Background The Timed Up and Go test is a well-known clinical test for assessing of mobility and fall risk. It has been shown that the IMU which use an accelerometer and gyroscope are capable of analysing the quantitative parameters of the sit-to-stand transition. Research question Which ...
A chair enabling standardized performance testing under Timed Up and Go procedures. The chair has a seat portion, a base portion, a support element, a force sensor, a timer, and a processor. The processor initiates timing of the standardized performance test in response to receiving an output ...
The time needed to complete the test was rounded to the nearest 0.1 s. Timed up-and-go: The patient was asked to rise up from a chair (seat 45 cm high, without armrests) as fast as possible, walk (without running) 3 m to a marked line on the floor, turn around, and ...
Functional measures included the Timed Up and Go test (TUG), the five times sit-to-stand test (5-STS) and handgrip strength. Gait parameters were obtained using the GAITRite® system. Results Participants with a fear of falling were frailer and presented more depressive symptoms and worse ...
Background: We investigated association of a score incorporating relative grip strength (RGS) and timed up and go (TUG) test with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in older Chinese. Methods: Both RGS and TUG scores were classified into tertiles (0
