Uncertain insights frustrate orthopedic surgeons too often. Patients describe their mobility subjectively, and when it comes to recovery, compliance is impossible to track. This leaves doctors with a muddied picture of patient health before and after surgery. But a new wearable is changing everything.

It’s called TracPatch. Created by Consensus, an orthopedic surgery group, the device objectively records patient activity. Every knee bend and hip flex is transmitted as data. Powered by Watson AI technology, TracPatch is able to interpret that information to help doctors understand and accelerate recovery.
