@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd This is a follow up to our 2019 paper which raised concerns that common GRF, impact, load rate, acceleration & tibial shock metrics are often being misused & misinterpreted in scientific studies & commercial #wearables that seek to track injury risk.

@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd Here we share progress on using wearable sensors signals (from IMU + pressure insole), multi-sensor algorithms, physics-based #musculoskeletal modeling & machine learning to more accurately monitor tibial load, & expected bone microdamage due to this loading. #biomechanics
3/
@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd I encourage readers to check out Appendix B which many people may find eye-opening as it illustrates practical implications & consequences when using different #wearable sensor algorithms to try to track tissue-level loading & damage to structures inside the body #biomechanics
4/
@EmilyMatijevich @leonscottmd Overall the findings suggest to me that w/ the right wearable sensors & algorithms, & proper validation, we can develop #wearables that monitor tissue-level loads outside the lab; opening new opportunities to advance science, clinical care, sport performance & societal health
