Within-day test-retest reliability of an accelerometer-based method for registration of step time symmetry during stair descent after ACL reconstruction and in healthy subjects.

Conclusion: Mean step times measured with a body-fixed IMU during stair descent and limb symmetry indexes calculated from these mean step times are precise and reliable during early post-operative rehabilitation after ACLR and in healthy subjects. PMID: 32027201 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
