Use of accelerometers in determining risk of falls in individuals post-stroke: A systematic review

CONCLUSION: Based on limited available evidence, clinicians should continue to perform a comprehensive examination and evaluation for fall risk, that includes the use of a combination of evidence-based outcome measures and gait characteristics to develop an individualized plan of care for individuals post-stroke. However, further research is necessary to determine the added value of accelerometers as well as type, applicability of data, and placement.PMID:37067051 | DOI:10.1177/02692155231168303
