Gait analysis of patients with distal radius fracture by using a novel laser Timed Up-and-Go system

Postmenopausal women are at risk of fall and fracture with the physical decline. Distal radius fracture (DRF) is considered as the primary fragility fracture, and women with this fracture showed poor results in the usual Timed Up-and-Go (TUG) test, indicating a decline in balance and physical ability. The detailed physical characteristics of female DRF patients have not been extensively examined. Is the novel laser TUG system able to detect and...
