Zimmer Biomet recently launched a clinical study of Mymobility, its new patient care management app for the Apple Watch and iPhone. The platform is designed to help patients prepare for hip or knee replacement surgery, allowing them to connect with their surgeon and care team before and after the procedure, receive reminders for tasks to complete and encouragement throughout the process.
Patients may also share photos with their care team, such as a snapshot of the surgical incision site for a healing assessment. The app collects and monitors objective data about patients’ surgical preparation and recovery to help surgeons deliver better support and guidance, according to the company.
