Über das Unternehmen
Hip fractures cause 25% mortality within the first year. Global incidence will surge from 14 million cases today to 26 million by 2050. And the standard of care for post-discharge monitoring has not meaningfully changed in decades: episodic X-rays, subjective patient self-reports, and a dangerous blind spot during the most vulnerable phase of recovery. BIOS Medical was founded to eliminate that blind spot. The company's HIPbeacon system is the world's first active implanted hip fracture recovery sensor. It attaches to standard cephalic hip fixation nails during the initial surgery, requiring no additional procedure, no technique change, and no new instruments beyond a single screwdriver. The sensor measures internal body forces directly at the fracture site, continuously, for 6-12 months without recharging, and with 100% patient compliance. Data flows from the implant to the patient's smartphone via Bluetooth, then to a cloud platform where proprietary algorithms generate Digital Mobility Outcomes. Surgeons access a dashboard showing objective recovery metrics that enable evidence-based discharge decisions, early complication detection, and personalized rehabilitation management. T
