Are you interested in preventing falls? QTUG™ provides Falls risk score (a statistical estimate of a patients' risk of having a fall). It also provides a statistical estimate of Frailty. The Falls risk score and Frailty scores have been extensively validated by nine years of research.
Does your patient have a gait and mobility impairment? QTUG™ can identify specific gait and mobility problems by automatic, colour-coded comparison of patient's mobility (e.g. standing, walking turning) against average values for age and gender. The results are colour coded to highlight potential mobility issues.
QTUG™ can be used to determine how a patient responds to intervention, therapy or medication by analyzing statistical falls risk and frailty scores as well as gait and mobility data across multiple assessments. Trend Falls risk, Frailty and TUG test time data over time as well as view all historical tests.
Based on the American Geriatric Society/British Geriatric Society (AGS/BGS) guidelines for falls prevention. Record and store patients clinical falls risk factors and falls history for future reference and to inform intervention.
Quantitative assessment of each phase of the TUG (Timed Up and Go) test including, standing, sitting, walking and turning. Customise results by pinning most relevant data to the summary results screen. Data are colour-coded to highlight any statistical deviations in mobility from reference values.
Intuitive display of results, ability to track use of mobility aids, turn off timing limits or turn off falls-risk specific functionality.
Add notes on patient assessments. Export all patient results in Excel format. Create both patient-facing and clinician facing reports on each test, in PDF format. Securely and automatically back-up results to the cloud.
Using wearable inertial sensors to accurately assess gait and mobility impairment
Personally Identifiable Information (PII) are encrypted at rest and in transit
Secure, integrated solution to backup data to remote server via Wi-Fi
For ease of reference and onward referral
Stored in a portable lightweight casing for ease of use in the community

QTUG™ is very simple to use and uses sophisticated evidence-based analytics. The patented wearable sensor algorithm behind the QTUG™ technology provides immediate results, based on nine years of peer reviewed research. The technology has been extensively clinically validated through publication in top-tier international scientific journals.
QTUG™ has been validated both prospectively and cross-sectionally, and shown to provide an accurate measure of falls risk and frailty in older adults.
QTUG™ has been shown to provide valid and reliable measurement of gait and mobility in: patients with multiple sclerosis, older adults and healthy controls.
QTUG™ has been shown to be more accurate than standard measures - standard TUG test and Berg balance scale - in assessing risk of falling in older adults.
QTUG™ provides an assessment of falls risk and frailty, no more doubts about your mobility. QTUG™ is packed in a sturdy casing with a smooth handle to allow you to carry around easily. The equipments inside are protected by a special foam to absorb any shocks from outside. QTUG™ comes with a brand new tablet, two amazing sensors, additional tools and documentations to get you started.
This premium Samsung tablet running Android. Installed with the latest QTUG™ software, it is ready to run your first assessment. The tablet comes with a power adaptor and a USB cable.
Two highly sensitive, medical-grade wearable sensors and a specially designed charging dock are included in this package. The dock allows easy charging and resetting of the sensors.
To complete the content of this box, various tools are included as a measuring tape to measure the 3 metre distance and elasticated bandage to attach the sensors firmly to the legs.
"The QTUG tool is the future in assessing frailty and falls risk. The tool is an invaluable part of our falls prevention service allowing us to quickly and independently assess individuals in virtually any location after minimal training."
"Kinesis QTUG is objective and evidence-based. It allows us to provide best in class mobility and falls risk assessment by accurately and reliably identifying patients at risk of falls."
