This patient is six months out from surgical reconstruction following traumatic bilateral tibial plateau fractures. Part of her rehab is shifting and accepting weight on her legs to perform functional tasks like reaching across her body and upwards and downwards.
Gamification is a great way to improve patient engagement and experience and help her remove hesitancy with her weight-bearing activity. She uses her right or left hand to tap a BlazePod for this drill. She uses her right hand to tap the green BlazePod and her left hand to tap the pink BlazePod.
Stay tuned for more updates on her rehab journey!
Effective and efficient rehab is criterion-based, not time-based.
