Study Summary
The target population of this project is older people with high risks of falls. About 30% community-dwelling individuals over 65 years of age fall each year and the rate of fall related injuries leading to loss of function and independence increases with age. Falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries and the leading cause traumatic brain injury in older adults. Slip-related falls in older adults comprise 40% of outdoor falls and are the leading cause of hip fracture or traumatic head injury. In 2012, 2.4 million non-fatal falls were treated in emergency room visits with $30 billion dollars spent on direct medical costs. In addition to fractures and traumatic brain injury, nonfatal falls frequently lead to reduced levels of activity, fear of falling, and reduced quality of life. Clearly, advancing the predictive, preventative, and rehabilitative methods aimed at reducing the risk of injurious falls in this population is imperative. Although falls are multi-factorial in nature, there has been few individualized assessment of the biomechanical causes of falls. The purpose of this study is to conduct subject-specific training on older adults with fall risks with combined home-hospital rehabilitation. This project will involve rehabilitation interventions based on the characteristics of falling patterns and older adults with reduced capability controlling the balance. To conduct subject-specific fall prevention training. based on identified individual fall mechanisms.
