摘要：

The role of physical activity amongst older people in inpatient rehabilitation settings has been little studied. Walking has a number of potential benefits for older people in rehabilitation but it is not known whether increased walking improves outcomes in this population. Until now mobility monitoring has not been possible in routine practice. Recently tri-axial accelerometers have been validated for ambulatory activity monitoring in older adults. Accelerometry has the potential to explore the role of walking in older patients in rehabilitation. Providing data regarding activity levels may improve patient motivation and assist clinicians with activity prescription. Future research could determine the relationship between activity levels and patient outcomes.
