  1. Legend: CV = Coefficient of variation reported as a percentage. Cadence refers to number of steps per minute. The two measurements reported as <0.1 contained CVs which were below 0.001. A pre-established level of <10 % was used as a threshold for determining appropriate variance in gait measures
