Background and purpose People with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) often report walking
limitations even when the gold standard Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) indicates …

Ambulatory impairment is a prevalent consequence of multiple sclerosis (MS) that is often
measured in controlled contexts using performance tests that lack ecological validity. This …

Objective: People with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) often experience a decline in gait
performance, which can compromise their independence and increase falls. Ankle joint …

Subtle gait and balance dysfunction is a precursor to loss of mobility in multiple sclerosis
(MS). Biomechanical assessments using advanced gait and balance analysis technologies …

Clinical trials need to specify which specific gait characteristics to monitor as mobility
measures for each neurological disorder. As a first step, this study aimed to investigate a set …

Background Walking speed is an important measure of gait impairment in multiple sclerosis
(MS). The clinical assessment of walking speed requires dedicated time, space, and …

Background There is increased interest in the application of smartphone applications and
wearable motion sensors among multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. Objective This study …

Wearable sensors facilitate the evaluation of gait and balance impairment in the free-living
environment, often with observation periods spanning weeks, months, and even years. Data …

Background People living with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience impairments in gait and
mobility, that are not fully captured with manually timed walking tests or rating scales …

The aim of this work was to determine whether wearable inertial measurement units (IMUs)
could detect gait improvements across different disability groups of people with Multiple …
