The research question

How is mobility and gait performance affected in a person with sarcopenia or suspected sarcopenia?

A functional assessment focused on gait and mobility patterns associated with sarcopenia. It does not diagnose sarcopenia from IMU data alone.

ParticipantsOlder adults under sarcopenia or geriatric assessment.
Minimum sampleIndividual clinical assessment: N = 1. Research cohorts: sample size defined by the study design.
DurationProtocol-defined individual assessment and monitoring.
Research environments
Gait laboratoryGeriatric or rehabilitation clinic
Technology configuration

Measurement follows the task

The technology path shown here is the approved structure for this service. The exact protocol is configured around the research question, environment and participant flow.

01 · CoreIMU

Gait, sit-to-stand, turning and functional mobility.

02 · OptionalEMG

When muscle activation is part of the functional question.

Typical protocol · Health

How this study is executed.

The protocol below reflects the service definition developed for Neuro Garage. Final details are confirmed before execution.

01

Measure normal gait and sit-to-stand.

02

Assess turning and functional mobility.

03

Add repeated walking or safe fatigue task when relevant.

04

Quantify slowness and variability.

05

Integrate with specialist evaluation of strength and muscle status.
