A comparative study on approximate entropy measure and poincaré plot indexes of minimum foot clearance variability in the elderly during walking

BACKGROUND: Trip-related falls which is a major problem in the elderly population, might be linked to declines in the balance control function due to ageing. Minimum foot clearance (MFC) which provides a more sensitive measure of the motor function of the locomotor system, has been identified as a p...
