Predictivity of daily gait speed using tri-axial accelerometers for two-year incident disability among Japanese older adults

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Gait speed is an important indicator of functional decline in older adults. Recently, daily gait speed has been assessed using accelerometers. However, it is unclear whether this parameter can predict the decline in functional abilities.

A machine learning approach for gait speed estimation using skin-mounted wearable sensors: From healthy controls to individuals with multiple sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Gait speed is a powerful clinical marker for mobility impairment in patients suffering from neurological disorders. However, assessment of gait speed in coordination with delivery of comprehensive care is usually constrained to clinical environments and ...

The Effect of Age on Gait Speed When Texting [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020
Texting while walking exerts a high cognitive load, and may be a sensitive test of the integrity of the cognitive–motor interface. We aimed to investigate the association between chronological age and gait speed while texting. A convenience sample of 308 community-dwellers was recruited: n ≥ 50 in each age group (20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59) and n = 100

Gait, mobility, and falls in older people [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
My doctoral thesis contributes to the understanding of gait, mobility, and falls in older people. All presented projects investigated the most prominent and sensitive markers for fall-related gait changes, that is gait velocity and gait variability ...

Responsiveness of Gait Speed to Physical Exercise Interventions in At-risk Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesAnnals of Geriatric Medicine and Research, 2017
Background : In at-risk older adults, gait speed is an important factor associated with quality of life and falling risk. In this study, we assessed whether therapeutic exercise could improve gait speed. Methods : We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate

Slow Gait Speed and Cardiac Rehabilitation Participation in Older Adults After Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundLack of participation in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and slow gait speed have both been associated with poor long‐term outcomes in older adults after acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

The association between cognitive impairment, gait speed, and Walk ratio

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023
BackgroundGait speed has been found to be associated with cognitive function. However, gait speed is an unspecific measure that may not be informative about gait patterns.
