Gait and balance were assessed with 3 different active tests. The SBT instructed participants to stand as still as possible for 30 seconds with both feet on the ground and with their eyes open. The UTT prompted participants to perform at least 5 U-turns on an even ground 4 meters apart within 60 seconds and, thus, assesses both gait and dynamic balance. By comparison, the 2 MWT assessed gait during straight walking without turning on an even ground for 2 minutes.

Gait disturbances are common in people with Parkinson disease (PD), and include shuffling gait, shortened step length, altered automaticity, decreased arm swing, and freezing of gait [2]. These represent a particularly disabling group of symptoms, significantly hampering the quality of life of people with PD [3] and increasing the risk of falls [4].
Daily steps are an easy-to-collect and useful measure of ambulatory activity and mobility [5].

This can be in direct terms, for example monitoring systems that assist care professionals carrying out their duties within care settings [12] and also indirectly with at-home monitoring devices designed to reduce the occurrence of injuries by, for example, assessing gait [13,14] and predicting fall events [3,15], with the goal of reducing the potential burden on secondary care and ultimately reducing the burden on the care-home sector and keeping people at home, healthy, and independent for longer [9,16,17]

Smartphone and wearable sensor-based technology have been increasingly used to advance the detection and monitoring of various diseases [10], for example, smartphone apps can monitor gait and balance changes and provide valuable insights for patients with progressive Parkinson disease [11].

Specifically, the primary focus of the study revolves around enhancing balance, and gait, and alleviating the fear of falling among elderly patients with PD. This is gauged through the utilization of the 3 POMA scales (POMA balance, POMA Gait, and POMA Total) after the 10 treatment sessions, as a result of the Irish dance intervention.

Studies [20-24] have shown that patients with KOA are prone to abnormal gait or gait dysfunction due to pain, stiffness, limited joint range of motion, and other symptoms, and their gait patterns are specifically characterized by unstable gait and high variability.

In this study, the gait analyzer’s output was validated using a gait lab equipped with a force plate and motion capture system to ensure accuracy. Cross-validation revealed an average deviation of 9% between the gait analyzer’s results and those obtained in the gait lab for key parameters such as cadence, toe-off moment, and swing power.
For this study, the gait analyzer was used to measure gait mechanics, including cadence, toe-off moment, and swing power.

Mobility, which includes gait and balance functions, requires the integration of sensory input, motor planning, and coordination. Gait alterations and balance issues are common in individuals aged 65 years and older [5,6] and both significantly increase the risk of falls [7]. RPM of gait and balance in home settings may identify mobility problems that are not readily apparent in controlled settings [8].

Implementation and Evaluation of a Gait Training Assistant for the Use of Crutches: Usability Study
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a custom-designed gait training assistant (GTA) in teaching the proper use of crutches. The primary objectives of this study are to determine (1) the capability of the digital assistant to impart proper crutch-walking skills using a 3-point gait, (2) patient receptiveness toward the digital walking assistant, and (3) the competence of the digital crutch-walking training assistant in comparison to a human physiotherapist.

Long-term monitoring of gait patterns and plantar-pressure distributions via insoles are increasingly popular ways to study behavior and activity in the field and in the everyday lives of people and patients, including healing, personalized prevention, and treatment or disease progression [1-3]. In recent years, the usability of instrumented insoles for gait analyses has increased.
