Technology and scientific knowledge translated into innovative development

Visuri was highlighted at the 28th Brazilian Congress of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation with discussions on new paths for rehabilitation with innovative practices and technologies. Empowering transformation through continuing education, the company disclosed new market fronts and promoted the distribution of Enablement and Training scholarships for healthcare professionals: doctors, physical therapists, occupational therapists.

The congress is held by the Brazilian Association of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, allowing for three days of intense learning and scientific knowledge production. The Visuri stand was visited by physiatrists and healthcare professionals from all over Brazil and other countries such as Portugal, the United States, Colombia, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Poland.

Health based on value: the patient at the center of care

Scientific knowledge in Rehabilitation has certainly been expanded with the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the patient's perception of value, who has often been affected by Long COVID sequels. The President of the Board of Directors of the Lucy Montoro Rehabilitation Institute and the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of HCFMUSP, Prof. Dr. Linamara Battistella, during the event's opening, brought the theme: Rehabilitation post-COVID-19, Long COVID. The professor discussed the symptoms, characteristics, and forms of treatment. The lecture was preceded by a presentation on Physiatry in Brazil, with precious testimonies from those who helped build the history of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.

The multidisciplinary early mobilization and rehabilitation teams expanded techniques and protocols throughout this pandemic period. Research was also expanded, as well as knowledge generation, resulting in greater knowledge dissemination. There was also a greater connection between academia and the market with the objective of fostering the country's development through research, innovation, and education.

Visuri fosters technologies in partnership with the Lucy Montoro Rehabilitation Institute

In partnership with IMREA, Visuri held the Advanced Functional Electrical Stimulation Workshop during the Congress. Researchers and healthcare professionals from the Institute presented studies and practices, highlighting the results of treatments, such as a patient who achieved excellent results with analgesia in combating pain due to osteoarthritis with the ReCARE technology.

The unprecedented workshop was opened by technology enthusiast Prof. Dr. Linamara Battistella, who emphasized the importance of innovation in Health 5.0. The President spoke about the importance of partnering with industry to make innovation a reality in people's lives.

Dr. Sabrina Uchiyama from IMREA also shared successful results in knee osteoarthritis treatment in the lecture "Protocols for Osteomuscular Diseases Treatments," bringing the Institute's treatment experience. Physiotherapist Wagner Lopes from INCOR delivered the theme "Neuromuscular Support and Monitoring as Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory Muscle Weakness" and demonstrated some rehabilitation protocols using the most advanced functional electrical stimulation technology and horizontal monitoring, the ReCARE.

Another technology in focus at the Congress was the Remote Assisted Rehabilitation System - Connect 5.0, a technology developed by Visuri in partnership with the Lucy Montoro Network, which allows patient monitoring and horizontal monitoring via the WEB system. The project was a finalist in the 2022 eAwards Brazil, promoted by NTT Data, and presented in September 2022 in Austria at BMT 2022. In the testing phase with a projected launch in 2023, Connect 5.0 arouses worldwide interest in healthcare professionals, hospitals, and multidisciplinary clinics.

"The partnership with Visuri has brought the opportunity to transform treatment protocols into simpler formats that everyone can use, with more properties than other equipment and greater safety," explains Dr. Linamara about the partnership in developing the Connect technology.

Continuing education is one of the pillars in the search for improvements.

Visuri technology is widely used by various hospital teams throughout Brazil, benefiting the recovery of patients in intensive care units, outpatient clinics, and home treatment. Understanding about EENM is essential to ensure efficient and quality clinical outcomes. ReCARE, developed by Visuri, is the most advanced electrostimulation technology in the world and the only equipment on the market with diagnostic and EENM for ICU, tested and validated by Inmetro and certified by ANVISA.

Providing stimuli and successive opportunities for healthcare professionals and Hospital Institutions is one of the pillars that Visuri believes in for transforming outcomes in pursuit of quality of life.

With the aim of updating, sharing knowledge, and promoting critical thinking in the face of new technologies, Visuri offers the most modern and complete updating course on Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in critical patients. Additionally, the company offers training and clinical consultancy with the leading specialists in neuromuscular support in Brazil.

Visuri receives invitation to participate in ISPRM 2023 in Colombia

During the event in São Paulo, the President of the Colombian Association of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Dr. Anderson Rozo, personally invited Visuri to participate in the World Congress of the International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (ISPRM), which takes place every 6 years in Latin America.

In 2023, the 17th ISPRM will take place in the city of Cartagena, which will certainly continue this journey of innovation in rehabilitation from various countries.
