Gait Monitoring Study.
Brief description of study
The purpose of the study is to learn about the gait characteristics of persons with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD). We also want to understand how we should design and implement a tool to monitor gait. To this end, the "Gait Monitoring Study" (a.k.a., AlzInsole) gathers requirements by interviewing patients, informal (e.g., family) caregivers, and healthcare professionals.
