MAXM Skate - Orthopaedics SA

MAXM Skate clinical recruitment has begun at Flinders Private Hospital in Adelaide. The first patients have been recruited into the ethically approved randomised controlled trial. The MAXM Skate portable rehabilitation device is designed to empower and motivate patients following total knee replacements.

The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the safety, efficacy and cost-effectiveness of the MAXM Skate rehabilitation device as compared to standard rehabilitative care.

Using sensors and instructional videos the MAXM Skate App guides patients though specifically designed rehabilitation exercises. To learn more about the MAXM Skate visit www.maxmskate.com.au or call Flinders Private Hospital on 8275 3333.
