Power of Gait Analysis to Predict and Monitor Health Conditions with Tomer Shussman OneStep

Empowered Patient Podcast

Tomer Shussman, the Co-Founder and CEO of OneStep, is at the forefront of motion intelligence and gait analysis. OneStep provides a smartphone app that monitors movement and provides real-time data about gait patterns and changes over time. The system can predict and prevent conditions like falls, provide information about overall health, and reveal early warning signs for Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and other aging-related diseases. Integrating OneStep's gait analysis data with Epic electronic health records allows healthcare providers to streamline documentation and leverage gait data to provide immediate actionable feedback to patients.

Tomer explains, "When we started OneStep, we started with physical therapy and rehabilitation, particularly after knee replacements, hip replacements, and injuries of all kinds. But since then, we now have customers and partners who work with us on fall prevention, essentially identifying and quantifying the risk of falling through gait analysis. Our partners work with us on using gait as a biofeedback tool for dosing the level of chemotherapy."

"We recently launched a cognitive decline score that measures and quantifies the cognitive impact on gait in cases like Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, and dementia by looking at the differences between conscious and unconscious gait. And this is just scratching the surface. These are all things that are already commercialized. We have so much more in the pipeline that we’re currently researching."

"What we’ve been able to add to it is that we have customers and partners conducting a Timed Up and Go Test through OneStep. What we’ve been able to add to it from a clinical perspective is parameters like the base width - is the patient walking on a very wide base or a very narrow base, the step length, and the step length asymmetry."
