The exoskeleton, a unique invention of Volgograd physicians, follows the Russian one and conquers the international medical market. Volgograd residents signed a cooperation agreement with the doctors of the United Arab Emirates. According to the agreement, rehabilitation centers will appear in the Emirates and in our region, Russian specialists will establish the production of exoskeletons according to individual measurements.
“EXAR-34” is a unique development of Volgograd scientists. The design allows you to restore and develop from scratch the functions of the upper limbs in adults and children. This invention has already given a chance for a full life to many patients. People from all over Russia and from abroad come to Volgograd for an exoskeleton. They also took an interest in it in one of the Gulf countries – the United Arab Emirates.
– I was interested in this invention, because it works like a trainer for the upper limbs, you can do various exercises and it helps people to gain strength. This is an amazing invention that has a future, ”said Syed Ibrahim, general manager of the Medhat Ramadan rehabilitation center.
Volgograd doctors presented “EXAR-34” at the international exhibition-conference “ICPM”, which was held in Dubai in April this year. The first agreements on cooperation were also reached there. Now a delegation from the Emirates has visited Volgograd to sign the agreement.
– It is important that people will gain upper limb mobility. We have discussed several inventions for export. This agreement will lead to the further prosperity of our two countries, this is a very important business area, – said the head of the operations center of the UAE Ministry of Health Abdullah Al Kindi.
The agreement between the Volgograd company “Innomed” and a rehabilitation center in the United Arab Emirates provides for the opening of rehabilitation centers in Abu Dhabi and our region, as well as the supply of exoskeletons abroad.
– We will help them organize a center similar to the one we already have. I can say that Volgograd can be proud, because there is no such product in the world, – said Evgeny Zozulya, founder of the Planet Exar Foundation for the Support of Innovative Medicine.
Participation in the international exhibition was organized by the staff of the Export Support Center of the Volgograd Region within the framework of the implementation of the national projects “International Cooperation and Export” and “Small and Medium Business and Support for Entrepreneurial Initiatives.”
– At the collective stand at the ISPM exhibition, which took place in the UAE, we presented 4 Volgograd companies in completely different areas of activity. The Innomed company was one of the participants in this event. They managed to find partners in the UAE, – said Victoria Afanasova, director of the Export Support Center of the Volgograd Region.
The meeting participants noted that the concluded agreement opens up opportunities for the exchange of experience and knowledge between the two countries in the field of rehabilitation, as well as the development of medical tourism.

Our film crew managed to see the exoskeleton in action. We watched how it was created from scratch especially for Zhenya Kolomensky, and how the boy made his first movements with his help. The young patient had previously undergone a complex operation – craniotomy. EXAR 34 is designed to help him restore the performance of his left hand and return to a full life.
