Therapy after MyoPro® delivery

The importance of therapy and training

When people learn a new skill such as riding a bike or playing an instrument, it takes practice, patience, and dedication. The same is true for learning how to operate and use the MyoPro® to complete functional tasks.

Each MyoPro® patient is recommended to attend occupational or physical therapy after receiving their MyoPro®. Therapy helps patients develop proficiency and independence through functional task practice, muscle control and coordination, donning and doffing, and home care training.

Importance of Therapy

Once trained on the MyoPro® system, therapists can help develop a customized treatment plan designed to maximize patient function and overall success.

What Success Looks Like

With therapy, MyoPro® patients can practice functional activities and build confidence using the MyoPro® during activities of daily living such as cooking, cleaning, opening doors, and moving objects.

Our goal

Improve Daily Function

Our goal is to improve the lives of people suffering from upper-limb paralysis or weakness by providing effective, safe, and reliable medical products and services of the highest standard of quality.

Candidate recognition

Recognize a potential MyoPro® candidate

Refer appropriate patients to Myomo for next steps.

Common diagnoses

Potential diagnoses may include stroke, brachial plexus injury, traumatic brain injury, incomplete spinal cord injury, and other neurological conditions causing upper-extremity weakness or paralysis.

Persistent weakness

Chronic stroke patients or other patients with ongoing upper-limb weakness or paralysis may be appropriate for MyoPro® screening.

Plateaued progress

Rehab progress has plateaued, or meaningful arm and hand function remains limited.

Daily task difficulty

The patient continues to have difficulty using the affected arm or hand during daily activities.

Motivation and cognition

The patient remains motivated and has cognition that supports learning and carryover.

Next step

Refer the patient to Myomo so the appropriate team can begin the screening process.
