Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- In-shoe plantar pressures, measured with a pressure insole (Pedar-X): 1. Peak Pressures (PP) 2. Pressure Time Integral (PTI) - Balance with and without perturbations, measured with clinical tests and the force plate treadmill (and Vicon system) of the GRAIL lab of the Center for Rehabilitation of the UMCG, Beatrixoord: 1. Time taken to stand up-walk- and sit (TUG) 2. Root Mean Square (RMS) of net anterior-posterior (AP) & medio-lateral (ML) direction during eyes open and closed condition (static balance) 3. Margins of stability during normal gait, AP & ML perturbations (dynamic balance)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
kinetics and kinematics of the lower extremity
