Wireless accelerometers with various operating ranges have been used to measure tibial acceleration. Accelerometers with a low operating range output distorted signals and have been found to result in inaccurate measurements of peaks. A restoration algorithm using spline interpolation has been proposed to restore the distorted signal. This algorithm has been validated for axial peaks within the range of 15.0–15.9 g. However, the accuracy of peaks of higher magnitude and the resultant peaks have not been reported. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the measurement agreement of the restored peaks using a low-range accelerometer (±16 g) against peaks sampled using a high-range accelerometer (±200 g). The measurement agreement of both the axial and resultant peaks were examined. In total, 24 runners were equipped with 2 tri-axial accelerometers at their tibia and completed an outdoor running assessment. The accelerometer with an operating range of ±200 g was used as reference. The results of this study showed an average difference of −1.40 ± 4.52 g and −1.23 ± 5.48 g for axial and resultant peaks. Based on our findings, the restoration algorithm could skew data and potentially lead to incorrect conclusions if used without caution. |
