Kinesiological analysis shows improved gait stability in elderly patients post-surgery, suggesting inertial measurement units are clinically useful in rehabilitation strategies.
Key Points
Significant improvements in lateral stability were observed with inertial measurement units during gait analysis.
Group A's frontal plane stability improved from 46.4% to 75.2%, and Group B's stability increased from 52.6% to 72.2%.
Gait analysis utilized wearables for real-time data, providing crucial insights into pelvic oscillations during walking.
Enhanced pelvic control during unassisted walking indicates that IMUs are effective in monitoring recovery in elderly orthopedic patients.
