IPatH is asking for users approval to get access to the Health app in the patients I-Phone. After the approval IPatH is only reading, while the app is in use, the users steps from the HealthKit app to allow his surgeon seeing patients activity. No further health data are taken from the Health app. This data enables patients surgeon to correlate the patients outcome data with his activity. Without the patients approval nor data can be visible or reported to his surgeon or to any other third party.

To measure the Range of Motion (ROM) of patients hip and knee IPatH needs to use patients I-Phone built-in functionality as the accelerator.

Patient can use the IPatH as a digital prostheses pass. To do so it is only necessary to scan the data matrix code on the prostheses pass for each implanted component. Please give IPatH access to your I-Phone’s camera to scan these codes. These data are only visible for the patient and his surgeon.
