Until now, the lens of ageism has not been applied to address this gap. The goals of this study were: to voice the perspectives and experiences …

Background To gain insight into the role of plantar intrinsic foot muscles in fall-related gait parameters in older adults, it is fundamental to assess foot muscles separately. Ultrasonography is considered a promising instrument to quantify the strength capacity of individual muscles by assessing their …

Background The plantar intrinsic foot muscles (PIFMs) have a role in dynamic functions, such as balance and propulsion, which are vital to walking. These muscles atrophy in older adults and therefore this population, which is at high risk to falling, may benefit from strengthening these muscles in order …

Background and Objectives: Involving older persons in the design process of digital technology (DT) promotes the development of technologies that are appealing, beneficial, and used. However, negative discourse on aging and ageism are potential underlying factors that could influence which and how DTs …

Het Platform Inzet van Technologie voor Gezondheid en Welzijn (PIT) beoogt bij te dragen aan de duurzame implementatie van technologische innovaties in (gezondheids)zorg en welzijn (digitale zorg en ondersteuning). In deze kennisagenda bestaan twee inhoudelijke hoofdthema's beschreven: 1) implementatie …

Background and purpose Deterioration of physical functioning after stroke in the long term is regarded as a major problem. Currently, the relationship between “peoples'” movement behavior patterns (the composition of sedentary behavior and physical activity during waking hours) directly after stroke …

Background and purpose The aim of this study is to investigate changes in movement behaviors, sedentary behavior and physical activity, and to identify potential movement behavior trajectory subgroups within the first two months after discharge from the hospital to the home setting in first-time stroke …
