Trunk Accelerometry in Heel-Rise Test for Elderly Subjects

This study assesses the reliability and validity of trunk accelerometry-derived performance measurements, including peak force, time to peak force, rate of force development, total time, peak power, and average power in a standardized heel-rise test for elderly individuals. The research provides valuable insights into assessing physical performance in older populations using advanced technology.
