QTUG, is their proprietary technology for clinicians and researchers which uses body worn sensors combined with a standard clinical test (the Timed Up and Go - TUG) to better assess risk of falls, gait and mobility. www.kinesishealthtech.com/QTUGQTUG can be used for population level screening of mobility and falls risk as well as ongoing objective assessment for use in rehabilitation.In this episode Seamus discussed their latest product, Kinesis Balance,  a consumer friendly smartphone application for remote monitoring and self-assessment of balance and falls risk.  This new tech uses machine learning algorithms combined with questionnaires and wearable or smartphone sensors to provide reliable assessment of balance and falls risk in the home and give users more control and insight into their daily mobility and safety.  It is currently available for free in the Google Play store.Learn more about Kinesis and contact Seamus here: https://www.kinesis.ieThis episode can be played on all your favorite podcast players by searching Know Stroke Podcast.  The direct link to our podcast website is here:https://knowstrokepodcast.buzzsprout....Watch this episode on our YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/aggtlLGDZmYMusic Credit to JAKEEZo on Soundcloud  @user-257386777About this podcast:Welcome to the Know Stroke Podcast of Co-Founders David Dansereau and Michael Garrow to support the reach of our growing TeamEnable Us Community and the Mission of our EnableUs Digital Stroke Support Platform at enable4us.comWe get you caught up on the latest stroke science, worldwide community support collaborations and interview top researchers and health care experts in the field.
