Introduction
In the evolving field of health technology, Crosslink Inc. has launched a remarkable new feature, the "AI Posture Analysis," within its all-in-one electronic health record system, Kartte. This innovative tool is designed for osteopathy, acupuncture, and chiropractic clinics, facilitating the visualization of patients' treatment outcomes in a more tangible way.
Overview of Kartte
Kartte has established itself as a comprehensive solution that integrates various functions such as appointment scheduling, patient inquiries, medical records, billing, and payment systems seamlessly into one platform. With more than
1 million medical records generated and over
5,000 clinics adopted, its user-friendly features have revolutionized clinic management. However, the new AI-powered feature stems directly from feedback received from practitioners who sought a method to quantify and illustrate the physical transformations of their patients.
What AI Posture Analysis Offers
Simple Operations
The AI Posture Analysis allows practitioners to assess posture using just the clinic’s existing setup. By simply taking photos from specific angles according to on-screen guidance, any staff member can effectively capture the patient’s posture. The AI technology then automates the analysis by quantifying alignment issues, such as spinal misalignments and stooping, across
14 different parameters.
Results are presented clearly through color-coded scores, indicating whether the posture is "good," "mildly concerning," or "needs attention." Any areas of concern can be adjusted on the display, recalculating the scores instantaneously. Additionally, AI-generated observations and explanations aid clinicians in providing thorough patient information.
Complete Integration in Kartte
Unlike separate tools commonly used in clinics, the posture analysis is fully embedded within Kartte’s system. Thus, the results appear within each patient's digital medical record without the hassle of data duplication or switching between multiple applications. This cohesive approach links patient information and historical treatment records, enabling easy comparisons between initial and recent assessments.
Continuous Monitoring of Patient Progress
Patients can revisit their posture scores, pre- and post-treatment images, and overall AI evaluations through the patient app at any time. This feature empowers patients to track their progress consistently rather than relying solely on verbal reassurances from their practitioners. Consequently, patients can make informed evaluations about their health and recognize the tangible improvements through ongoing treatment.
Development Background
The inception of the AI Posture Analysis came from requests by multi-clinic practitioners who found that using external posture analysis tools fragmented their workflows. They sought a solution that would eliminate the disjointed use of various applications, advocating for an integrated process that could streamline appointments through to documentation. This concern resonated widely across numerous clinics, leading Crosslink to prioritize the creation of user-friendly technology that respects practitioners’ daily operational flows.
Shifting Mindsets from Treatment to Maintenance
The ability to objectively showcase posture, an often overlooked aspect of health, has the potential to redefine motivation among patients. Rather than only seeking immediate relief from pain, patients can see regular visits as part of ongoing maintenance for their wellbeing. By highlighting the value of treatment through AI Posture Analysis, clinics can increase patient engagement, retention rates, and long-term value.
Testimonials from Clinics
Many clinics adopting the AI Posture Analysis report enhanced patient satisfaction, accompanied by increased repeat visits. Physicians appreciate being able to show patients concrete evidence of their progress, promoting a continual commitment to their health.
