Smart. Simple. Supportive.
A Shared Mission for Ending Limb Loss
Proudly Serving Veterans
Orpyx proudly supports the Veterans Affairs’ (VA) National Initiative to End Diabetic Limb Loss. In alignment with Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service (PSAS), our remote patient pedal monitoring (RPPM) solution helps podiatrists deliver proactive, preventative care for Veterans with a PAVE Foot Risk Score 3.
The Orpyx Sensory Insole program combines advanced sensory insoles with remote patient monitoring to support proactive care. The system continuously monitors plantar pressure, temperature, and activity data, while our remote nursing team reviews trends and supports patient adherence.
For Veterans, the Orpyx system is built for daily life, easy to use with no charging required - so you can keep moving with confidence.
For Providers, we deliver trusted support that keeps you and your Veterans connected between medical visits.
The Growing Burden of Foot Health Management
75K Foot Wounds are Treated Annually
This is a growing challenge in the VA, reinforcing the critical need for prevention and early action.2
Foot Ulcers Cause 80% of Amputations
Most non-traumatic amputations start with a foot ulcer, making early detection and prevention critical to saving limbs and lives.
The Orpyx Sensory Insole Program
Empowering Veterans. Supporting Providers.
Our Between Visit Services provides trusted support that keeps you and your Veterans connected between visits, because your care doesn’t stop when the appointment ends.
Ongoing Personalized Coaching
U.S. based nurses support the Veteran’s foot care plan and help them make healthy changes that fit their lifestyle.
Flexible Communication Options
Every Veteran is assigned a remote nurse for personalized support via phone or text.
Proactive Behavior Modification
Our remote nurses spot concerns early and guide changes to help prevent foot complications and avoid serious interventions.
Scheduled and As-Needed Calls
Our remote nurses conduct monthly wellness calls to monitor and identify early foot health concerns before escalation.
Minimal Escalation
Only 4% of cases are escalated to the provider, as nurses support Veterans through early intervention and education.4
Actionable Insights
Multimodal insole data offers actionable insights to help inform the Veteran’s foot care plan.
Clinical Rounds
We host collaborative clinical rounds to interpret RPM data, leveraging informatics to uncover insights, guide decisions, and enhance outcomes.
Seamless, Secure Integration
Our program integrates seamlessly into your workflows, providing secure, encrypted, HIPAA compliant data.
The Orpyx Program is Backed by a Robust and Growing Body of Evidence
Backed by 12 publications, including a randomized controlled trial that demonstrated 86% reduction in DFU recurrence when the Orpyx technology* was worn 4.5+ hours a day.11
Veterans are highly engaged and adherent to the program averaging 17 days per month for 8 hours per day,12
49% of flags generated with once-daily temperature monitoring would have been wrongly flagged as a concern, compared to those generated using continuous temperature monitoring.13
Only 4% of concerning data trends require escalation to the provider, and 96% of identified trends are addressed between Orpyx Nurse, Veteran, and Orpyx algorithms.4
