Wearable sensors objectively measure gait parameters in Parkinson's disease

Kamiar Aminian

Distinct gait characteristics like short steps and shuffling gait are prototypical signs commonly observed in Parkinson's disease. Routinely assessed by observation through clinicians, gait is rated as part of categorical clinical scores. There is an incre ...

Instrumented shoes for daily activity monitoring in healthy and at risk populations

Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Daily activity reflects the health status of an individual. Ageing and disease drastically affect all dimensions of mobility, from the number of active bouts to their duration and intensity. Performing less activity leads to muscle deterioration and furthe ...

Reliability and validity of the inertial sensor-based Timed "Up and Go" test in individuals affected by stroke

Kamiar Aminian, Fabien Massé

The instrumented Timed "Up and Go" test (iTUG) has the potential for playing an important role in providing clinically useful information regarding an individual's balance and mobility that cannot be derived from the original single-outcome Timed "Up and G ...

Physical Behavior in Older Persons during Daily Life: Insights from Instrumented Shoes

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Activity level and gait parameters during daily life are important indicators for clinicians because they can provide critical insights into modifications of mobility and function over time. Wearable activity monitoring has been gaining momentum in daily l ...

Instrumented shoes for activity classification in the elderly

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Quantifying daily physical activity in older adults can provide relevant monitoring and diagnostic information about risk of fall and frailty. In this study, we introduce instrumented shoes capable of recording movement and foot loading data unobtrusively ...

Using inertial sensors for reconstructing 3D full-body movement in sports - possibilities and limitations on the example of alpine ski racing

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel

The present study investigates if inertial sensors could be used for reconstructing 3D full body movements in sports. On the example of alpine ski racing, it was demonstrated that inertial sensors allow computing meaningful parameters related to a skier’s ...

Improving activity recognition using a wearable barometric pressure sensor in mobility-impaired stroke patients

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Arash Arami, Fabien Massé

Background Stroke survivors often suffer from mobility deficits. Current clinical evaluation methods, including questionnaires and motor function tests, cannot provide an objective measure of the patients’ mobility in daily life. Physical activity performa ...
