Validation of an Accelerometer to Quantify a Comprehensive Battery of Gait Characteristics in Healthy Older Adults and Parkinson's Disease: Toward Clinical and at Home Use

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify a comprehensive range of gait characteristics measured using a single triaxial accelerometer-based monitor, and examine outcomes and monitor performance in measuring gait in older adults and those with Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free-living monitoring of Parkinson's disease: Lessons from the field

TL;DR: Key recommendations include adopting a multidisciplinary approach for standardizing definitions, protocols, and outcomes and robust validation of developed algorithms and sensor‐based metrics is required along with testing of utility before widespread clinical adoption of wearable technology can be realized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free-living gait characteristics in ageing and Parkinson's disease: impact of environment and ambulatory bout length.

TL;DR: Encouraging results are provided to support the use of a single BWM for free-living gait evaluation in people with PD with potential for research and clinical application.
