Abstract (sommario):

Falls are the primary cause of injuries among older adults, and accidents that result from falls can lead to personal suffering and extensive societal burdens. The overall aims of this thesis were to explore and describe falls and fall prevention strategies in community-dwelling older adults and to evaluate a fall prevention home exercise program, the Otago Exercise Program (OEP), with or without motivational interviewing (MI). Methods: Qualitative and quantitative research methods were uses. The designs were as follows: a cross-sectional, descriptive and comparative study (study I); a descrip

Abstract (sommario):

Falls are the most frequently reported incidents among hospitalized patients in the United States with at least 4 falls per 1,000 patient days occurring annually. Falls are related to high rates of mortality and morbidity and high hospital costs. The purpose of this project was to evaluate a fall prevention quality initiative to reduce falls in an acute care facility by educating staff on an evidence-based fall prevention protocol.

Abstract (sommario):

Mobility safety, especially fall prevention, plays a significant role in successful aging for older adults. Fall preventive programs aim to reduce risks for mortality from fall-related injuries among older adults. However, the covariation between personal perceptions of falls and factors and confidence of self-management in falls (CSMoF) is still under-studied despite its importance to fall prevention. Using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model, this dissertation aimed to investigate the relative contribution of CSMoF in relation to fall risk self

Abstract (sommario):

Falls among hospitalized elderly patients are a safety concern for health care organizations and the patients they serve, but falls can be prevented through the team effort of nurses and other health care professions to promote safety within the organization. The project site was experiencing an increase in the number of patients falls and identified the need for staff education related to assessment and intervention to prevent patient falls in the elderly population. Thus, the practice-focused question for this project was whether an educational program on evidence-based fall prevention strat

Abstract (sommario):

Falls and related injuries have affected residents in long-term care facilities for many years. It has been well-established that patient fall prevention includes staff education and hourly rounding in addition to adequate risk assessment. These steps, taken together, have the potential to decrease a 52.7% fall rate on the long-term care pilot unit. The purpose of this quality improvement project was to: (a) educate staff on the process of properly performing hourly rounding and (b) and achieve a decreased incidence of falls from the current fall rate.

Older people often have different, more complex health service needs for which geriatric services exist. However, the rapidly expanding older CLD population may have specific needs or outgrow specialty specific services. Falls are more common with increasing age in the general population and represent a substantial burden for individuals, families, society and the economy. People with CLD have multipl

Background and Purpose: Falls are the leading cause of accidental death among older adults. Reducing falls risk is one of the major safety concerns for older persons. More than one-third of people 65 years and older will experience one or more falls per year and nearly half of the people over 80 years of age will fall at least once each year. A key initial step in reducing falls is identifying those persons at highest risk so that they can be assessed and prescribed appropriate interventions.

Introduction. Patient falls occur frequently in the acute hospital setting and are one of the most common adverse events experienced by hospitalised patients. In-hospital falls have negative outcomes for patients, causing injuries in up to half of those who fall. Falls in hospital create additional costs for health services due to increased length of stay (LOS), and greater health resource use. In contrast to much research focused on in-hospital falls worldwide, little is known about the rate, contributing factors and outcomes of inpatient falls in the state sector in South African hospitals.

This study argues that American foreign policy (AFP) represented continuity rather than change from the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989 to the fall of Baghdad in 2003. During this time, the US pursued a hegemonic strategy that aimed to preserve its unipolar moment in the new American century. However, this argument is challenged by two sets of AFP literature. The first sees the 1990s as a period of inconsistency in AFP strategy, and the second identifies post-9/11 policy as a revolutionary change in AFP.

This thesis examined the characteristics of falls leading to emergency department visits among middle-aged adults in Queensland. The study improved the understanding of the determinants, circumstances, and consequences of falls among middle-aged adults. It provided evidence to justify the need to target this age group for fall prevention, and has significant implications for developing evidence-based intervention policies and programs that aim to reduce the future burden of falls in this population in later life.
