2
00:00:04.504 --> 00:00:10.009
LIKE PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES.
AND A FAMILIAR NAME IN HOOSIER
SPORTS IS LEADING THE CHARGE:
FORMER INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

00:00:10.009 --> 00:00:15.048
QUARTERBACK JIM SORGI.
BUSINESS OF HEALTH REPORTER

PROTECTION ASSOCIATION RECORDED
MORE THAN 58-THOUSAND INJURIES
LAST YEAR AMONG FIREFIGHTERS IN

5
00:00:24.324 --> 00:00:29.362
THE LINE OF DUTY.
PROTEAM TACTICAL PERFORMANCE IS
USING A NEW TECHNOLOGY IN
INDIANA IT SAYS COULD HELP STOP

6
00:00:29.362 --> 00:00:33.566
THESE INJURIES BEFORE THEY
HAPPEN.
HERE TO TELL US MORE IS JIM
SORGI, THE CO-OWNER OF PROTEAM

7
00:00:33.566 --> 00:00:42.375
TACTICAL.
THANKS FOR COMING TO THE SHOW
JIM.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME

8
00:00:42.375 --> 00:00:49.048
BEFORE WE TALK ABOUT YOUR
TECHNOLOGY LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR
COMPANY AND THE PHILOSOPHY TO
TREAT FIRE FIGHTERS POLICE

9
00:00:49.048 --> 00:00:55.555
OFFICERS AND FIRST RESPONDERS
LIKE PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES.
EXPLAIN WHAT YOU MEAN BY THAT.
>> MY BACKGROUND IS IN

10
00:00:55.555 --> 00:01:01.795
PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL SIX YEARS
WITH THE COLTS AND ONE WITH THE
GIANTS.
HIT MY PARTNER HIS BEST BOTH'S

11
00:01:01.795 --> 00:01:08.201
BACKGROUND IS IN MAJOR LEAGUE
BASEBALL AND WE FEEL WORKED
REALLY WELL WITH PUBLIC SAFETY
WAS THE WAY ATHLETES TAKE

12
00:01:08.201 --> 00:01:16.309
ATHLETICS TAKE CARE OF INJURIES
FROM THE POINT OF INJURY TO BACK
TO THE FIELD AND WE FEEL THE WAY
ATHLETES GET IN THE TRAINING

13
00:01:16.309 --> 00:01:26.719
ROOM AND THEY SEE BY DOCTORS HOW
THEY ARE HANDLED BY DOCTORS JUST
SPEEDS UP THE RECOVERY AND IF
IT'S GIVEN TO HIGH LEVEL

14
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:34.194
ATHLETES WHY NOT PUBLIC SAFETY
AND FIREFIGHTERS AND THE PEOPLE
THAT TAKE CARE OF US ON A DAILY
BASIS.

15
00:01:34.194 --> 00:01:40.700
>> YOU'RE PHILOSOPHY EXTENDING
THAT TO PUBLIC SERVICE OFFICERS.
SO TELL US ABOUT THE NEW
TECHNOLOGY YOU ARE USING AND

16
00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:50.577
EXPLAIN WHAT IT IS.
>> IT IS A MARKET LIST FDA
APPROVED MEDICAL DEVICE AND WHAT
IT DOES IS IT ASSESSES MOVEMENT

17
00:01:50.577 --> 00:01:58.117
AND IT WILL ASSESS YOUR MOVEMENT
AND ABLE TO FIND EFFICIENCIES
AND GET SOME DATA AND WITH THAT
DATA WE CAN KIND OF ANALYZE

18
00:01:58.117 --> 00:02:04.557
WHERE WE HAVE DEFICIENCIES
THROUGHOUT THE BODY, WHERE WE
FIND THOSE DEFICIENCIES WE CAN
PREDICT INJURIES AND SOMETIMES

19
00:02:04.557 --> 00:02:19.138
BE ABLE TO PREVENT INJURIES FROM
OCCURRING AND THAT IS WHAT IS SO
SPECIAL ABOUT THIS MOTION
TECHNOLOGY IS ITS MARKER LISTEN

20
00:02:19.138 --> 00:02:21.274
PUTS A SKELETON ON THE HUMAN
BODY AND ABLE TO DICTATE MOTION
AND MOVEMENT WITHIN 1 MILLIMETER
OF ACCURACY.

21
00:02:21.274 --> 00:02:29.816
IT IS NICE TO HAVE THIS AND IT'S
NORMALLY PROVIDED TO HIGH LEVEL
ATHLETES AND THEIR MOVEMENTS,
THEIR SKILL SETS AND WHAT THEY

22
00:02:29.816 --> 00:02:38.191
DO FOR WORK IS VERY SIMILAR TO
THE MOVEMENTS OF AN ATHLETE.
>> WE ARE SHOWING SOME VIDEOS OF
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND FIRST

23
00:02:38.191 --> 00:02:45.532
PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT TO USE
IT SO IT FOCUSES ON THE MOTION
ASSESSMENT AND TELL US QUICKLY
WHAT THAT IS LIKE AND HOW YOU

24
00:02:45.532 --> 00:02:50.970
CREATE A PLAN FROM THAT
ASSESSMENT.
>> IT'S A BUNCH OF MOVEMENTS
FROM RANGE OF MOTION TO TWISTING

25
00:02:50.970 --> 00:03:00.780
AND MOVING AND JUMPING AND WE
ARE ABLE TO SEE THE OUTPUT, THE
FORCE THE BODY IS USING AND IF
THERE ARE DEFICIENCIES AND IF WE

26
00:03:00.780 --> 00:03:06.419
ARE HAVING A LITTLE IN BALANCE
SOMEWHERE AND WE ARE ABLE TO
TAKE THAT DATA WE ARE ABLE TO
GIVE THESE OFFICERS MEN AND

27
00:03:06.419 --> 00:03:13.960
WOMEN THAT GO OUT THERE AND
RISKED THEIR LIVES CORRECTIVES
TO IMPROVE THAT IMBALANCE AND
NOT ONLY HELP THEM GET TO THE

28
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:22.468
JOB HEALTHY AND READY TO GO IF
NEEDED AND CALLED UPON, BUT ALSO
WHEN THEY RETIRE THROUGH HELP
THEM LIVE WITHOUT PAIN SO THEY

29
00:03:22.468 --> 00:03:30.843
CAN ENJOY RETIREMENT.
>> NOTRE DAME ATHLETICS USING IT
AND THE RAVENS.
SO YOUR COMPANY FOCUSES ON

30
00:03:30.843 --> 00:03:35.214
REHAB.
BUT THIS MOTION REALLY GETS IN
FRONT OF THE PROBLEM AND IT'S
MORE ABOUT PREVENTION.

31
00:03:35.214 --> 00:03:43.690
>> IT'S ABOUT PREVENTION AND
PROTEAM TACTICAL PERFORMANCE WAS
FIRST ABOUT REHAB AND THE POINT
OF INJURY TO GETTING MEN AND

32
00:03:43.690 --> 00:03:50.697
WOMEN BACK TO WORK AND TREATING
THESE MEN AND WOMEN JUST LIKE
ATHLETES FROM AN INJURY TO BACK
TO WORK AND DARI (PH) MOTION

33
00:03:50.697 --> 00:03:56.235
MOTION IS MORE OF A PREVENTION
TO THAT.
WE CAN PREDICT AND PREVENT, BUT
IF WE CAN MAKE THESE MEN AND

34
00:03:56.235 --> 00:04:04.110
WOMEN GOOD MOVERS AND IF THEY DO
GET INJURED WE CAN RE- HAVE THEM
AND GET THEM BETTER QUICKER.
>> INTERESTING THE TECHNOLOGY IS

35
00:04:04.110 --> 00:04:09.716
PORTABLE SO YOU CAN TAKE IT
PLACES AND EXPLAIN WHAT YOUR
PLAN FOR THE FUTURE AS FAR AS
TAKING AT OTHER PLACES.

36
00:04:09.716 --> 00:04:16.255
>> WE PLAN ON SERVICING FIRE
DEPARTMENTS AND EMS AND POLICE
DEPARTMENTS THROUGHOUT THE STATE
OF INDIANA AND THAT WAS GREAT IS

37
00:04:16.255 --> 00:04:22.061
THEY ARE PROACTIVE IN THEIR
APPROACH WITH INJURIES AND WE
WERE ABLE TO TAKE IT TO THE
FIREHOUSE AND ASSESS PEOPLE

38
00:04:22.061 --> 00:04:30.136
RIGHT THERE, SO IT IS PORTABLE
WHICH IS 85, SEVEN MINUTE
ASSESSMENT AND RELATIVELY QUICK
AND WE CAN GET THE RESULTS ON

39
00:04:30.136 --> 00:04:36.242
THE SPOT AND WE ANALYZE THE DATA
AND COME UP WITH A CORRECTIVE
AND TALK TO THEM ABOUT WHAT'S
GOING ON GIVE THEM THE, CORRECT

40
00:04:36.242 --> 00:04:43.916
OF THEM PUT THEM ON THE PATH OF
BECOMING A BETTER MOVER.
>> YOUR COMPANY IS ONE YEAR OLD
AND YOU SEE SOME GROWTH.

41
00:04:43.916 --> 00:04:50.823
>> THE FIRST LOCATION WE DO A
LOT OF WORK WITH THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT BUT OUR FIRST
STANDALONE LOCATION WILL BE IN

42
00:04:50.823 --> 00:04:57.196
GRANT PARK AT THE PACERS
ATHLETIC CENTER AND WE WILL
SERVICE A LOT OF THE OUTLYING
TOWNSHIPS AND COUNTIES AT THAT

43
00:04:57.196 --> 00:04:58.197
FACILITY WITH HOPES OF CREATING
