The aim of this review is to summarize that most relevant technologies used to evaluate gait
features and the associated algorithms that have shown promise to aid diagnosis and …

Background Quantitative gait analysis is essential for evaluating walking and running
patterns for markers of pathology, injury, or other gait characteristics. It is expected that the …

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are small wearable sensors that have tremendous
potential to be applied to clinical gait analysis. They allow objective evaluation of gait and …

Control of balance is complex and involves maintaining postures, facilitating movement, and
recovering equilibrium. Balance control consists of controlling the body center of mass over …

Introduction: The present review aims to provide an overview of the most common uses of
wearable inertial sensors in the field of clinical human movement analysis. Areas covered …

Freezing of gait (FOG) is a serious gait disturbance, common in mid-and late-stage
Parkinson's disease, that affects mobility and increases fall risk. Wearable sensors have …

Human movement has been the subject of investigation since the fifth century when early
scientists and researchers attempted to model the human musculoskeletal system. The …

Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a widely used clinical paradigm to evaluate balance and
mobility. Although TUG includes several complex subcomponents, namely: sit-to-stand, gait …

Freezing of gait (FOG) is common in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), is resistant to
treatment and negatively impacts quality of life. In this study an ambulatory FOG monitor was …
