Research and News | ARISE Walking System by BISEP Innovations

At Bisep Innovations, our dedication to advancing patient mobility is supported by rigorous research and testing. Our clinical trials and focus groups validate the effectiveness of the ARISE Walking System by BISEP Innovations in improving walking speed, distance, and confidence while reducing the fear of falling. These studies, conducted with renowned healthcare institutions, reinforce our commitment to providing innovative and reliable mobility solutions.

Our clinical research has shown that the ARISE:

24%
Increase in Walking Speed
Research has demonstrated that ARISE increases patients' walking speed by 24%. Users who utilized ARISE walked 24% faster compared to those employing the traditional method, in which a therapist follows behind with a wheelchair.
15%
Increase in Walking Distance
Research has shown that ARISE enables patients to improve their walking distance by 15%. Users who walked with ARISE achieved a 15% greater walking distance compared to those using the traditional method, where a therapist follows behind with a wheelchair
41%
Boost in Self-Confidence
Research indicates that ARISE significantly enhances patients' walking self-confidence by 41%. Users who utilized ARISE reported a 41% increase in walking self-confidence compared to those using the traditional approach, in which a therapist follows behind with a wheelchair.
20%
Reduction in Fear of Falling
Research has shown that ARISE effectively reduces patients' fear of falling by 20%. Users who walked with ARISE reported a 20% reduction in fear of falling compared to those who utilized the traditional method, where a therapist follows behind with a wheelchair.

Clinical Trials

Clinical Trial 1: Enhancing Patient Mobility at Niagara Region Long Term Care Homes

In partnership with Brock University, BISEP conducted a clinical trial at various Niagara Region Long Term Care Homes to evaluate the ARISE’s impact on patient mobility. The trial demonstrated significant improvements in walking safety, ambulation training, and patient outcomes, reducing fall risks and enhancing overall quality of life.

Clinical Trial 2: Workflow Implementation at Perley Health

This study, led by the University of Ottawa with AGE-WELL funding, focused on integrating ARISE into Perley Health's physiotherapy practices. The trial showed improved workflow efficiency, with positive feedback from both therapists and residents regarding the device's effectiveness and ease of use.

Clinical Trial 3: Feedback and Workflow Integration at Juravinski Hospital

At Juravinski Hospital in Hamilton, Bisep Innovations held a focus group with over 30 physiotherapists to gather feedback on the ARISE. The group provided valuable insights into the device's functionality, leading to further refinements and confirming its potential as an essential tool in physiotherapy practices.
