Description

ObjectivesKnee Osteoarthritis prevalence increase is due to rise of life expectancy and ageing of the population. Ageing also affects gait and balance leading to increase of fall risk. To track this risk, newer and portable devices using accelerometers and gyroscopes are used in monitoring falls, because postural stability and balance compromise increase risk of falls (RF).
