Publication number: 20210065870Abstract: A system and method provide a postoperative protocol based on a surgical procedure. A system may include using a processor to determine, for example upon completion of an orthopedic procedure on anatomy of a patient, a final state of the anatomy. The system may determine, using, for example, a machine learning trained model, a postoperative protocol for the patient based on the final state. The postoperative protocol may be displayed. The machine learning trained model may be trained using postoperative protocols, final states, and postoperative feedback for patients according to an example.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 4, 2019Publication date: March 4, 2021Inventors: Ted Spooner, Jason Nash, Pierre Couture, William Hartman

Publication number: 20200335222Abstract: Systems and methods may be used for presenting motion feedback for an orthopedic patient. In an example, images may be captured of a patient in motion attempting to perform a task, for example after completion of an orthopedic surgery on the patient. The images may be analyzed to generate a movement metric of the patient corresponding to the task. The movement metric may be compared to a baseline metric (e.g., an average metric or a previous patient metric) for the task. An indication of the comparison may be presented, for example including a qualitative result of the comparison.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2020Publication date: October 22, 2020Inventors: Dalton Winterbach, Matt Vanderpool, Kelli Palm, Jenny Wang, John Kotwick, Vinay Tikka, Ted Spooner, Dugal James

Publication number: 20180261316Abstract: Systems and methods may use a mobile device communicatively coupled to a wearable device to present an exercise to a user. The systems and methods may modify a therapy calendar, for example, based on information determined from the exercise (e.g., repetitions completed, a duration completed, video, etc.), feedback from the user, or the like. A method may include receiving a control command from a wearable device communicatively coupled to a mobile device, the control command causing an action to be taken by the mobile device related to the exercise. The therapy calendar may be automatically modified, such as in response to determining a number of repetitions or a duration of an exercise. The modified therapy calendar may be presented on a user interface, such as on a display of the wearable device or the mobile device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2018Publication date: September 13, 2018Inventors: Ted Spooner, Richard Wells, Travis Dittmer, Timothy R.
