Autonomic nervous system and postural control regulation during orthostatic test as putative markers of physical resilience among community-dwelling older adults.

In addition to ANS regulation at rest and under stress, adaptation of postural control system to orthostasis may be used in quantifying older adults' physical resilience. Wearable sensors capturing stimulus-response patterns and natural fluctuations of body functions may provide opportunities to monitor and incorporate different subsystems' resilience also in free-living conditions.
