The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and suitability of accelerometer measurements on gait asymmetry and balance in stroke patients. This literature review uses accelerometers to search for static and dynamic balance and gait asymmetry in adults diagnosed with stroke and to refer to the 2018 paper from 2008. The results of the compilation of the paper were as follows. The balance of the accelerometers showed measurements similar to those of the previous BBS and TUG. In other words, using the accelerometer to measure the balance suggests that it can be clinically useful. Next, studies that analyzed the gait asymmetry of accelerometers indicated that the algorithm's limits for estimating time were insufficient, but that the reliability tool for measuring the gait asymmetry was proven. This result shows that it is possible to analyze walking patterns through an accelerometer in individuals with hemiparetic stroke.
