Providing knee health screening and health education workshops to enhance health awareness and self-management skills of the middle-aged and elderly

The venture aims to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven gait analysis app on mobile devices to enable cost-effective knee osteoarthritis (KOA) screening in the community, thus providing an inexpensive, fast and straightforward method for risk assessment and early detection of KOA.

Six health education workshops will be held to promote awareness and self-management skills on KOA for different risk groups.

It is expected that 100 health-conscious and pain-free middle-aged and elderly people, 40 individuals with knee problems and 20 family caregivers of those patients will benefit.
