Assessment of Accelerometers for Measuring Upper-Extremity Physical Activity.
OBJECTIVE The overarching goal of this study was to examine the use of triaxial accelerometers in measuring upper-extremity motions to monitor upper-extremity-exercise compliance. There were multiple questions investigated, but the primary objective was to investigate the correlation between visually observed arm motions and triaxial accelerometer activity counts to establish fundamental activi...
متن کاملPhysical activity assessment with accelerometers in children.
Accelerometers for movement registration have the potential to reflect the volume, pattern, intensity, type, and energy expenditure of physical activity(1,2). Developments are still ongoing with regard to reduction of the size of the instruments, lengthening of battery life and translation of the output to meaningful information for the user. Instruments with the capacity for most or all functi...
متن کاملAccelerometers for measuring physical activity behavior in Indian children.
OBJECTIVE To examine the validity of accelerometers for characterizing habitual physical activity patterns in Indian children. DESIGN Cohort study. SETTING Holdsworth Memorial Hospital, Mysore. SUBJECTS Children (N=103, mean age 6.6 years) selected from an ongoing birth cohort study. METHODS Physical activity was measured over 7 days using accelerometers (MTI Actigraph) and concurrent p...
متن کاملMeasuring Children's Physical Activity: Compliance Using Skin-Taped Accelerometers.
INTRODUCTION Accelerometer-based physical activity monitoring has become the method of choice in many large-scale physical activity (PA) studies. However, there is an ongoing debate regarding the placement of the device, the determination of device wear time, and how to solve a lack of participant compliance. The aim of this study was to assess the compliance of Axivity AX3 accelerometers taped...
متن کاملComparison of Upper Extremity Motor Recovery of Stroke Patients with Actual Physical Activity in Their Daily Lives Measured with Accelerometers
[Purpose] This study compared the upper extremity recovery of stroke patients with the amount of their upper extremity use in real life as measured by accelerometers. [Subjects] Forty inpatients who had had a stroke were recruited. [Methods] The subjects were divided into two groups by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Motor Function (FMA) score, a moderately recovered group and a well recovered gro...
