Intento SA

Wearable solutions for the rehabilitation of paralyzed stroke patients

Intento is an award-winning spin-off company from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), developing a solution for the rehabilitation of upper limbs after stroke.

Intento has been acquired by MindMaze in July 2018, complementing its portfolio with Intento PRO, our product designed to treat severely impaired patients.

Intento PRO gives patients control of their arm, enabling them to move and train again. Thanks to the delivery of electrical stimulation, meaningful upper-limb movements can be generated.

Our therapy is delivered according to an evidence-based treatment protocol which demonstrated stronger efficacy at impairment reduction than dose-matched standard care. A larger multi-centre study is currently underway in Switzerland.
