Methodological aspects for accelerometer-based assessment of physical activity in heart failure and health

Abstract Background For valid accelerometer-assessed physical activity (PA) data, several methodological aspects should be considered. We aimed to 1) visualize the applicability of absolute accelerometer cut-offs to classify PA intensity, 2) verify recommendations to measure PA over 7 days by examin...
