An evaluation of the 30-s chair stand test in older adults: frailty detection based on kinematic parameters from a single inertial unit
Background A growing interest in frailty syndrome exists because it is regarded as a major
predictor of co-morbidities and mortality in older populations. Nevertheless, frailty …

Kinect-based five-times-sit-to-stand test for clinical and in-home assessment of fall risk in older people
Background: Accidental falls remain an important problem in older people. The five-times-sit-
to-stand (5STS) test is commonly used as a functional test to assess fall risk. Recent …
