Exploration of Fall-Evaluation Scores Using Clinical Tools with the Short-Form Berg Balance Scale and Timed Up and Go and Motion Detection Sensors

The results obtained by medical experts and inertial sensors via clinical tests to determine fall risks are compared. A clinical test is used to perform the whole timed up and go (TUG) test and segment-based TUG (sTUG) tests, considering various cutoff points. In this paper, (a) t-tests are used to...
