Reliability of Wearable Sensors for Assessing Gait and Chair Stand Function at Home in People With Knee Osteoarthritis
Authors' conclusion
Our method of estimating spatiotemporal gait measures and chair stand duration function remotely was reliable, feasible, and acceptable in people with knee OA.
Study context
- Population
- Participants with knee osteoarthritis (OA) enrolled in a clinical trial of an exercise interventionbaseline data
- Participants
- 20 participants
- Comparison
- At-home vs laboratory wearable sensor assessment
- Outcome
- Reliability (ICCs, Bland-Altman) of sensor-derived spatiotemporal gait metrics and chair stand duration
Methodological detailstest-retest, at-home vs laboratory agreement, baseline data from an exercise intervention clinical trial
- Test-retest
- At-home vs laboratory agreement
- Baseline data from an exercise intervention clinical trial
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Test-retest reliability during at-home visit, intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) (good to excellent)
0.85-0.95
Agreement between at-home and laboratory visits, ICCs (moderate to good)
0.59-0.87
Further findings
Participant experience with at-home visit (survey)
- Participants reported a favorable experience during the at-home visit
