Smartstep for Clinicians
Introducing SMARTSTEP®
Quick and Easy Programming
Program Avior in just 10 minutes using our new intuitive SMARTSTEP® app. Available on both Android and Apple platforms.
Save and Restore
If a wearer requires a temporary or new device for any reason, SMARTSTEP® allows you to restore their device settings from the old to the new device, for quick and easy care.
Gait Visualiser
Our innovative and unique Gait Visualiser transforms the fitting process by allowing clinicians to view video recordings of the wearer's movements alongside device sensor data. This enables clinicians to adjust settings to achieve the optimal fit.
The Gait Visualiser also helps clinicians assess a wearer's movements during specific parts of the gait cycle. This allows progress to be tracked over time by comparing recordings. In addition, because SMARTSTEP creates time-stamped data, it can support clinical notes, demonstrate medical necessity, and assist with reimbursement claims.
The SMARTSTEP® App
Bringing Patients and Clinicians closer, SMARTSTEP® allows wearers access to their prosthetic device data, and the ability to communicate directly with their prosthetist. Accessed via an Apple or Android device by simply downloading the SMARTSTEP® app in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
