True Angle

During a recent Mobili-T renewal, we were helping a facility set a plan for Mobili-T-use via their clincian portal. They had 5 clinician users, but 6 names in the portal. That extra name: their IT specialist. 💻 We've become very familiar with the roles and responsibilities non-clinicians play in adopting new technology into healthcare. Health systems have (thankfully!) strict policies on data security and IT infrastructure. We take this seriously and have adopted the same strict policies so Mobili-T can fit seamlessly into a health system without extra work on the user-end. 🔒 (This also means we know the work involved in keeping these standards - take this as a reminder to thank your IT team today!) 😥 Video description: View of the Mobili-T Clinician portal on a computer where a clinician navigates secure data to determine patient exercise adherence.

"They'll just be able to pick it up and use it." In a recent Mobili-T retraining with a multi-site facility, they told us they initially purchased the system to use with outpatient programs for its portability. "Our other systems were wired so they were harder to use and less portable." Every clinic has that cabinet full of unused technology. Productivity requirements in the healthcare system means time is a valuable resource so new tech shouldn't take too much time. Ease of use and implementation of biofeedback is exactly what we're going for. That initial quote is the best compliment we received. We told the clinical manager to invite their inpatient/acute clinicians to the training if they would be using it as well. She felt confident that even if they can't make it, "if the need is there, they'll just be able to pick it up and use it." No certifications necessary. We provide the training, but as our user said, you'll "just be able to pick it up and use it." How important is ease of use and implementation of new tech in your workplace? . . . #semg #healthtech #healthinnovation #wearabletech #easeofuse

This week our customer success team is BUSY onboarding facilities, getting them up and running with Mobili-T as a vital tool in their dysphagia treatment. What's different now than when we started? We're seeing these facilities come back after success with Mobili-T at one site, to expand across multiple sites. 🎯 🎯 🎯 They've seen the proven impact that biofeedback with Mobili-T can have in terms of 👍 improving outcomes and 💰 cutting costs associated with dysphagia, so we're helping them scale. 👇Download our guide to reducing dysphagia care costs to see some of the benefits that led these sites to expand. https://zurl.co/vmzx . . . #healthtech #healthinnovation #multisiteexpansion #scaleup #dysphagiacare

How do you select the right tech for health-related goals and better outcomes? It helps to know WHY the technology will support you or your patients. Maybe you need it to: ➡ Lead the way to new habits (keep you honest!) ➡ Help you a learn a new skill (teacher!) ➡ Provide feedback on how to do better (personal coach!) ➡ Motivate you to continue (cheerleader!) Those are a lot to ask, but biofeedback can be each and every one of them. If you're not sure how this applies, here's a refresher on how biofeedback transforms swallowing exercises into SMART goals and you'll want to stay tuned for how biofeedback applies to breathwork. https://lnkd.in/g8DHAQj #biofeedback #SMARTgoals #healthtech #dysphagia #swallowingexercises

Alberta-based opportunity! Have you heard of IDEATEAlberta? It lets you be one of the first to try out and provide input on new technology being developed in the province. Breth is currently on its list of products ready for testing. All you need is one hour and this link👇 https://zurl.co/e6LU

Thank you Matt Schnuck for highlighting this! "Practicing breathwork in low-stakes moments allows one to use this tool to move beyond negative thinking when it matters most." We love creating tools that help people build the skills they need to perform their best. Are you making your practice count?

🏥 Healthcare practitioners, you'll never look at breathing the same way. Jana Rieger, PhD had the chance to speak with medical SLP Christina Kang Rosow. As a trained singer, Christina experienced voice loss and dysphagia which were detrimental to her craft and her mental well being. Her experience shaped her professional expertise as a SLP, with extensive knowledge in pain management, muscle tension and its impact on voice and swallowing. This intersection of personal and professional makes her perspective a must-listen for anyone who aims to help patients overcome barriers and treat "the whole person". Listen to the full interview below: 👇 "Don't think of this as a case. Look at the person and try to see the puzzle and where they're stuck. Are they stuck, mentally, emotionally? If it's physical are they stuck in their breath?" https://lnkd.in/gRxkaJnZ

If you've been following True Angle since the beginning, you may be curious as to how dysphagia solutions and breath control technology are related. The answer lies in biofeedback. Bodies don't come with an owner's manual. But by designing easy ways to see the body's systems in action, we can learn to control certain aspects. Swallowing Muscles. Breath Control. Where will we go next? How are you using biofeedback to target health goals?
