PT Health Study is a collaboration to develop a system which detects, interprets, and minimizes the impact of acute distress/illness using existing wearable technology.
Why we're doing it
Why we're doing it
We envision a world in which physical therapists are the provider of choice dealing with chronic disease, illness, and inflammatory conditions.
We believe if we develop & test the systems to support our early data - we can remotely screen, monitor, and coach our communities to decrease their risk & increase their health.

- Combining modern wearable trackers with a data analytics dashboard (CISRS*) that integrates health metrics into a platform for PTs to monitor.
- Early data & research shows this filter can identify high risk patients and trigger timely provider outreach & recovery management.
