Instrumental and Non-Instrumental Evaluation of 4-Meter Walking Speed in Older Individuals
Abstract
Manual measurement of 4-meter gait speed by a stopwatch is the gold standard test for functional assessment in older adults. However, the accuracy of this technique may be biased by several factors, including intra- and inter-operator variability.
