Lusio launches a wearable rehabilitation device at Arab Health

 You're totally missing the reason for lack of motivation. NO EXACT REHAB PROTOCOLS LEADING TO 100% RECOVERY. If you had them your patient would be way too busy counting reps and looking forward to recovery upon completion. Do you people ever use the two functioning neurons in your brain?

Lusio launches a wearable rehabilitation device at Arab Health

Lusio Rehab, a UK assistive technology developer committed to gamifying the physical therapy and rehabilitation space, is launching a wearable rehabilitation device designed to motivate patients to engage more with their physical therapy program at Arab Health 2022.

Patients undergoing a physical therapy program for rehabilitation often find it boring to undertake physical therapy. Levels of adherence are often low and the amount of physical therapy undertaken by the patient is self-reported when they undertake rehabilitation in the home or community setting or while not being assisted by their inpatient therapist.

LusioMATE is a wearable rehabilitation device that motivates patients to do more rehabilitation by combining movements with fun video game play. Patients can perform more meaningful, high-quality rehabilitation in the community, and the device can also be used by therapists in clinical settings alongside other rehabilitation equipment, meaning that LusioMATE can perfectly adapt to a range of clinical settings and specialties such as acute stroke rehabilitation in hospitalization, clinics and home / community rehabilitation.

Physicians can access real-time data enabling them to make informed clinical decisions about their patients’ movement goals instead of relying on self-reporting measures and can adjust or create movement goals remotely.

LusioMATE also supports the implementation of a telerehabilitation program to reduce the number of outpatient presences. By helping patients make more physical movements and engage more in their rehabilitation program, the goal is to encourage better outcomes, which can also impact future care costs.

Jamie Borg, Head of UK Operations and European and Middle East Regional Manager at Lusio Rehab UK, said: “We are thrilled to join the ABHI UK Pavilion at Arab Health 2022 to launch LusioMATE to the Middle East market. Our product has already been successfully adopted in the UK and Australia and we look forward to extending the benefits to more patients. Our technology is unique in that it enables the development of fine and gross motor skills, can be used almost anywhere on the body, and even people who can only move a few millimeters can enjoy games as much as someone with all movements. The goal is to provide a new technological solution to motivate patients while providing physicians with valuable data to improve outcomes. “

LusioMATE was initially developed for children with cerebral palsy, but has since been adopted to help patients of all ages with a range of conditions, including Parkinson’s, chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, and spinal injuries.

The technology provides a wearable ecosystem, therapeutic game platform, and medical dashboard for remote monitoring and prescribing. It connects to all smartphones and tablets (Android and iOS), smart TVs and TV boxes, allowing patients to play games designed to stimulate, engage and create motivation for movement, and to aid in achieving rehabilitation and all of the general physical therapy goals.

Arab Health 2022 will take place until January 27, 2022 at the Dubai World Trade Center. For the duration of the show, Lusio Rehab will be hosted in the UK Pavilion – Hall 2 – H2.H50M.
