Report from the 40th Berlin Arthroscopy,
Joint and Sports Symposium
From January 12th to 14th, 2023 the 40th Berlin Arthroscopy, Joint and Sports Symposium took place in Oberwiesenthal (DE). It focused on diseases and injuries of the joints as well as current treatment concepts. As an innovative, medically certified medtech product, stappone took part as an exhibitor and enjoyed great interest from the experts.
The stappone products consist of the intelligent stappone sensor soles and the corresponding software (STAPPONE Medical, STAPPONE Physio) or app (STAPPONE Rehab), depending on the area of application. The sensor soles measure the patient’s foot pressure load and the software provides visual live biofeedback and other movement-relevant parameters such as the body’s center of gravity, stride length and cadence.
STAPPONE Rehab also provides visual live biofeedback of the pressure load using a heat map in the app. In addition, it is possible to set load limits for a prescribed partial weight-bearing. Patients can train at home, without therapeutic help, using a visual, acoustic and haptic signal in case of overload or underload.
Enthusiastic expert audience
Due to the symposium’s intimate format, stappone CEO Peter Krimmer had the opportunity for intense exchange with the professional audience and to individually present the stappone systems. The leading physicians from the Berlin area were enthusiastic about STAPPONE Rehab being mobile and its possibility to monitor the partial weight-bearing.
As a result, some tests have already been arranged at the follow-up Berlin Cartilage Symposium (12-13.5.2023).
Innovative treatment of sport injuries
STAPPONE Medical and STAPPONE Physio contribute to rehabilitation, both preventively and after injury or surgery. Through monitoring and precise and effective training, stappone helps with optimal muscle development during rehabilitation. In the rehabilitation phase, STAPPONE Rehab can even shorten the rehabilitation time by up to 25% by making it possible to precisely stay within the prescribed load limits. At the same time, stappone helps to protect, heal, and preserve cartilage and helps to quickly regain the full range of motion.
