Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR), sometimes known as physiatry or rehabilitative medicine, seeks to enhance, or ultimately, restore functional ability and the associated quality of life to those patients with physical impairments or disabilities affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons, whether impaired through injury, disease, or other disorder.
The Jameel Family’s involvement in this field dates to 2007, when, what is today the Abdul Latif Jameel Rehabilitation Hospital, began as a center to provide these services to the population in and around Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Our partnership with Japanese biomechanical innovator, Cyberdyne Inc., brought a new dimension to this in 2017, when we were the first to introduce their treatment for spinal injury into the country.
Cyberdyne is the world’s leading pioneer of wearable rehabilitative technology since 2004. HAL (the Hybrid Assistive Limb) is the world’s first AI-enabled ‘Wearable Cyborg’ that synchronizes with the wearer’s neurological signal that reflects their intention to move with the actions of the device.
Jameel Health was the first to introduce HAL and Cybernics Treatment into Saudi Arabia at the Abdul Latif Jameel Rehabilitation Hospital, Jeddah. These remarkable advances, that are approved and used in over 20 countries, help enable patients with a disability to regain their mobility.
