Digital screening via a sensor and app for function-based aftercare - Orthelligent is a practical, location-independent and cost-effective measuring system that is used for prevention and rehabilitation. It uses different tests to analyse certain motion sequences and displays the results graphically. In this way, the current actual state can be determined, both after an injury and during normal training.
Your advantages
- Comparison of healthy and injured leg
- Monitoring the patient’s personal healing progression
- Patients better informed and more motivated
- Quality of result is ensured
- Evaluate test results locally on tablet in the cloud
- Suitable for implementing function-based post treatment every day
Small sensor - big impact
The Orthelligent movement sensor analyses movement sequences on the lower extremities while the connected app evaluates the results and displays them in graphic form. These evaluations provide more precise conclusions about the healing process after a knee or ankle injury. The app evalutes the results from the different tests and compares the patient’s healthy leg to the injured one. The Orthelligent Pro app guides the patient through the different movement tests, which are then evaluated immediately. This allows you as the physician or therapist to draw conclusions on the development of certain motor functions, for example. This insight helps with keeping an eye on the recovery progress and the effect of treatment methods used. Another development of the app now makes it possible to manage any number of patients in a data base.

"The application is simple and fast."
"“We treat a great number of patients with knee complaints in our practice. In the course of this we keep a rehabilitation log based on science and field-tested, which contains the various tests for assessing current capability. With the OPED sensor, we can collect this data precisely in a short time. Application is easy and goes quickly so that there is still enough time for therapy and training for the patient. The customer is also more motivated in training when they can track their performance progress via an app.”"

What is measured?
The current tests are grouped into three categories: Range of movement, co-ordination and strength/speed. The tests may be carried out at different times.
Range of motion
The range of motion of a joint is measured in degrees. In the case of the knee joint, the full extension is described as 0 degrees and is important for the natural gait. The max. flexion is on average 130°. In younger people, it is up to 160°. A human, for example, needs a flexion up to 70° to walk on a normal flat surface. For climbing stairs, a flexion of 80 to 90° is required. 120° flexion are required so you can get out of a deep chair or stand up from a toilet seat. A minimum of 110° is required for cycling.
Passive angle measurement
Already in the early rehabilitation phase, the range of movement can be passively measured.
Extension deficit
For a natural gait, stretching extremely important. In a few seconds, you will see the possible deficit.
Active angle measurement
As soon as the patient is full weightbearing again, the range of movement can be actively measured.
Dorsal extension
This test offers a simple and fast possibility of measuring the range of movement in the ankle joint. No more annoying measuring with a measuring tape.
Plantarflexion
You can easily measure the plantar flexion in the ankle in just a few seconds.
Coordination
Coordination is the ability to control and harmonise movements. This must often be re-learned after an injury. Balance and the sensitivity to depth are important for correct muscle control. These senses must be mastered again before the next phase of strength/endurance can begin.
One leg Squat
How stable is the knee at a flexion of 20°-30°? How much does the knee go into medial collapse?
Functional stability
How stable is the knee or ankle joint after 20 sec. of load? How strong are the movements laterally and medially?
Y-Balance
Does the measured person have limitations in the knee, foot or hip joint? With Orthelligent Pro, a cumbersome entry and calculation of values is now obsolete.
Angle reproduction
Quantification of proprioceptive performance in the knee joint. How exactly does the person hit a predetermined angle from your joint position? How high is the deviation here?
Strength/Speed
If an athlete wants to go back to playing his sport after an injury, strength/quickness is especially important here. Here the possible deficits can be pointed out in order to, among other things, prevent another injury.
Vertical Jump
How high does the measured person jump on one leg? What power does he have again?
Distance Jump
How far and well does the person land? The jumping distance can be optionally quickly recorded with our rug and documented directly in the app.
Side Hop
What strength/endurance does the person have for their sport again? How many side hops can the person do in 30 seconds?
Square hop
The square hop test is suitable for the multidirectional quantity of movement. How many contacts does the person make within 30 seconds?
Drop Jump
Does the user have a medial collapse in the jumping/landing movement? Is the person stable enough again to compete?
Speedy Jump
Does the user have the necessary coordination, strength and speed to compete again? How many sec. does he need to complete the small course?
