ARGO PLUS

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the Argo Plus system, a strength platform with a postural functional score designed to assist clinicians in diagnosing and quantifying functional deficits related to various pathologies that cause instability, such as musculoskeletal disorders, neurological diseases, visual deficits, proprioception disorders, and labyrinth disorders. It is particularly focused on assessing the risk of falling, especially in the elderly population.
Diagnostic Path: The system uses the SPF Index and ROC criteria to identify deficits, distinguishing between normal and dysfunctional subjects. It evaluates central/proprioceptive disorders using the Romberg quotient and identifies potential vestibular, neurological, visual, and musculoskeletal issues through frequency analysis and control deficits.
Key Parameters: The system provides original parameters like Sway Density and Postural Functional Score, alongside traditional indexes, to offer high clinical significance. It includes parameters such as Mean Stay Time, Sway Path, and Sway Area for balance evaluation.
Platform Specifications: The platform features an aluminum honeycomb structure with high resonance frequency and minimal deformation. It includes four load cells with a capacity of 150 Kg, a sampling rate of 100 Hz, and Bluetooth connectivity to a control module. The control module is equipped with a Broadcom microprocessor, 24” LCD display, and multiple USB ports.
Software and Certification: The proprietary software includes data protection, test acquisition, patient database, and assisted reporting. It is certified as a Class I(m) medical device under Directive 93/42/EEC and complies with EN 13485:2012 standards.
Clinical Relevance: The document references various studies and literature supporting the system's efficacy in identifying frailty and balance disorders, highlighting its application in preventive medicine and rehabilitation.

ARGO PLUS-1

THE DIAGNOSTIC PATH Recognition of possible deficit via the reading of the SPF Index for which, using methods derived from the ROC criteria (Receiver Operating Characteristics), it was possible to define a cut-off threshold between a normal and dysfunctional subject at a recurrence of 9 parameters (on 63) that deviate by more than 2σ from the average and are therefore considered abnormal. BEYOND BALANCE STRENGTH PLATFORM WITH POSTURAL FUNCTIONAL SCORE for control in the treatment of pathologies that cause instability Recognition of the type of Central/Proprioceptive disorder by reading the Romberg quotient relative to the Sway Path and Sway Area parameters. Recognition of morphologies that may suggest: • Vestibular deficit • Deficiency of possible central neurological origin • Visual deficit • Presence of musculoskeletal foci in relation to the harmonics of the Frequency Analysis • Presence of tone abnormalities • Presence of control deficits. Argo Plus uses a proprietary algorithm that guides the Clinician to the assisted diagnosis, enabling them to identify and quantify the functional deficits that relate to pathologies, such as: • Musculoskeletal disorders • Acute and chronic neurological diseases • Visual deficit • PROPRIOCEPTION disorders • Labyrinth disorders Diagnostic processing and evaluation software, in addition to the most commonly used indexes, offers original parameters and high clinical significance - in particular Sway Density and the Postural Functional Score - with a report wizard. Sway Path (mm/sec) PARAMETRI DI SWAY DENSITY Mean Spatial Distance (mm) The combination of abnormalities detected by Argo Plus allows to objectify and quantify the risk of falling, particularly relevant in the elderly population.

ARGO PLUS-2

is composed of the STRENGTH PLATFORM (600x600mm), 4 load cells with vertical axis powered via a buffer battery and a CONTROL CONSOLE, equipped with a 24” LCD screen, mounted on a trolley that allows it to be used near the platform itself. Reporting is carried out by working on the console that generates reports in pdf format. • For constructive choices that allow you to provide data with extreme precision and repeatability: the entire measurement and processing chain has been subjected to rigorous metrology testing • For the amount of parameters made available for clinical assessment • For assisted...
