On BBC Click & BBC Breakfast!
Video-assisted Range of Movement (ROM) using Artificial Intelligence
Last week we were visited by Jen Copestake and the BBC Click team, who interviewed our CEO Dr. Tom Harte about the myrecovery platform, JointSchool.app and the Artificial Intelligence-driven tool we have developed to help surgeons to remotely assess the range of movement (ROM) in a knee after surgery.
After years of hard work using the latest techniques in machine learning and computer vision, we are delighted to unveil this new technology on national television!
About JointSchool.app & myrecovery
Professor Tim Board, orthopaedic surgeon at Wrightington Hospital, was also interviewed by the BBC Click team and spoke of how technology such as the myrecovery app can help patients waiting for hip and knee replacement surgery. This can be either with the Joint School app, which is free to use for anyone awaiting or hip or knee replacement surgery in the UK, or with a customised pathway within the myrecovery app.
Customised pathways in the myrecovery app are created together with a hospital, department, surgeon and the wider clinical team. They are also free for patients to use but are more specific to their individual surgeon and location.
As ever, it’s all about the patients and the real star of the BBC Click segment is Brian, who speaks eloquently and inspiringly about the challenges he is facing while waiting for hip replacement surgery.
We were also honoured to be featured alongside Chris Boardman and some neat cycling gadgets!
