Independent and sensitive gait parameters for objective evaluation in knee and hip osteoarthritis using wearable sensors

Abstract Background Although it is well-established that osteoarthritis (OA) impairs daily-life gait, objective gait assessments are not part of routine clinical evaluation. Wearable inertial sensors provide an easily accessible and fast way to routinely evaluate gait quality in clinical settings. H...
