Reasons for Missing Ankle Accelerometer Data (n=459)

Category
Specific Reasons
N (%)
Had valid data -- 386 (84.1%)
Refusal Refused to wear the accelerometer 2 (0.4%)
Participant Compliance Lost or did not return the accelerometer 23 (5.0%)
Wore accelerometer for less than two days* 13 (2.8%)
Technical Problems Staff training (i.e.: improper programming and documentation) 24 (5.2%)
Device malfunction 11 (2.4%)
*

because the first and last days are truncated, if the participant wore the accelerometer for 2 or fewer days the data cannot be used
