Neuro Rehabilitation
To find a solution for the rehabilitation of patients with a stroke, traumatic brain and/or limb injury, and after joint surgery with a medical device that will be linked remotely to a physical therapist and use AI-based solutions.
AIM
To find a solution for the rehabilitation of patients with a stroke, traumatic brain and/or limb injury, and after joint surgery with a medical device that will be linked remotely to a physical therapist and use AI-based solutions.
Background & Gap
There is a big gap between the huge and growing population in the developing world and the availability of Physical and Occupational Therapists. In addition to that, access to a physical therapist in developed countries can be a huge barrier, mainly due to logistical issues.
Thus, an electromechanical medical device that will be remotely accessed by a PT/OT has great potential to solve this problem.
Requirements
An electromechanical robotic device that will be linked through sensors and computer software transmitting real-time data to a PT/OT expert. The device should have the capability to store and analyze data using Artificial Intelligence to research and improve the outcomes and offer ease in future development.
Product-Market-Fit
Neurological disorders affect one billion people worldwide and have significant disability-burden with longer-term functional and psychosocial issues that need comprehensive management, including rehabilitation.
