Raft Digital Therapeutics is Helping Kids with SMA Win with a Physiotherapy Game


Listen Later

Physiotherapy is hard. It is even harder for children who get bored and tire quickly from the repetitive motions that doctors prescribe for them. Raft Digital Therapeutics (Raft) created an interactive video game to help children with a rare degenerative neuromuscular disease – Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) – to maintain their physical abilities, improve outcomes, and promote a higher quality of life. Their game has found success with children, parents, and clinicians.

Healthcare IT Today had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Geoff Frost, CEO of Raft and practicing physiatrist, to find out about their game, their recent successes, and their plans for the next year.
