Based on the number of successfully completed STS transfers, success rates were calculated for the Five\u2010Chair Stand Test and the SW\u2010assisted STS transfers, and compared using the Wilcoxon signed\u2010rank test. User satisfaction was assessed using the Tele\u2010healthcare Satisfaction Questionnaire\u2010Wearable Technology (0\u201380\u2009points, higher score = higher satisfaction).
