Technology is also an ally for people who are undergoing rehabilitation, whether through physical therapy or even more invasive treatments, such as catheterization. New Cycle has developed a video game that literally gets children to \u201cplay\u201d and do the necessary physical therapy activities. In the game, it is possible to create an avatar of the child's choice. There are two circuits where the character goes through obstacles that require the requested efforts\u2014meaning that on a treadmill, the child walks and makes the movements necessary for their rehabilitation.<\/p>\n
\n
\u201cWe are launching a new technology here at the fair, which is game therapy. A child needs to be a child, and nothing is more intuitive than encouraging a child to do physical therapy exercises through a video game; they play and do physical therapy at the same time, explains Higor Pantale\u00e3o, general director of New Cycle.<\/p>\n

Another innovation in the healthcare sector is being showcased at the Coloplast booth, which brought the \u201cSpeediCatch\u201d hydrophilic catheter. This product allows individuals to perform intermittent catheterization anywhere, as it is compact and features a coating that facilitates insertion and removal from the urethra, while reducing the risk of infections and urethral injury.<\/p>\n
\n
\u201cToday, the most common catheter on the market is made of PVC. Because it is plastic, it is a dry material that ends up causing pain and even injuries to patients. Our device is lubricated and maintains this lubrication both upon entry and exit from the urethra. So, anyone with sensitivity ends up not feeling pain, and as a result, it reduces risks such as infections that can lead to more serious illnesses. And since the device is compact, it ends up providing more freedom and autonomy for people who use the catheter, while also offering a better quality of life, said Juliana Araos, manager of Coloplast's Ativa Program.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
