Wearable devices for accelerated muscle strengthening
pitch_v1_importSee something off about this company?
15M in the US seeking solutions for knee pain and dysfunction + 1M recovering from knee surgery ~$10B knee treatment TAM. Poor quadriceps muscle strength correlates with pain, poor mobility, and lower quality of life, creating $3B in avoidable healthcare spend. Physical therapy is effective, but <30% of patients attend all prescribed sessions or remain compliant with their home-based regimens. COVID-19 has driven physical therapy cancellations and no-shows up by 20% and delayed ~10k knee procedures per lockdown week, creating more need for cost- and time-efficient, remote, trackable rehab.
