nourishment and craft a diet to prevent interactions with medications.
Each team includes a case manager, an important resource for the patient and family as they navigate through the rehabilitation process. The case manager can explain insurance requirements, and help the family in planning for the next steps after discharge.
Post-Stroke Recovery Services
Spasticity Clinic
Spasticity is a painful side effect of stroke, which may cause muscles to be permanently contracted. When muscles are stiff and contracted it can cause trouble walking, speaking, swallowing, or performing other normal movements. Doctors in our spasticity clinic evaluate patients to determine the cause, effect and severity of the spasticity and recommend treatments based upon individual needs.
VitalStim® Swallowing Therapy
VitalStim® is a treatment for people with trouble swallowing, called dysphagia. Dysphagia is a common side-effect of stroke. VitalStim® delivers gentle electrical stimulation to the muscles involved in swallowing to strengthen the muscles involved and restore function.
Cognitive Rehabilitation
Cognitive rehabilitation describes the many treatments used to restore cognitive function after stroke. Cognitive therapy is offered by speech therapists and by occupational therapists. It can help with memory skills, decision making, impulsivity and other behavioral changes after stroke.
Physical Therapy
Stroke usually affects one side of the body, causing weakness in the limbs of the affected side. After stroke, physical therapy helps patients to regain strength, mobility, function and balance as they work to overcome weakness and paralysis.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists help stroke survivors to relearn the activities of daily living. Stroke may cause weakness in the arm, leg, or both, affecting gait, mobility, and the ability to perform the activities of daily living such as eating, dressing, and performing personal hygiene. Occupational therapists work with stroke patients to restore function so that they may perform the activities of daily living safely and independently.
Prosthetics and Orthotics
ATPRO Prosthetics and Orthotics provides both inpatient and outpatient services to fit stroke survivors with individualized orthoses as needed. Orthoses may provide external support and improve gait and mobility in some stroke patients.
Speech and Language Therapy
After stroke, it is common to experience difficulty swallowing, speaking,expressing oneself, or with memory. Speech-therapists can help stroke patients learn to swallow safely and speak clearly. Through cognitive rehabilitation, they can help patients improve memory and cognitive skills.
