a computer connected to the gyroscopes by Bluetooth® (Horlings et al., 2008). Body- sway in the mediolateral (roll) and anterior-posterior (pitch) plane is measured using the two gyroscopes under three different protocols, including a two-legged stance condition, a one-legged stance step condition, and a walking condition. As primary outcome measure for the body-sway test we used the pitch and roll velocity score under the two-legged stance condition (Table 6). As secondary outcome measures we used pitch and roll angle under two-legged stance condition, pitch and roll velocity under one-legged stance step condition, pitch and roll angle under one-legged stance step condition, pitch and roll velocity under walking condition, and pitch and roll angle under walking condition. To complete a condition was de ned as a participant could perform all seperate body-sway measurements included in that condition for at least 5 seconds.
