Wearable Sensors Technology as a Tool for Discriminating Frailty Levels During Instrumented Gait Analysis

Wearable Sensors Technology as a Tool for Discriminating Frailty Levels During Instrumented Gait Analysis

Background and objectives: One of the greatest challenges facing the healthcare of the aging population is frailty. There is growing scientific evidence that gait assessment using wearable sensors could be used for prefrailty and frailty screening. The purpose of this study was to examine the abilit...
