The Relationship Between Daily Activity Level, Posture Distribution, Stepping Patterns, and Cadence in the BCS70 Cohort (2024)
Journal Article
Speirs, C., Ahmadi, M., Hamer, M., Stamatakis, E., & Granat, M. (2024). The Relationship Between Daily Activity Level, Posture Distribution, Stepping Patterns, and Cadence in the BCS70 Cohort. Sensors, 24(24), 8135. https://doi.org/10.3390/s24248135

This study investigated the relationship between stepping-defined daily activity levels, time spent in different postures, and the patterns and intensities of stepping behaviour. Using a thigh-mounted triaxial accelerometer, physical activity data fr...

The Use Of Real-world Physical Behaviour Information To Support Clinical Decision-making Process In Lower-limb Prosthetic Care (2024)
Thesis
Patricks, V. The Use Of Real-world Physical Behaviour Information To Support Clinical Decision-making Process In Lower-limb Prosthetic Care. (Thesis). University of Salford

A limited understanding of activity levels and functional status in people with lower limb amputation can adversely impact the healthcare delivery and the individual’s quality of life. Current methods to fit prosthetic limbs and evaluate their impact...

Reliability of the Star Excursion Balance Test with End-Stage Knee Osteoarthritis Patients and Its Responsiveness Following Total Knee Arthroplasty (2024)
Journal Article

Background/Objectives: The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) is a simple and feasible tool for assessing dynamic balance in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). It has an advantage as it replicates dynamic balance better than other static bal...

Clinicians' perspectives of activity monitoring applications and facilitators for lower-limb prosthetic service provision (2024)
Journal Article
Patricks, V., Granat, M., Twiste, M., Curtin, S., & Worsley, P. (2024). Clinicians' perspectives of activity monitoring applications and facilitators for lower-limb prosthetic service provision. Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, https://doi.org/10.1097/JPO.0000000000000518

Introduction Clinicians involved in lower-limb prosthetic provision and care do not have an objective method for measuring patients' real-world prosthesis usage. This results in a poor understanding of the full picture of the patient's everyday life...

The Effect of Using Anchored Wake Time to Derive 24‐h Device Measured Circadian Physical Behavior Patterns (2024)
Journal Article
Granat, M., Ahmadi, M., Stamatakis, E., & Hamer, M. (2024). The Effect of Using Anchored Wake Time to Derive 24‐h Device Measured Circadian Physical Behavior Patterns. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 34(7), e14684. https://doi.org/10.1111/sms.14684

Introduction: Tailoring physical activity interventions to individual chronotypes and preferences by time of day could promote more effective and sustainable behavior change; however, our understanding of circadian physical behavior patterns is very...
