Predicting ambulatory energy expenditure in lower limb amputees using multi-sensor methods.

PURPOSE:To assess the validity of a derived algorithm, combining tri-axial accelerometry and heart rate (HR) data, compared to a research-grade multi-sensor physical activity device, for the estimation of ambulatory physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) in individuals with traumatic lower-limb...
