| Research Abstract |
In 2005, the motion analyzers were implemented and the documents on "fall prevention" and "gait training" for elderly people were reviewed. As a result, it was found out that, while the analyses on walking characteristics of elderly people have been well under way, there has been no evaluation from the viewpoint of daily activities or assessment from a comprehensive perspective regarding going outside and participating in local activities. Therefore, we created trial plans of a comprehensive assessment that includes a gait analysis for evaluation as well as the trial plans of self-care behavior assessment that use them.
