    Accelerometer-based measures of free-living gait are capable of capturing stride-to-stride variability which may be clinically relevant to understanding mobility decline in patients awaiting arthroplasty

  • Nadim Ammoury

    Patients with end-stage knee OA with lower BMI and achieving a minimum recommended level of daily activity engage in more vigorous daily physical activities pre-surgery.

  • Adam Dorrance

    Wearable IMUs can be used remotely to collect free-living gait characteristics of patients awaiting knee arthroplasty surgery that may be complementary to in-clinic video-based gait outcomes.
