Wellbe Inc. introduced the Patient Guidance System for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. The system is fully aligned with other points of care, including preadmissions testing and rehabilitation, to create a single, streamlined experience.
According to a company press release, it also provides patients with multiple benefits including the convenience of online education, family involvement, checklists and reminders. The program is accessed through the Internet on computers or iPads. Patients can be enrolled by hospitals or surgery centers when scheduled for surgery, and the program covers the entire patient care journey, providing timely instructions, education, preparation checklists, decision-support tools and feedback surveys.
“We designed the Patient Guidance System from the ground up for orthopedic and sports medicine departments to help set patient expectations, align their programs to standards of care and reduce variances,” James Dias, chief executive officer and founder of Wellbe.me, stated in the release. “Patients have been eager to use this tool to give themselves the best chance for success.”
