The performance index is a total-body assessment tool that summarizes a patient’s performance in a comprehensive report, making it an ideal solution for both amateur and professional athletes looking to enhance their performance, by comparing their progress with that of high-performers, to obtain better results.
Focusing specifically on balance and proprioception allows to treat the musculoskeletal disorders that constitute some of the most common causes of injuries and occupational absenteeism.
The study
The performance index was developed through a close collaboration with the coaching and physiotherapy staff of a leading Italian soccer team that was assessed and treated over the course of a season.
The multidisciplinary team identified the functional areas with a decisive impact on an athlete’s physical performance and the best tests for assessing each one.
The performance index is available on hunova device as well as its orthopedic versions huno and huno S.
The technology has been integrated into the routine practice of hospitals and healthcare facilities specializing in orthopedics (including sports medicine), neurology and geriatrics worldwide.
The results
An effective solution for amateur and professional athletes, with the aim of increasing performance and comparing physical performance in order to optimize it or recover from an injury.
The performance index adapts well to a wide range of sports thanks to the following features:
• overall performance assessment
• graphical representation of the individual’s general physical condition
• rapid, non-invasive screening
• personalized training based on objective screening
