Balance: The Sixth Vital Sign

Did you know there’s an FDA-cleared, Class II Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) you can use to accurately, objectively check and track balance?

Balance is a critical health biomarker.

Dr. Sanjeev Sharma, Chief Medical Officer of UpRight Science

Hi, I’m Dr. Sanjeev Sharma, the Chief Medical Officer at UpRight Science. I led the development of this technology and I’d like to tell you why every healthcare and medical technology professional should consider using it.

If you’re a primary care physician

Use our software on your smartphone to check the balance of every patient you see. And you should track it over time on our dashboard. So you’ll be able to see if anything has caused your patient’s balance to change – either positively or negatively.

If the trend turns negative, that is objective information you can weigh alongside everything else you know about the patient. And if you want to keep measuring between visits, just prescribe to have the patient test balance at home and use the appropriate CPT codes for billing. And the cost per doctor for unlimited testing works out to less than one dollar per patient per year.

If you’re a physical therapist

Check the balance of every client before therapy starts, and then regularly during treatment, so you have an objective measure of how their balance is changing as you go. And, of course, the testing has CPT codes.

If you’re a medical software provider

We can integrate our balance software directly into your platform – as we did with our first client, ImPACT Applications, Inc., the leader in concussion management tools. This gives you another FDA-cleared capability that all your clients should be able to take advantage of.
