The correlation of gait and muscle activation characteristics with locomotion dysfunction grade in elderly individuals
As the LDG increased, the differences in spatiotemporal, kinematic and dynamic gait parameters between elderly individuals with motor dysfunction and the healthy individuals gradually increased. The muscle activation characteristics parameters showed an abnormal activation pattern. These parameters were correlated with the LDG, providing a more comprehensive and objective assessment of lower extremity motor function in elderly individuals, improve assessment accuracy, and help accurate rehabilitation.
