Tango Belt by ActiveProtective Now Available in Select Regions

CONSHOHOCKEN, Pennsylvania—ActiveProtective announced the FDA-authorized medical device the Tango Belt is now available for sale in select regions nationwide. Using motion-sensing technology, the Tango Belt is clinically proven to detect a serious fall in progress and within milliseconds deploy an airbag to cushion the hips from impact and reduce injury.

“This launch marks a pivotal advancement for those seeking evidence-based solutions that go beyond fall prevention to actively reduce fall injuries in older adults.” said Wamis Singhatat, CEO of ActiveProtective.

Designed for comfort, daily wear and mobility, the Tango Belt is prescription-only and when used with its companion mobile app, the Tango Belt automatically sends a notification when a fall is detected. During a multicenter premarket clinical study, used alongside standard-of-care the Tango Belt demonstrated paradigm-shifting outcomes, achieving a 91% reduction in fall-induced hip fractures in at-risk older adults as compared to the standard of care for fall prevention alone.

“This launch marks a pivotal advancement for those seeking evidence-based solutions that go beyond fall prevention to actively reduce fall injuries in older adults,” said Singhatat. “We’re working tirelessly to ensure wider availability in the coming months.”

ActiveProtective is now seeking interested senior living owner/operators, health care systems and providers, particularly those in value-based care models that proactively “screen and intervene” to mitigate risk and avoid costly episodes of care. Orders include access to personalized onboarding and support to ensure every wearer gets the most from their device.
