RESUMO
Wearable sensors have the potential to drastically improve gait rehabilitation and assessments. This is especially the case for lower limb prosthesis users as small wearables can provide useful information about in-socket conditions. Through a simple case study, we investigated the value of measuring in-socket forces in addition to gait parameters in gauging the effectiveness of a training intervention. The results showed that the additional objective information obtained through in-socket measurements can enhance our understanding of how a particular intervention affects both gait and socket comfort.
