Association Between Free-Living Sit-to-Stand Transition Characteristics, and Lower-Extremity Performance, Fear of Falling, and Stair Negotiation Difficulties Among Community-Dwelling 75 to 85-Year-Old Adults

Abstract: Background Good sit-to-stand (STS) performance is an important factor in maintaining functional independence. This study investigated whether free-living STS transition volume and intensity, assessed by a thigh-worn accelerometer, is associated with characteristics related to functional independence. Methods Free-living thigh-worn accelerometry was recorded continuously for 3–7 days in a population-based sample of 75-, 80-, a… Show more

“…Future studies could examine whether STS performance differs between working days and days off. Second, although we have found the accuracy of identifying STS transitions to be greater than 90% and the angular velocity determination to be accurate (14,15), there are always misclassifications of free-living movements. There is no way to know for sure whether a behavior that appears to be an STS transition in the free-living accelerometer data is actually an STS transition and whether an exceptional technique (e.g., arm utilization, seat height, assistance from another person) was used to perform a given STS transition.…”

“…The number of STS was determined as the mean of the transitions (number) per complete monitoring day. No participant exceeded 4 rad·s −1 in the laboratory (highest was 3.89 rad·s −1 ), and therefore we filtered out any STS transitions above 4 rad·s −1 from the data before the estimation of the maximum free-living angular velocity (14). A total of 73 transitions were removed because of this (from 64 participants), and this was 0.036% of all 97,401 transitions detected in this data set.…”
