System and method for gait monitoring and improvement

A method for modifying cueing intensity to correct a patient's gait comprising:

• selecting ranges of values for one or more cueing response variables for a cueing window;
• receiving a sample dataset from a wearable device;
• determining the existence of a cycle in a no correction frame, the no correction frame having outer bounds bordering a first of one or more degree of correction frames;
• determining a proportion of cycles of frames spent in each of the one or more degree of correction frames;
• determining a first condition of whether a number of the cycles of frames spent in the no correction frame is increasing;
• adjusting the outer bounds of the no correction frame based at least in part on the first condition;
• and
• providing a recommendation to adjust the ranges of values for the one or more cueing response variables for the cueing window.

A method for determining an activity type and performing cueing to correct a patient's gait comprising:

• receiving gait parameters for a patient, the gait parameters comprising at least one of physical parameters, temporal parameters, spatial parameters, and clearance parameters;
• initiating a step count program based at least in part on the gait parameters;
• receiving activity-related data;
• receiving first sensor data from a wearable device, the first sensor data comprising measured data relating to at least one of the gait parameters;
• processing the first sensor data to generate processed sensor data;
• evaluating an extent of changes measured by the wearable device based at least in part on the processed sensor data;
• determining the activity type for the wearable device based at least in part on the processed sensor data and the extent of changes, the activity type comprising at least one of walking movement, running movement, ramp movement, stair movement, and specialized movement;
• and
• performing cueing based on the activity type.
