Sensors that track healing after orthopedic surgery
Orthopedic recovery is often monitored through occasional X-rays and patient self-reports, which can detect complications too late. OrthoSens turns standard orthopedic implants into connected devices that measure healing in real time. A tiny battery-free sensor inside the implant is powered by an external wearable and streams data on load, micro-motion risk, and bone fusion to the SensApp. Surgeons and physiotherapists can track recovery through clear dashboards, while patients follow progress at home, enabling earlier interventions and reducing avoidable imaging, hospital visits, and revision surgeries.
