In 2024, GOGOA heralded a new era in robotic neurorehabilitation by integrating Movex Clinics Bilbao into the Quirónsalud Bizkaia Hospital in Erandio. This strategic alliance not only strengthens the provision of specialised services in the region but also grants patients access to innovative treatments within a premier hospital setting. This collaboration reaffirms the leadership of GOGOA and Movex Clinics as luminaries in the healthcare and rehabilitation technology sectors.
A Benchmark Facility in the Region
The Quirónsalud Bizkaia Hospital has inaugurated a state-of-the-art Robotic Neurorehabilitation Unit, further cementing Movex Clinics’ position as an unrivalled leader in advanced neurorehabilitation therapies across the Basque Country. Developed in partnership with GOGOA, this facility represents a paradigm shift in neurological rehabilitation treatments. Equipped with cutting-edge technologies, including robotic exoskeletons for both upper and lower limbs, virtual and augmented reality systems, balance platforms, and neural plasticity stimulators, the unit offers bespoke therapies meticulously tailored to meet the individual needs of each patient.
The unit is designed to address a broad spectrum of conditions, including strokes, spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, ALS, and other neurodegenerative diseases. This comprehensive and progressive approach not only enhances patients' quality of life but also expedites recovery timelines and fosters greater functional independence.
Innovation at the Service of Patients
This neurorehabilitation unit is distinguished not only by its groundbreaking technology but also by its unwavering patient-centred ethos.
“With this unit, we provide advanced tools that significantly ease our patients’ recovery journey, reaffirming our commitment to delivering premium and personalised healthcare,” remarks Dr. Irune Cachorro, Medical Director of Quirónsalud Bizkaia Hospital.
A standout feature is the HANK exoskeleton, a pivotal device in motor rehabilitation. Certified with the CE mark as a medical device, it facilitates intensive, repetitive functional movements, stimulating neuroplasticity and promoting more rapid motor relearning. Furthermore, these devices collect real-time performance data, enabling precise adjustments to optimise therapeutic outcomes.
Technology Designed for the Future
The unit also boasts pioneering devices such as the vagus nerve stimulator, a non-invasive apparatus designed to alleviate fatigue and enhance motor relearning capabilities following severe neurological injuries. Complementing this are virtual reality platforms and robotic exoskeletons for upper limbs, which aid in the recovery of arm and hand mobility within a meticulously controlled clinical environment.
Sara García, a physiotherapy specialist and head of the unit, emphasises: “With GOGOA’s devices, we have successfully replicated the benefits of aquatic rehabilitation in a far more accessible and efficient clinical setting.” Additionally, the integration of interactive and gamified systems leveraging virtual reality elevates patient motivation and enriches their rehabilitation experience.
A Partnership Driving Leadership
The collaboration between Quirónsalud Bizkaia Hospital and GOGOA Mobility Robots has culminated in a one-of-a-kind unit that seamlessly blends state-of-the-art technology with a bespoke, human-centric approach. This initiative not only reinforces Movex Clinics and GOGOA’s standing as trailblazers in robotic neurorehabilitation but also underscores Quirónsalud Group’s commitment to innovation and excellence in healthcare.
