    PhysiSens conducted a research study; Evaluating Commercial Need for Innovative Technologies in Telerehabilitation Physiotherapy.

    Research Study Findings Concluded:

    1. Physical Therapists find it very difficult to monitor patients and their progress remotely.

    2. Current technologies offered are suboptimal due to a lack of patient data, they want our comprehensive solution for monitoring patients remotely.

    3. Additionally, current devices are uncomfortable to the user, inhibit natural kinematic motions, resulting in incorrect form and an unnecessary increase in injury risk.

    4. Incomplete and inaccurate virtual information delay patients’ recovery and increase patients’ re-injury potential.

    5. Patients are not effective at communicating, resulting in skipping exercises all together and prolonging recovery and increasing risk potential to setback and injury.

    6. Therapists want to use our technology to solve the above pain points, by providing data driven, evidence based treatment.

Providing therapists with full complete data sets to leverage their diagnostic skills in order to aid in quantifying patients’ recovery process, prescription of treatment, exercise selection, and helping to decrease patients’ recovery time and reinjury risks.

    This will be accomplished through our groundbreaking technological advancements in our user-friendly, clinically viable sensor and A.I. M.L. software technologies. We are providing full complete data sets to physical therapists allowing them to use an evidenced based data driven approach to physical therapy recovery.
