Multidimensional Measures of Physical Activity and Their Association with Gross Motor Capacity in Children and Adolescents with Cerebral Palsy

Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff

The current lack of adapted performance metrics leads clinicians to focus on what children with cerebral palsy (CP) do in a clinical setting, despite the ongoing debate on whether capacity (what they do at best) adequately reflects performance (what they d ...

Comparison of gait characteristics between clinical and daily life settings in children with cerebral palsy

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff

Gait assessments in standardized settings, as part of the clinical follow-up of children with cerebral palsy (CP), may not represent gait in daily life. This study aimed at comparing gait characteristics in laboratory and real life settings on the basis of ...

Gait analysis in children with cerebral palsy: bridging the gap between the laboratory and real life

Lena Carcreff

Like 17 million people worldwide, an individual with cerebral palsy (CP) does not have the opportunity to walk harmoniously in society due to long-life impairments in movement and posture. The natural course of CP can be modulated by treatments and therapi ...

Real-World Gait Bout Detection Using a Wrist Sensor: An Unsupervised Real-Life Validation

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Hooman Dejnabadi, Abolfazl Soltani

Gait bouts (GB), as a prominent indication of physical activity, contain valuable fundamental information closely associated with human & x2019;s health status. Therefore, objective assessment of the GB (e.g. detection, spatio-temporal analysis) during dai ...

Evaluation of 1-Year in-Home Monitoring Technology by Home-Dwelling Older Adults, Family Caregivers, and Nurses

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Philipp Buluschek

Introduction:Population aging is increasing the needs and costs of healthcare. Both frailty and the chronic diseases affecting older people reduce their ability to live independently. However, most older people prefer to age in their own homes. New develop ...

Control Strategies for Lower-limb Exoskeletons: from Full Mobilization to Assistance of Balance

Romain Pierre François Baud

Bipedal locomotion is a remarkable feature of humans. This skill is necessary for the activities of daily living. Unfortunately, many people only partially benefit from it or miss it entirely because of a disability. This may result in a slower gait, less ...

Neuromuscular Controller Embedded in a Powered Ankle Exoskeleton: Effects on Gait, Clinical Features and Subjective Perspective of Incomplete Spinal Cord Injured Subjects

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini

Powered exoskeletons are among the emerging technologies claiming to assist functional ambulation. The potential to adapt robotic assistance based on specific motor abilities of incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) subjects, is crucial to optimize Human-Ro ...

Recommender System for Responsive Engagement of Senior Adults in Daily Activities

Pearl Pu Faltings, Igor Kulev

Understanding and predicting how people change their behavior after an intervention from time series data is an important task for health recommender systems. This task is especially challenging when the time series data is frequently sampled. In this pape ...

Crossmodal Congruency Enhances Performance of Healthy Older Adults in Visual-Tactile Pattern Matching

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

One of the pivotal challenges of aging is to maintain independence in the activities of daily life. In order to adapt to changes in the environment, it is crucial to continuously process and accurately combine simultaneous input from different sensory syst ...

Gait in real world: validated algorithms for gait periods and speed estimation using a single wearable sensor

Abolfazl Soltani

Mobility concerns most daily tasks (e.g., householding, shopping), affecting life quality. Gait speed, recognized as the sixth vital sign, is a key to characterize mobility. It is also a primary outcome of many clinical interventions. Monitoring gait in un ...
