Description

The GAITRite® system is one of the gold standards for gait electronic analysis, especially for older adults. Previous GAITRite® systems were composed of an electronic roll-up walkway. Recently, a new GAITRite® electronic walkway, named CIRFACE, was commercialized. It is composed of a changeable association of stiff plates, unlike previous models. Are the gait parameters measured similar between these two walkways among older adults and according to the cognitive status, the history of falls, and the use of walking aids?
