Prescribe FIT is a full-service remote patient monitoring (RPM) and virtual lifestyle health coaching solution designed specifically for orthopedic practices to optimize patients for surgery and improve musculoskeletal (MSK) health. Simple Lifestyle Changes Can Improve Multiple MSK Issues: - Weight loss is a top recommendation by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons for mitigating osteoarthritis of the knee in patients with BMI greater than or equal to 25. - The odds of sustaining an MSK injury are 15% greater if overweight and 48% greater for Class III obesity. - Every 1 pound of excess weight causes an additional 4 pounds of pressure on the knee joint and 10 pounds of pressure on the lower back. - A patient with obesity is more likely to experience the following complications after surgery: infection, poor wound healing, difficulty breathing, blood clots, or pulmonary embolism. In order to improve MSK issues and outcomes of orthopedic surgery, patients and practices must focus on healthy lifestyle changes. But generic weight loss advice won’t work. According to a 2019 study by Duke University, “the doctor should instead encourage patient participation in a specific program.” Doctors that gave specific advice that reinforced the comprehensive weight-loss program, such as encouraging patients to take calls from weight-loss coaches lost significantly more weight. This is why orthopedic practices are partnering with Prescribe FIT. Prescribe FIT is a simple solution to this complex problem.
