ActiveTEP is a digital companion for patients receiving a hip or knee replacement. App and workbook guide them from 12 weeks before to 12 weeks after surgery with knowledge, exercises and support.
Website: activetep.deBefore a hip or knee replacement, many patients have open questions and little support between doctor's visits, hospital and rehab. Patients who go into surgery well prepared and train consistently afterwards generally return to everyday life faster.
ActiveTEP supports patients for six months, from 12 weeks before to 12 weeks after surgery, based on three pillars: knowledge, training and support. More than 60 short, evidence-based modules are written by orthopaedic specialists and adapted to individual risk factors. They are complemented by exercise videos for every phase that need no special equipment, and checklists for hospital and rehab. All content is also available as a workbook of more than 200 pages.
ActiveTEP is a Class I medical device under the EU MDR, orthopaedically validated and developed with patients. In Germany it can be unlocked via health insurance. Hospitals and doctors can book demos and use a white-label option.
