Gait Tronics Canada

GaitTronics has developed a robotic patient handling system called SoloWalk. SoloWalk provides effortless mobility for frail patients which would otherwise require two or more caregivers to assist them and put the patients at risk of falling. With SoloWalk's intelligent patient driven mobile system, a single caregiver can mobilize a patient. Additionally, an automatic fall protection system supports the patient automatically if a balance loss is detected, significantly reducing the risk of injury for patients and staff.

Currently, hospitals are only providing adequate mobility for 30% of their patients. With SoloWallk, these institutions can expect to significantly increase this proportion and reduce complications associated with immobility, including: functional decline, bed sores, increased delirium and increased length-of-stay. With the potential of reducing length-of-stay by two days, there is a significant ROI for using SoloWalk in an acute care setting.
