WEGAMED CHECK MEDICAL

Check Medical Sport by Wegamed is an innovative medical device designed for intelligent health assessment through a holistic approach and advanced bioelectrical analysis technologies. Using six electrodes strategically positioned on the body, the device measures electrical parameters from head to toe, providing a comprehensive and detailed overview of the body’s functional balance.

The process is automated, rapid, and entirely non-invasive, with an assessment taking approximately eight minutes. The results are presented graphically, enabling areas of imbalance to be identified and helping physicians establish personalised treatment and prevention plans.

How does Check Medical Sport work?

Check Medical Sport operates according to the principles of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), a technology supported by more than two decades of clinical research and used to assess body composition, the functional condition of organs, and energy balance.

The device uses six electrodes connected to the patient’s head, hands, and feet. These transmit alternating positive and negative pulsed currents at a frequency of 13 Hz in four programmed sequences.

By measuring the electrical responses of each body segment, Check Medical Sport:

▪️ Analyses the body’s regulatory processes

▪️ Highlights areas of stress, inflammation, or functional dysfunction

▪️ Correlates data to generate a detailed map of the body’s balance

▪️ Enables graphical interpretation of the results for a clear and intuitive understanding of the patient’s overall health

Medical classification – CE 2a

The Wegamed Check Medical Sport device is officially classified as a Class IIa CE diagnostic medical device under European medical device standards. This means it is recognised as a moderate-risk, non-invasive diagnostic device.

This classification guarantees that the device fulfils strict safety, performance, and technical documentation requirements. It is approved for clinical assessments and functional screening rather than solely for general wellness use. Although it may be used for holistic health analyses and interpretations, its Class IIa CE status certifies its legal recognition as a medical product and enables its use in appropriate clinical settings.

Relevant studies and scientific evidence

Integrated approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of chronic fatigue

To demonstrate the practical applicability and scientific basis of Check Medical Sport/Pro technology, two complementary clinical approaches used to assess and treat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome are presented below. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a complex, multifactorial condition that is difficult to diagnose using conventional methods.

Solution 1: Comprehensive functional diagnosis and systemic detoxification

In this case, the Check Medical Pro device was used to perform a comprehensive body scan designed to analyse organ function, connective tissues, and potential systemic stressors.

Full-body diagnosis

The scan included:

▪️ assessment of all major organ systems

▪️ analysis of connective tissues

▪️ correlation of physical components with emotional and mental factors

The results indicated the need for deep detoxification of the connective tissue, which had been affected by toxic accumulation that was disrupting the body’s self-regulation processes.

Vitality assessment

The bioelectrical analysis identified:

▪️ subclinical functional disorders

▪️ elevated oxidative stress levels

▪️ reduced energy reserves

▪️ signs of systemic degeneration

These parameters provided a clear overview of the patient’s general vitality and the body’s regenerative capacity.

Detoxification and regeneration therapy

The therapeutic intervention consisted of:

▪️ eliminating toxins through electrical stimulation and vacuum therapy (suction therapy)

▪️ rebalancing the body’s self-healing capacity through bioresonance using the Med Matrix system

This approach supported the reactivation of the body’s natural regulatory and recovery processes.

Solution 2: Identifying underlying causes and neutralising pathogens

The second approach focused on precisely identifying pathogenic factors and biological stressors that continued to place excessive strain on the immune system using Med Select – Learn more here

Conclusion

These two case studies highlight the value of bioelectrical analysis and bioresonance technologies in:

▪️ advanced functional diagnosis

▪️ identifying hidden imbalances

▪️ treating the underlying causes of chronic conditions

Integrating Wegamed devices dedicated to integrative therapy provides a personalised, non-invasive, and prevention-oriented approach, supported by objective assessments and continuous monitoring.

Clinical studies and scientific evidence – bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and its applications
