Table 1 Summary of the gait measures
From: SPARC: a new approach to quantifying gait smoothness in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Gait measures | Description |
|---|---|
SPARC(-Acc, -V, -AP, −ML & -Gyro, -Yaw, −Roll, -Pitch) | Spectral arc length (unitless) |
Harmonic Ratios (V, AP, ML) | Measure of step to step symmetry (unitless) |
Mean Gait Speed | Mean gait speed (m/s) |
Stride time mean | Mean stride time (s) |
Stride time variability | Coefficient of variation of the stride time (%) |
