HEPs are the backbone of physiotherapy outcomes, but paper printouts get lost and exercises get forgotten. Here's how Clinit delivers digital HEPs with video links directly to patients.
The Paper HEP Problem
Physiotherapists spend 5–10 minutes drawing stick figures or printing generic exercise sheets at the end of each session. Patients lose them, or fail to remember which exercises were modified. Adherence rates for paper-based HEPs are estimated at 30–50%.
Clinit's Digital HEP Builder
In the physiotherapy session tab, the clinician:
- Searches the exercise library (300+ exercises indexed by body region, diagnosis, and phase — acute, sub-acute, rehabilitation, return-to-sport)
- Sets sets, reps, hold time, rest period, and frequency for each exercise
- Adds clinician notes in plain language (e.g., "Stop if pain exceeds 4/10")
- Assigns the program — the patient receives it immediately via the patient portal app
Video Library
Each exercise in the library has an embedded video link. Patients see the video alongside their written instructions, dramatically reducing the "I wasn't sure how to do it" adherence barrier.
ROM Tracking
Range of motion measurements (13 joints, 26 movements) are entered at each visit using the body chart. The system plots ROM trends over the course of treatment, making progress visible for the patient and legible for the referring doctor.
Outcome Measures
Clinit supports VAS, ODI, DASH, Lysholm, KOOS, NPRS, and PSK — with longitudinal mini-charts per measure. Session-by-session progress is visible at a glance.
Discharge Planning
When a patient reaches their goal ROM or functional score, the system generates a discharge summary with pre/post outcome scores, the full HEP, and a home maintenance program that continues after formal physiotherapy ends.
