GaitSmart Achieves Major Digital Health Milestone with Official SNOMED CT Coding Designation
LONDON, UK — [24/06/2026] — Dynamic Metrics Ltd, the developer behind GaitSmart, the world’s leading portable digital gait analysis system, today announced that the technology has been officially assigned a SNOMED CT (Systematised Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms) code.
This key regulatory and technical milestone allows healthcare providers to seamlessly integrate GaitSmart’s objective mobility data and rehabilitation tracking directly into Electronic Health Records (EHRs) across the NHS and global healthcare systems.
Standardising Mobility Data in Primary Care
As healthcare systems shift toward proactive, data-driven preventative care, the inclusion of GaitSmart into the SNOMED CT terminology framework bridges a critical gap in musculoskeletal (MSK) and frailty pathways.
Previously, tracking a patient’s walking pattern, joint angles, and rehabilitation progress required narrative text or disjointed documentation. With a dedicated SNOMED CT code, clinicians, physiotherapists, and healthcare assistants can now log GaitSmart assessment results and intervention outcomes as standardised, structured data.
“Securing a SNOMED CT code is a massive leap forward for GaitSmart and the wider digital health landscape,” said Dr. Diana Hodgins CEO at Dynamic Metrics. “It transforms our gold-standard gait data into a universally recognised clinical language. For healthcare providers, this means zero-friction EHR integration, eliminated administrative burden, and the ability to track population-level frailty and falls-risk data with total precision.”
Driving Efficiency in the Frailty and Falls Pathway
GaitSmart uses wearable, wireless sensors to perform a highly accurate 10-minute gait analysis during a short walk. The system then utilizes AI to generate a personalized exercise rehabilitation plan tailored to the patient’s specific muscle deficiencies.
The new SNOMED CT designation enhances the delivery of this care in several key ways:
- Seamless EHR Interoperability: Enables instant mapping to major clinical systems (such as EMIS, SystmOne, Epic, and Oracle Health/Cerner), ensuring care teams have immediate visibility into a patient’s mobility status.
- Objective Auditing & Reporting: Simplifies reporting for Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and Primary Care Networks (PCNs) tracking the effectiveness of proactive frailty interventions.
- Empowering the Wider Workforce: Because GaitSmart can be deployed by a Healthcare Assistant (HCA) rather than requiring a specialist physiotherapist, the ability to instantly SNOMED-code the data at the point of care frees up specialized clinical resources.
This milestone builds upon GaitSmart’s existing clinical validation, including its review by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) under Medtech Innovation Briefing [MIB283], which highlighted its cost-saving potential and efficacy in treating gait and mobility issues for adults at risk of falls.
About GaitSmart
Developed by Dynamic Metrics Ltd, GaitSmart is a portable, sensor-based tool that measures gait kinematics and provides recommended strength and balance exercises in an easy-to-understand format. Deployed widely across primary, secondary, and community care settings, GaitSmart empowers individuals suffering from osteoarthritis, frailty, or recovering from joint replacements to safely improve their mobility, regain independence, and reduce their risk of falls.
