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 …

Background The six-minute walk (6MW) is a common walking outcome in multiple sclerosis
(MS) thought to measure fatigability in addition to overall walking disability. However, direct …

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) allow accurate quantification of gait impairment of people
with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). Nonetheless, it is not clear how IMU-based metrics might be …

Wearable devices equipped with inertial sensors enable objective gait assessment for
persons with multiple sclerosis (MS), with potential use in ambulatory care or home and …

This pilot study investigated the validity of the functional ambulatory profile (FAP) score from
the GAITRite™ electronic pathway in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) who had onset …

Background: The timed 25-foot walk (T25FW) is widely used as a clinic performance
measure, but has yet to be directly validated against gait speed in the home environment …

Laboratory gait analysis or three-dimensional gait analysis (3DGA), which uses motion
capture, force plates and electromyography (EMG), has allowed a better understanding of …

Background Gait is often impaired in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), but detailed
assessment of gait impairment in research and care remains challenging. In a previous pilot …

Background An alternative method suggested to assess changes in walking in people with
multiple sclerosis (PwMS) is evaluating gait variability. This is a credible option since gait …

The measurement of gait characteristics during a self-administered 2-minute walk test
(2MWT), in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), using a single body-worn device, has …
