Movement patterns during gait initiation in older adults with various stages of frailty: a biomechanical analysis
Abstract Background Gait initiation is challenging for older individuals with poor physical function, particularly for those with frailty. Frailty is a geriatric syndrome associated with increased risk of illness, falls, and functional decline. This study examines whether spatial and temporal parame...
