The speaker emphasizes the importance of technology in job training, treatment planning, and patient care. Buena noches the listeners from Spain, and Andrea also greets from an unknown location. The speaker begins by mentioning the team he helped lead in changing the therapy practices of patients, which resulted in better outcomes in their evolution. The speaker acknowledges the transformative nature of the change initiated in their clinic and laboratory settings, and emphasizes that it was more than a technological advancement. The goal of the speech is to share his team’s process of using technology to improve their patients' health outcomes.
• 00:05:00 In this section, the speaker focuses on the concept of exercise as a tool to improve rehabilitation. The speaker argues that while exercises are part of a rehabilitation program, traditional written or verbal recommendations often do not lead to improved outcomes. He explains that personalized exercise programs for individual patients are necessary due to the varying nature of the illness, and society's reliance on them. The speaker elaborates that they conducted a five-year study with more than 700 participants, including those with chronic arthritis, traumatic orthopedic injuries, and neurological disorders. The outcomes of the study revealed that personalized exercise programs proved to be more effective in improving patients' quality of life. The speaker also cites successful partnerships with the mutual fatigue and disability insurance agency in Spain, the Spanish public health system, and the University of Milan hospital. The speaker concludes by stating that their study's results and successful collaborations in the field suggest a need for personalized exercise programs in rehabilitation, which could benefit businesses.
• 00:10:00 In this section of the YouTube video, the speaker discusses the use of videos in the treatment of physiotherapy. The speaker notes that video methods of delivering physiotherapy exercises have been studied since 2000 and were found to produce similar results to traditional methods. However, the speaker concludes that these methods were not useful beyond offering basic benefits. The speaker then highlights the need for proper data collection in order to assess the effectiveness of exercise programs in physiotherapy and points out that this was previously lacking in video-based exercises. The speaker stipulates that the basis for success in physiotherapy exercise is based on the adaptation to the patient and the control of the patient's engagement in the exercises. The speaker emphasizes the importance of considering the reality of the patient in the form of their situation, whether in There is also a need to take into consideration the patient's environment, occupation, and social context, and to take a biopsychosocial approach in treatment. The speaker mentions that a team of engineers was involved in developing a new tool to aid in prescribing and monitoring physiotherapy exercises, for use in both the clinic and the patient's home. In a previous study, the speaker notes that two multicenter trials were conducted in parallel in similar but different contexts, one in a hospital in Madrid and one in a public healthcare system. The study compared two forms of approach, one with the technology as a complement to traditional treatment and the other without the technology. The study concluded that the group experimental receiving the treatment with technology had a significant improvement in functionality and strength, and patients recovered approximately 18 days earlier than the control group. The speaker also mentions that the study found that the technology played a significant role in accelerating recovery, making it a valuable tool for physiotherapy treatment.
• 00:15:00 In this section, the speaker discusses a multicentric clinical trial with 663 patients that evaluated the impact of using technology as the sole at-home treatment for physical therapy. The experimental group had access to the technology, while the control group received conventional exercise sheets and recommendations. The results showed that the experimental group significantly improved in variables such as strength and functionality compared to the control group. Interestingly, fewer patients from the experimental group needed in-person physiotherapy sessions, reducing referrals by 41%. Additionally, a study in Madrid replicated these findings, showing that technology as a complement to in-person sessions led to faster recovery and fewer sessions required. The conclusion is that when technology is placed in the hands of the right professionals, it can significantly improve patient recovery and even shorten treatment times.
• 00:20:00 During this transcript segment, the speaker talks about using artificial intelligence (AI) for physical therapy treatments. The AI system distinguishes movements of patients by analyzing videos of them, either through their computer screen or smartphone camera. The system can identify and suggest exercises based on the patient's movements, and provide instructions based on both screen and text images. This type of AI system can be accessed easily, without relying on any specific device or sensor, and can quickly improve patient performance by recognizing patterns in their movements. To use the system, patients can log into a control panel with their credentials, and can track progress for each patient using screenshots of their exercise process. The AI system offers a streamlined way to monitor progress and increase the effectiveness of physical therapy treatment.
• 00:25:00 In this section, the speaker discusses the use of artificial intelligence to aid in the recovery of patients with physical therapy issues. The speaker uses the example of a patient who was successfully treated with a workout program that focused on pain reduction through exercise. The program used a pain scale where the patient was asked to rate their pain before and after the exercise, as well as afterward. These measurements helped the team track the patient's progress and identify areas for improvement. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of being able to assess the patient's progress after the treatment, and offers to revise the program with the patient to ensure continued success. The possibility of at-home exercise programs and offsite monitoring of progress is also discussed, and it is mentioned that the patient may receive additional training if needed. Overall, the speaker supports the use of technological devices to aid in physical therapy recovery, and encourages scientists to continue researching ways to improve these programs.
• 00:30:00 In this section, the speaker discusses the use of tele-rehabilitation and technology in physiotherapy. They emphasize the importance of being prepared and having a strong knowledge of these technologies, as they were able to continue treatment for patients with muscular-skeletal or post-surgical conditions during the pandemic. The speaker also highlights the benefits of using visual feedback and vectorization systems to improve patient alignment and movement. They recommend using technology as a complement to in-person sessions, with the goal of eventually allowing patients to decide if they can transition to remote treatment. Additionally, the speaker mentions the potential for generating research and evaluating treatment outcomes using visualizations and quantitative indicators.
• 00:35:00 In this section, the speaker discusses the potential benefits of using technology in the field of physiotherapy. He emphasizes the importance of collecting and analyzing patient data, and highlights the value of using questionnaires and other tools for evaluating treatment processes, as well as for clinical research. He mentions that the technology can be used to easily and efficiently track patients' progress, store information, and make it available for future use, such as in a patient's history. The speaker also mentions that the technology can be easily accessed through a web page and offers a free online form for those interested in learning more.
• 00:40:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "Conferencia Mensual Inteligencia Artificial al Servicio de la Fisioterapia", the speaker discusses the topic of using artificial intelligence in physiotherapy. He explains that the use of AI in physiotherapy has evolved from treating upper body broken bones and muscles to addressing the entire body. He emphasizes that AI technologies have had a significant impact on the health of patients and that their regulation by European authorities is strict. He also explains that any technology that has a significant effect on the patient's health and evolution is considered a drug. The speaker discusses the importance of training professionals to use AI in physiotherapy effectively and efficiently. He emphasizes that the development of AI in physiotherapy requires an extensive background in the subject and that its use in patients' hands should be done through thorough training.
